Dharma says you know Ashok is most deserving to become Samrat, Bindu says I cant be biased with others, the one who deserves to be Samrat will become Samrat, Dharma says you promised me to give what I want, Bindu says I promised Dharma whom I loved but you are just selfish lady, I came to you as doctor told me that you need my assistance but I wont come to you now, he leaves, it was not Dharma but Charu imposing as Dharma, she says Bindu drank from Dharma’s glass and its effect is that now whenever I want, Bindu will see Dhrma in me, I will look like Dharma to him, he brought Dharma and his son to palace with much respect but he will throw them out soon.

People complains to Bindu that Agradoot is attacking us, help us, Bindu says no one is allowed to hurt my nation, Ashok can take his side but for me Agradoot is terrorist, I gave him chance to come and meet me but his intentions are to kill people and rule, I pronounce him as betrayer of Magadh, I want him alive or dead.

Ashok is taking baby to Ahenkara, Soldier’s wife and other soldiers come in his way and has sword in their hands, Ashok puts baby on floor and acts like surrendering but he attacks soldiers, takes baby from there and hides, soldiers start fighting him and leaves from there, Ashok comes out and says to baby that I will soon take you to your sister.

Bindu says I feel Chanakya should have been here, Dharma comes there and says if you dont want to make AShok your heir then.. Bindu says its about Magadh’s future and I will choose the one who is most deserving, Dharma says if you cant fulfill this then fulfill my other wish, I want another palace for me and Ashok, Bindu ask why? Dharma says I have lived a difficult life for 14 years and here I feel like someone is favoring me when I eat food, I feel like Ashok is being used as common kid here, I dont want to live like beggars anymore, I dont want to ask for anything now, I want to live with respect, Bindu ask if anything has happened to you? Dharma says if you cant give me rights then Ashok can snatch his rights too, I have trained him that much, Bindu says I cant believe Dharma you are saying this, he leaves, it was Charu who was imposing as Dharma, Bindu was seeing Dharma in Charu as he is under influence of black magic.

Soldier announces that anyone who catches Agradoot alive or dead will get reward, Ashok listens this and says all are hating Agradoot, Bindu wanted to talk to Agradoot but he is thinking wrong about him too, once I give Ahenkara his brother back then I will tell truth to Bindu.

Ahenkara also listens announcement about Agradoot and says if I did mistake by trusting Agradoot? will he be able to protect my brother? I should have told everything to Ashok, Sushim comes there and ask Ashok or Agradoot? Ahenkara is shocked to see him, Sushim gets angry on her and grabs her from neck, he says what you thought that I will not know anything? I can recognize betrayers even if they are in dasi’s attire, flashback shows how Sushim had seen her in dasi’s attire when she was coming back to palace and how he got to know from soldier that Ahenkara went to meet Agradoot, fb ends, Sushim says I sent your brother away to punish you but you have confirmed your brother’s death by asking Agradoot’s help.

Bindu recalls Dharma’s weird behavior and is tensed, Charu comes there, Bindu says I need silence, I want to take rest, Charu says I married you first, I have spent most time with you and I know when you think what, I am your partner in life so you can talk to me, Bindu says I never thought Dharma will change this much, Charu says its situation that changes people, Dharma is not from royal family, she and Ashok have got royalties suddenly so they are not able to handle it, which mother doesnt want her son to get everything in life? I just want you to spend time with Dharma so she will become fine, Bindu thinks that everything has changed in palace, Dharma has become greedy and Charu has become calm and sincere.

PRECAP- Sushim is about to attack Agradoot but Ahenkara pulls him away, Sushim get hit by sword in his belly, all are shocked.

Episode 203 - 9th November 2015        

Ahankara hangs on the window still. Ahankara requests Sushim to not do this with her. Please help me. Sushim says I am helping you only. It will pain just a little. All your pains will go away afterwards. She cries out in pain as he pours oil on her hands from a diya kept nearby. Sushim enjoys it. She is lossening her grip on the window. Sushim says people will think of it as an accident. No one will doubt that I killed you. She agrees to do whatever he will ask from her. Ashoka/Agradoot reaches there. He pushes Sushim and pulls Ahankara up. She hugs the baby. Ashoka/Agradoot and Sushim stand face to face. Sushim was expecting him only. He takes out his sword from the sheath. Your truth will come out before everyone tonight. Ashoka/Agradoot replies that time will tell, whose truth will come out. They both fight with each other. Sushim knows Ashoka/Agradoot cannot kill him. Ashoka/Agradoot says no one will save you tonight. Ahankara looks on in shock as both the men fight. Ashoka/Agradoot covers Sushim’s mouth. He thinks that he dint want to break any rules but he forced him to do it. He beats Sushim, whose mouth is still covered with the cloth. Ashoka/Agradoot stops him from getting up. He also pours oil from the diya. This is for cheating the one who loved you immensely! The next one is for separating a little kid from his sister. Ahankara looks on in shock. Sushim tries to attack Ashoka/Agradoot but fails in all his attempts. He drops a vase intentionally down the window. A soldier looks at the window. Ashoka/Agradoot hits Sushim’s head on the window.

Bindu asks Charumita if she came here for some special reason. She apologizes to him on Sushim’s behalf. But his intention was right, and in Magadh’s favour, all the time. Agradoot tried to instigate the citizens against Sushim. He succeeded in the same. Ashoka too got under his influence. Agradoot is showing his true colours to everyone now. They realise it that Agradoot is their enemy, not friend. If everyone would have understood it earlier itself then Sushim wouldn’t have to do all this. He has proved that he is capable to rule in future.

The soldier comes to update Bindu about Agradoot. He was about to throw Sushim out of the window. Bindu and Charumita head upstairs along with a few soldiers. Ashoka/Agradoot continues to hit Sushim. Bindu knocks at the door. Ahankara asks Ashoka/Agradoot to escpae from the window. Ashoka/Agradoot refuses. Tonight I will tell the entire truth to Samrat. Ahankara denies. No one does justice here. Don’t do this mistake. I am telling you, come with me. Ahankara notices Sushim picking up a knife. She calls out Agradoot, and pulls him aside. She picks up a knife kept in the fruits tray nearby. She stabs Sushim. Sushim falls on the floor. Bindu orders the soldiers to break open the door. Ashoka kneels down next to his brother. I wont let anything happen to you. Ahankara fears for her life. If Samrat finds out that I did this then he will kill me, just like he killed my mother. Please help me. Ashoka assures her that Samrat wont give her any punishment. We will tell everything to Samrat. Everyone gets in. Charumita takes away Sushim along with the help of a few soldiers.

Mahamadhya points at Ashoka/Agradoot. He has been against Sushim since the beginning. He only attacked Sushim. He wanted to kill him. Bindu picks up his sword. He acts as if he will kill Agradoot but removes the veil from Agradoot’s face with its help. He is shocked to know that it is actually Ashoka. Everyone is shocked to see him as well. Bindu is still in disbelief. Helena too wonders why Ashoka will have to do it. Bindu asks Ashoka why he did so. Ashoka replies that he wanted to tell him what all happened in his absence. Mahamadhya stops him. Everyone knows what you have done by becoming Agradoot. Your truth is out in the open. Helena wants to hear Ashoka’s story but Bindu is not interested. Who hurt Sushim?

Charumita cries seeing her son all quiet. Vaid ji tells her that he has lost lot of blood. It is becoming impossible to stop the flow. Charumita asks him to speak to her once. Tell me everything is fine. She is shocked to know that Vaid ji will be giving her son more pain to stop the blood from flowing. My son is already in a lot of pain. He makes her understand that this is the only way to help him.

Mahamadhya says the killer is holding the knife in his hand. Bindu says I know my son. He can never hurt his brother. There was someone else other than both the brothers. I know who did this. I should have known that a serpent is a serpent after all! I dint believe it earlier but today it has been proved, a traitor’s blood makes a traitor too! I wish I had heard Sushim. I should have punished you (ahankara) then only. I dint expect it that you were looking for revenge. We welcomed you open heartedly. My son loved you; trusted you. You tried to kill him? He tries to attack on Ahankara but Ashoka stops him using that bloodied knife.

Dharma wakes up. How did I come here? She thinks of Ashoka.

Bindu looks at his son in shock. Ashoka says Ahankara is not to be blamed. I have hurt my brother. Bindu is left speechless.

Precap: Bindu slaps Ashoka. Dharma walks forward but falls down because of Bindu. Ashoka calls out angrily for his father. He holds the knife at his father’s neck.

Episode 204 - 10th November 2015        

Bindu confirms with Ahankara. Is it true? Ahankara nods. This is the truth. She is in tears. Ashoka accepts his crime. Dharma is in the corridor. Bindu slaps Ashoka. Dharma stops in shock as she sees her husband and son thus.

Charumita is pained to see her son in pain. Why is your treatment not helping my son? vaid assures her that he is doing the best. Charumita calls it insufficient attempt. Nothing should happen to my son. You will have to pay for it, if anything happens to my son.

Dharma asks Bindu why he had to raise his hand on Ashoka. Dharma walks forward but falls down as Bindu blocks her way. Ashoka calls out angrily for his father. He holds the knife at his father’s neck. This makes Bindu all the angrier. Dharma calls out for her son to stop. Ashoka drops the knife. Bindu looks hurt. Dharma asks Ashoka to say sorry to his father. Ashoka sadly folds his hands before his father. Please forgive me father. Mahamadhya says your crime is unpardonable. You attacked Samrat. That person deserves the utmost punishment. He orders the soldiers to arrest Ashoka. Dharma pleads against it but Bindu stays quiet. The soldiers take Ashoka away followed by Mahamadhya.

Bindu thinks of all the happy moments that he had spent with Ashoka; how he had helped him in the past; he thinks of both his sons. Dharma cries for Ashoka. She requests Bindu to stop Ashoka. He raised the weapon in anger. He cannot hurt anyone. Bindu shares that Ashoka hit his elder brother. He even accepted his crime before everyone. My son is on his deathbed today because of your son! He walks away. Helena too leaves. Dharma cannot believe it. Samrat cannot say so. He might be mistaken.

Vaid ji continues to treat Sushim. He has to insert lots of pin in Sushim’s body for the same. Bindu is taken aback to see him thus. Charumita cries. Please save my son Samrat. Bindu comforts her. vaid ji says the situation is critical. Charumita asks for a promise from Bindu. Nothing will happen to Sushim, right? Bindu answers in affirmative.

Dharma asks Ashoka what the truth is. I know why you had to become Agradoot, but you cannot kill anyone. I will never believe it. Ashoka sticks to his words. Sushim was attacking Ahankara and her brother. I lost my cool and hit him. She keeps his hand on her head. Now tell me the truth. Ashoka takes his hand away. Truth wont change if you will ask me again and again. He turns his face to the other side. I know I have hurt you and father a lot. You both have been disappointed and embarrassed. You had earlier told me, you stop thinking while holding a weapon. The same happened with me. I had completely forgotten that it was my brother before me, and not an enemy. Please forgive me. He turns but doesn’t find his mother standing there. He again says sorry.

Dharma asks Acharya about what happened. He says maybe Ashoka was upset over whatever happened with you. He was disturbed. Dharma understands that he might be in pain, but he cannot hurt his brother; loot people or kill anyone. Acharya fears the punishment. Dharma requests him to save Ashoka. Please save him. Acharya hopes he didnt delay in helping Ashoka.

Mahamadhya says now no one can save Ashoka. He pointed a weapon at Samrat. We only have to prove it that he had expectations. He wanted to rule. This is what drove him to this. Charumita wants to create so much hatred in Bindu’s heart so he doesn’t even melt towards Ashoka. I will not spare him. It is time for Dharma and Ashoka’s death. I will play my last cards now. She leaves.

Ahankara apologizes to Ashoka. You did so much for me, yet I cheated you. I cheated our love. Ashoka is confused. I never loved you. Ahankara looks at him in shock. She steps back. Ashoka continues, I know I am hurting you by saying this truth. But trust me, I never saw you that ways. I knew your feelings even when your alliance was fixed with brother. I always respected you. She asks him why he risked his life for her then. He says you called me friend once. I was respecting that relation. I thought it is my duty to take care of you and protect you. You lost your parents because of me only. Ahankara wont be able to live on his pity and debt. I am going to tell everything to Samrat. Ashoka holds her hand so as to stop her. You wont do anything like that. She removes his hand. You lost the right to make decisions for my life. Till date you did what you felt was right. Now I will do what I think is right. He fails in stopping her.

Dharma requests Bindu to have mercy on his son. I am to be blamed, not my son. How can you be so strict with him? I shouldn’t have kept quiet the day he told me he hates Sushim; the day he told me he wont let Sushim rule. I shouldn’t have kept quiet the day he told me he will become Agradoot and show Sushim he is much more powerful than Sushim. The mirror depicts her to be Charumita in Dharma’s avatar. Bindu questions Dharma. You knew everything and kept quiet? He is a traitor. Charumita says I got blinded by my love for him. I had no idea his expectations will drive him till this extent. He has lost his way. We can bring him to the right path. Bindu cannot feel that it is actually Dharma. You only told me that we shouldn’t support wrong. Why are you asking me to show mercy on him? She requests him to be good with their son. Bindu stops Dharma. Don’t come to me ever again for seeking forgiveness for Ashoka. If he is a criminal then he will have to bear the punishment. There is only one punishment for a traitor – death! Dharma looks at him stunned. Charumita smirks.

Precap: Ahankara requests Bindu to leave Ashoka. Bindu points out that she is saving her would be husband. Ahankara says Ashoka is getting punished for what he didnt even do. Sushim is getting punished for his crimes only. Rani Noor explains the layout of their palace to Daastan. He agrees to do anything for her.

Episode 205 - 11th November 2015        

Rajmata Helena gets Noor’s message. She is glad to realise that Daastan is under Noor’s spell now. She will come soon. She looks at Justin’s bloodied cloth. It is time for revenge. Sushim wont survive. Ashoka will die. Both the obstacles will be out of our way at once. On the other hand, Noor and Daastan will end the Maurya lineage. No one can stop Siamak from sitting on the throne. She keeps the cloth back in her trunk. She happily plays a musical instrument. She laughs through her tears.

Acharya tells Ashoka that this is politics. You wont be able to understand things properly. There will be so many people in the court tomorrow who would want you to die, and never sit on the throne. Ashoka says that was never my intention. I always wanted to help citizens get justice. Acharya points out that there is no way to prove his intentions. I know you didnt attack Sushim. One has to live to help motherland. Your death will only help your enemies. How will I help you if you don’t tell me the truth? Ashoka insists that he did attack his brother. Acharya has seen Ahankara’s hesitance and fear when Bindu was talking to her. Why do you want to save her? It is very selfish of you. You are risking other people’s lives and dreams to save just one person! You will be given death penalty for being a traitor. Afterwards, if Sushim is still alive, he will take over the throne. Tomorrow, in the courtroom, will be your last chance to tell the truth. Think through. Do you want to give a new hope to Magadh or want to darken its future for forever?

Rani Noor explains the layout of their palace and nearby areas to Daastan. Chankya’s spies are everywhere. Nothing can be hidden from him. It is almost impossible to cross this area without getting in his notice. Daastan agrees to do anything for her. The best way to get inside any house is through inside. Get ready to bid adieu to your pains and Bindu. She wants Chankya to die first of all. Death cannot reach Patliputra till he is alive!

Vaid ji leaves everything on God. I did everything that I could. It will be good if Sushim wakes up by the same time tomorrow. Charumita is in tears. Bindu too looks sadly at Sushim. Dharma comes there but Charumita stops her. Dharma wants to help Sushim. Charumita refuses to let her or her son come near Sushim. Have you come to make sure if my son is alive or not? He is my son. He will live. Dharma calls Sushim her son too. Charumita warns her not to say it again. She pushes Dharma out. Dharma is hurt by her words. She sadly leaves.

Charumita wants Bindu to do justice for her son. He points out that Sushim is his son too. I became father for the first time when he was born. He caresses Sushim’s head before leaving. Charumita holds Sushim’s hand. I promise you, I will get your biggest enemy out of our way till the time you gain conscious.

Ahankara comes to talk to Bindu. Sushim hates me. He has troubled me and my brother always. He snatched away my brother from me to torture me. I asked Agradoot to help me. I had no idea back then that Ashoka is Agradoot. He got me my brother back. He saw Sushim torturing me and rescued me. I have attacked Sushim. I got scared. I don’t know if you will believe me but this is the truth. I cannot see that person getting punishment, who has always bore pain for others. Bindu asks her if she has faith in God. You say my son Sushim hated you. He has tortured you. Swear to God and tell me, have you ever tried to tell Sushim this fact? Have you never thought of getting married to Ashoka instead of Sushim? Didnt you try to tell him that you both are just friends. He walks out of the way angrily. Ahankara mentally apologizes to Ashoka. I couldn’t do anything for you.

Rani Noor is by a riverside. She gets a message from a pigeon. She reads Rajmata Helena’s message. Ashoka and Sushim are having a fight. Rajmata wants me to stop Daastan from attacking Bindu. I have to find out first who dies in this fight. How will I stop Daastan now? He has made all the preps for tomorrow. Daastan comes there. She hides the message, and pretends to have stomach ache. He says I ready. He caresses her face. He leans in for a kiss but she pretends to be shy. He notices the tears on her face. Are you feeling sympathetic for Bindu? She replies that they are the tears of happiness. You will free me from all my problems and I will become yours for forever. He hugs her. She makes angry faces. He tells her not to turn her face away from him ever. You will come along with me and my troops tomorrow.

In the call, Ashoka thinks of all the times spent with his brother. He prays for Sushim’s well being. Nothing should happen to him. A soldier opens the gates. Ashoka is surprised to see his father. He asks about Sushim. Bindu says the wound is given by his own brother. He is not going to recover soon, or ever. You could have spoken to me if you had a problem with your brother. Why to kill him? He reasons that he was only saving Ahankara. Bindu gets curious about his relation with Ahankara. You attacked your own brother for her? What relation do you both share? Epi ends on Ashoka’s shocked face.

Precap: Bindu announces Ashoka guilty. He should be given death penalty. Dharma looks at him shocked.

Episode 206 - 12th November 2015        

Ashoka reasons that he was only saving Ahankara. Bindu gets curious about his relation with Ahankara. You attacked your own brother for her? What relation do you both share that is deeper than the relation brothers share? Ashoka replies that she is only his Bhabhi. Bindu still asks him who gave him the right to interfere in their relation. What prompted you to kill your own brother? Say truth tomorrow. It will be Magadh’s Samrat before you, and not your father. I wont be able to save you if you accept your crime tomorrow as well! He leaves from there.

Next morning, everyone is gathered in the courtroom. Bindu walks in. Helena was expecting Chanakya’s return. Acharya too hopes that Acharya Chanakya reaches on time. The soldiers bring in Ashoka. He is all chained and there is a big piece of wood around his neck. Dharma and Ahankara are pained to see him thus. Mahamadhya starts the meeting. Today is the worst day in the fate of Magadh. The citizens of Magadh loved him but he instead tried to kill his own elder brother. Sushim is still fighting for his life. He was only taking a stand against what is wrong. Is it a crime? Magadh is the land of truth and justice. Mauarya Vansh came together to end injustice and all the other evil attributes of the world. Ashoka not just went against the law of our palace, he became Agradoot. He revolted against us. He created problems for his own brother. He created fear in Patliputra. This is the saddest day of Magadh’s history as Ashoka not just attacked his brother Sushim. He also attacked Samrat when he reached there! I request Samrat today to do justice. Bindu asks Ashoka if he wants to say something. Another courtier asks Ashoka why he did this. Charumita reprimands him for trying to kill her son. I took care of your mother. Ahankara and Acharya request him to speak up. Dharma too says the same thing. I wont be able to live without you. Bindu promises to set everything right. Speak truth once. Ashoka gets thinking. I didnt attack Sushim. Everyone is happy except Charumita. Bindu walks up to his son. I knew you would never do this. He asks his soldiers to free Ashoka. Ashoka smiles at his father’s loving touch. Ashoka realises he was dreaming. I had no other option. I informed Sushim when I got to know about the injustice happening with the refugees. He didnt take it seriously. Mahamadhya says there was no proof against all the so called culprits. They had all the evidences to prove that there was no injustice with anyone. All those, whom you were supporting, were liars! Ashoka wanted Sushim to investigate. He didnt listen to me. I thought it to be my dharma to help them. This is why I had to become Agradoot!

Mahamadhya continues to talk against Ashoka by giving other instances when Ashoka/Agradoot tried to stop Sushim. You dint even let him meet the refugees. What was your motive behind it? Didnt you trust him enough? Or your personal selfishness stopped you from the people finding out about your brother’s good side? Ashoka denies. Mahamadhya insists that Ashoka is jealous of his brother. He lies that he is not interested in sitting on the throne. He planted a seed of rebellion in the people. He attacked his own brother to hide his truth!

Daastan looks at his army. Rani Noor is also ready to leave with them. She looks tensed though. She has to force a smile when Daastan looks in her direction. She ties a black thread around his hand. Daastan orders his men to get ready to leave. Rani Noor gets an idea. She intentionally falls down while mounting her horse. She gets hurt by a stone. Daastan immediately rushes to her side.

Ashoka says I am not greedy of throne. Bindu reminds him of the main point. Did you attack your brother or not? Ashoka still admits it. Mahamadhya highlights it all the more. I would request Samrat not to delay anymore in giving his statement. Ahankara says this isn’t true. Charumita scolds him for supporting someone who tried to kill her would be husband. Dharma talks in her son’s favour. He can never kill anyone. Rajmata Helena adds that the one who can attack his own father can do anything. Everyone knows about Sushim and Ashoka’s enmity. He is so young yet he has so much anger inside him already. I don’t want him to meet Justin’s fate. This hatred and jealousy will become a problem in future for Magadh. Punish Ashoka for his crime. Dharma denies. He didnt intend to hurt his brother. Charumita counters her. If he didnt intend it then he wouldn’t have hurt Sushim. Sushim has lost so much blood. He is lying almost dead. It is clear. Ashoka’s motive was to kill his brother only! Bindu seconds Charumita.

Precap: Bindu announces Ashoka guilty. He should be given death penalty. Dharma looks at him shocked.

Episode 207 - 13th November 2015        

Epi begins with Charumita saying it is clear. Ashoka’s motive was to kill his brother only! Bindu seconds Charumita. He tells Dharma that she came in his room. You only told me you are well aware of the enmity between Suhsim and Ashoka. You only told me about Ashoka and Ahankara’s relation. Dharma is shocked. When did I say so? Bindu tells her to stop lying. You only came to my room to beg for Ashoka’s life. You told me everything yourself. She says you are mistaken. This angers him. You are calling me a liar? She denies. We dint have any such convo. I will never support something that is wrong, even if he is my son. He tells her to stop. I dint know you will play such a big game with me. You showed me your real face today! You are a cheater and selfish person. I am so pained today. I regret calling a woman like you Dharma. Ashoka looks angry. Bindu regrets finding out the real face of a person before trusting her so much. How could I make such a big mistake? You have turned the tables of lies around so easily. It all seems like a big bad dream. I cannot believe any of it. I made a mistake so many years ago. I want to rectify it today. From today onwards, you will be called by your original name – Shubhadrangi, and not Dharma. Ashoka says you are right Samrat. You have made such a big mistake in recognizing someone for the first time. Dharma tells him to stop. Ashoka tells him to give him any punishment. I request you not to blame my mother for what she hasn’t done. Bindu announces Ashoka guilty. He should be given death penalty. Dharma looks at him shocked. Everyone present in the court is stunned too.

Dharma pleads Bindu not to do it. She faints. Ashoka screams Ma. The soldiers stop him. The Daasis’ help Dharma. They take her inside. Ashoka struggles to break free. I want to go to my mom. Acharya Chanakya enters just then. The soldiers move away from Ashoka on his signal. Everyone greets him. Acharya Chanakya asks Bindu if this decision was necessary. Mahamadhya says you didnt have to ask this question if you had reached here a while ago. You don’t know what Ashoka has done. Acharya Chanakya knows it already. This is why I am here. Rajmata Helena asks him why he is supporting Ashoka then. a traitor should be killed. My son Justin was also given death penalty. I had killed him with my own hands. Why not Ashoka then? Just because he is your disciple? Acharya Chanakya says your son’s intentions were also made clear along with his crime. He had given the reason behind wanting to kill Samrat and his family. A culprit’s punishment should be decided only after finding all the reasons behind it. I am sure Ashoka didnt intend to kill Sushim. Mahamadhya insists that was so. Acharya Chanakya talks about a last instance where truth was made lie. I was also a part of that lie. The people present there had understood it that day that both truth and lies and spoken at times. Samrat was under pressure to lie. Maybe Ashoka is under some pressure. Maybe he is hiding the truth. He requests Bindu to give some time to prove the truth. A soldier comes to update Bindu on Sushim’s condition. His condition is very critical. If he lives by tonight then he will be fine. Charumita rushes off to see her son.

Charumita comes to see Sushim. Vaid ji shares that the situation has gone out of hand. I don’t know if he will be alive tomorrow or not. Charumita holds him by his neck. Nothing should happen to my son. Raj Vaid’s disciples request her to pardon Raj Vaid. Charumita cries seeing Sushim.

Bindu sticks to his decision. Ashoka will be hanged tomorrow morning itself. The soldiers take away Ashoka. Acharya Chanakya notices Ahankara crying badly.

Bindu thinks of pleading to Bindu. Daasi stops her. Dharma insists to talk to Bindu. I will take him away from here. I can live without Samrat but not my son. The Daasi says a traitor cannot get out of here alive. She tells Dharma everything that happened in the court.

Raj Vaid gives up on Sushim. Everyone is shocked. Rajmata Helena acts. I cannot see my grandson dying before my eyes. You have to save him. I am not that strong. Siamak talks to Sushim. You never give up. I challenge you to fight with me. Are you scared of losing? You are a coward! Get up. His little brother asks his mother if he will really lose both his brothers tomorrow morning? Bindu walks out of there. Chanakya refuses to let this injustice happen. I have tonight to do something.

Precap: Acharya Chanakya requests Bindu for some time to find out Ashoka’s truth. Bindu is not interested to give Ashoka a chance. Acharya Chanakya thinks about this difficult situation. It is almost impossible to help Ashoka now.

Episode 208 - 16th November 2015        

Bindu is vry disturbed. Acharya Chanakya comes there. Bindu feels helpless. The life of both my sons are on the brink. What did I miss? Acharya Chanakya talks in Ashoka’s favour. Hope you don’t regret your decision later. Ashoka should be punished if he is indeed guilty. But what if he is proved innocent afterwards? I want some time to prove if he is really a culprit or not. Bindu too wants to think that his son Ashoka is innocent. But the dagger in his hand said otherwise. Plus he was there as Agradoot. He accepted his crime. He even tried to hurt me. I am more shocked by the changes in Shubhadrangi (Dharma). She told me she knew everything from the start. She even asked me to make Ashoka my successor. She wants a separate palace for herself and her son. She was well aware of the fact that Ashoka was Agradoot; and also of Ahankara and Ashoka. She has shocked me like anything. Even Acharya Chanakya cannot believe it that Dharma could say so. Bindu regrets trusting Ashoka and Dharma. You were capable to identify my father’s true face but not of Ashoka. He walks away.

Acharya Chanakya comes to meet Ashoka in the cell. Ashoka tells Acharya Chanakya that he came a little too late. I need you most but now its too late. Acharya Chanakya says there is still time left. Ashoka says I made a mistake. Acharya Chanakya agrees. You have indeed made a mistake. Guru cannot be with his disciple always. His given knowledge always stays though. I had warned you not to take any decision using your heart. You have made this mistake only. You interfered in Magadh’s justice system by becoming Agradoot. It is your responsibility to do so but you have actually insulted it. Ashoka rues not having any other option. Acharya reasons that everyone has an option. Ever person looks for a way out which suits their purpose. Ashoka says neither you nor father was here. I had to take it in my hands. Acharya Chanakya says you should have kept patience. You see what you have fallen into now. I want to hear the truth. He gives a letter to Ashoka. After seeing you, I felt the same way I felt seeing your grandfather Chandragupta Maurya! The hopes were same. I have full faith that my vision of seeing you as the saviour of entire India was right. Your father today told me I made a mistake in understanding you. Ashoka apologizes to him. I disappointed you and father. I deserve to die. Acharya asks him to read the letter. If you find anything out of place then I will accept it that it is the Guru who has actually failed. Ashoka reads the letter. Sushim attacked Ahankara. Ashoka intervened. Ahankara hurt Sushim to save herself. Ashoka took the blame on himself to save Ahankara. Ashoka touches Acharya’s feet. They share a hug. Now a Guru will help his disciple, even if I have to sacrifice my life for it. Ashoka takes a promise from him for not telling this truth to anyone. Everything will be finished otherwise. Acharya promises him. You hid the truth to save two people. Justice cannot happen this ways. The ulterior motive for me is to protect Magadh’s future. I have to help you for the very same reason.

Acharya Chanakya looks out of the window. His disciple asks him what he has thought of. Acharya says an emotional father took the decision to punish his son. I know Agradoot is just an illusion. Dharma can never support wrong people. She can never be selfish. These people have pictured something else before Samrat. Sushim is on deathbed. It is almost impossible to help Ashoka now. The sunrise tomorrow will bring his death punishment. I don’t have enough time to gather proofs. His disciple reasons that they could have helped Ashoka if Sushim was not in this condition. No treatment is working. This is what is bothering Samrat. Would he have taken such a decision if Sushim was fine? Only a miracle can save Ashoka now. Acharya says the same thing. I know who can do this miracle.

An emotional Dharma looks at Ashoka’s stuff. I don’t have much time. She asks her Daasi to help her. He will leave me tomorrow morning. I have to give it all to him before that. Acharya walks in saying nothing will happen to Ashoka. I wont let him die. Dharma gets hopeful. Acharya agrees to help Ashoka but through her support. Magadh’s justice system says if anyone kills a member of the royal family then he should be killed. But if the family member doesn’t die then the culprit should only be punished for the crime. Save Sushim till tomorrow morning while I will take care of Ashoka. I will get time to help him after that only. There is only one solution to save Ashoka – don’t let Sushim die! I know only you are capable to do so!

Charumita cries as she sits beside Sushim. Dharma comes there. Charumita gets angry upon seeing her. I told you to stay away from my son. She pushes Dharma. Acharya Chanakya says maybe this is the only solution to save Sushim. Charu asks him to leave her and her son alone. I know you have no sympathy for my son. I wont let you kill my son by falling in your trap. Acharya reasons that Dharma has saved Samrat a lot many times. Not just me but you too have witnessed such miracles. Give Dharma a chance. Charu gets angry. Should I let her complete her son’s incomplete work? Dharma understands her discomfort. I cannot do anything to save my son from dying. I can help Sushim. It wont help me in any way but if he gets well then I will be out of this guilt that Sushim is in this condition because of my son. we can lose both our sons tomorrow or save one. The decision is yours! Charu gives in.

Precap: Ashoka gets ready to be hanged.

Episode 209 - 17th November 2015        

Dharma tends to Sushim’s wounds.

Ahankara asks Ashoka what he is made of. I tried to speak the truth but my truth failed before your lie. Samrat did not believe me. He tells her to forget it. I am doing it so free can be the pain of your past. Ahankara says how to live the dermas after they are snatched away. They both apologize to one another. He has one dream. Will you help me? He takes her brother in his arms. Raise him with love and faith. Don’t tell him about that Maurya who hurt you when you tell him about Maurya background. Tell him about the one who helped you. Hatred causes hatred only. Forgive Sushim. She asks him to bless her brother. Ashoka kisses him on the forehead and hugs him. She is all teary eyed as she takes her brother back from him. She hurts himself on her hear when he reaches out to her. He is taken aback.

Charu thinks of the past moments spent with her son as Dharma continues to treat Sushim. Bindu has organized a yagya for his son’s well being. He thinks of Ashoka while doing puja. Siamak cries thinking about Ashoka too. Helena comes there. He says both my brothers didnt behave well with me, but I cannot see them dying. I cannot believe it that Ashoka killed Sushim. I have seen them both fighting a lot many times. He could have killed Sushim back then too. Why now? Helena says every incident teaches us something about ourselves and others. This incident teaches you not to trust anyone here, not even your brothers. She comforts him. She thinks that all the darkness will go out of his way tomorrow. No one will object as you will be the deserving candidate for the throne. My promise to Justin will come true.

Ashoka takes a bath. He gets ready for his punishment.

Dharma continues looking after Sushim.

Someone reads him some lines from some scriptures for Ashoka. Ashoka leaves with the soldiers. Everyone has gathered outside to witness this incident. Ashoka is all chained when he is brought outside for his execution. Bindu looks on sadly. Ashoka looks at his father. Bindu thinks of how he left the responsibility on Ashoka to help his brother in his absence. Do you have any last wish? Ashoka wants the chains to be removed for a while. Mahamadhya gets scared but Bindu fulfils Ashoka’s wish. Ashoka walks up to his father. They both think of their past happy moments. Ashoka asks him to bless him. Bindu caresses his face for a second eventually.

The sun rises. Ashoka takes his position. The soldier ties his hands and covers his face with a black cloth. On the other hand, Sushim opens his eyes. Bindu signals the executioner. The executioner pulls the lever. Acharya Chanakya asks Samrat to stop.

Precap: Acharya asks Sushim why he didnt try to save himself when Ashoka attacked him. Sushim gives a roundabout answer. Ahankara walks in.

Episode 210 - 18th November 2015        

Bindu signals the executioner. The executioner almost pulls the lever. Acharya Chanakya asks Samrat to stop. Sushim is alright. Bindu wastes no time. He throws his dagger and cuts the rope around Ashoka’s neck. He immediately rushes to his son’s side and removes the black cloth from around his face. Ashoka coughs. Bindu hugs his son. Dharma folds her hands thankfully as she witnesses this scene.

Mahamadhya asks Acharya why he did this. We cannot forget Ashoka’s crimes even if Sushim is alive. We cannot forgive him. Acharya says the basis of justice is that the punishment should be as per the crime only. It isn’t justice if the punishment is less than the crime. It is injustice if the punishment is bigger than the crime. As per Magadh’s rules, there is no such rule for a culprit to be given death punishment while attacking a member of the royal family other than Samrat. I should tell you that Devi Dharma only treated Sushim. She only got him all hale and hearty. He confirms it to Samrat again. Sushim and Charu look at one another.

In the courtroom, Acharya announces Bindu’s new decision. Ashoka should not be given death penalty. We should now investigate the matter from the beginning. He gives Sushim a chance to relate all the incidents of that day one by one. Mahamadhya reasons that Ashoka accepted his crime. Devi Dharma also said to Samrat that Ashoka is jealous of Sushim. What truth you want to know now? Bindu allows Acharya to do what he has in mind.

Acharya turns to Sushim. Why did Ashoka used a dagger that night? Sushim too wants to know the same. Acharya says you can atleast tell how you were attacked. Mahamadhya counters him. What is important is that Ashoka attacked his brother. Acharya agrees. Why didnt Sushim try to save himself when Ashoka attacked him. Sushim shares that Ashoka made his weapon fall already. Acharya points out that this means Sushim already had a weapon. You both were already engaged in a fight. What was it? Sushim says it was a sword. Acharya signals someone. Two guys come inside. One is dressed as Sushim and another is wearing Agradoot’s attire. They relive the entire incident. Acharya stops them. This all shows that if Sushim had a sword then Ashoka too should be holding a sword only. Sushim said that Ashoka used a knife. I want to ask Sushim if Ashoka’s sword turned into a dagger by some miracle. This clearly proves that Sushim isn’t telling us the entire truth. I want to present a witness before everyone. Ahankara walks in. Sushim looks at her in shock. Acharya signals her to speak. Ahankara says Sushim spoke truth. Agradoot overpowered Sushim. He made Sushim’s weapon fall. He didnt hurt Sushim though. I recall that Sushim was lying on the floor as he was defeated. You all started knocking the door just then. I got scared. I wanted to run away. I had told the same to Agradoot but he didnt want to run away. He wanted to tell you Sushim’s truth. Sushim got up just then. Ahankara shares the truth before everyone finally. Before Sushim could attack Agradoot I attacked him instead. This is the truth! I wanted to save Agradoot and not hurt Sushim. Agradoot saved my brother from this barbarous man (Sushim). Sushim claps for her. You are lying to save Ashoka’s life.

Bindu asks Ashoka to tell the truth. Acharya too prods him for the same. if you don’t tell truth then someone will be met with injustice. It is like a sin for any Samrat if he cannot do justice. It is a sin for the state too. Ashoka thinks of Acharya’s words last night. You should have actually supported Ahankara in speaking truth. You should have helped her in getting least justice. You chose the simplest way. Dharma gives her swear to Ashoka. Don’t lie today! Ashoka accepts that he lied that day. It pains me to speak the truth. My brother is no less than an animal. He behaved so rudely with his would be wife. How can any lady stay quiet after bearing so much torture! She still bore all that but she could not take it when her brother’s life got in trouble. She took Agradoot’s help then. Mahamadhya asks him why he didnt say this truth earlier. Why did you accept this crime in the first place? Ashoka asks him if he still does not understand he was saving Ahankara and her brother. Sushim calls Ashoka great. He is saying the truth! People don’t know if this is your complete truth or not. I will tell them. You and Ahankara wanted me to be out of your way. You tried as well. Ahankara is a liar! She cheated me. I accepted her even though she is the daughter of traitors. She cheated me! She is characterless. Ashoka reminds him of limits. Sushim says you both have already crossed the limits. Ashoka raises his hand on him but Sushim holds his hand. Dharma is shocked. Bindu tells them both to calm down. He dismisses the meeting. I want to speak to Acharya personally. Everyone leaves from there following his orders.

Bindu is pained to see two of his sons fighting like enemies before everyone. Is this the future of Maurya lineage? How will that family, which is breaking from inside, will keep India united? Acharya shares a solution – send one of your sons outside Patliputra! This is the only solution to this problem.

Precap: Someone attacked Takshshila. Acharya suggests sending Sushim for this task. Mahamadhya counters his decision but Acharya reasons that Sushim can go to Takshshila. He was acting Samrat for a while. Mahamadhya talks about Ashoka. He too is capable enough!

Episode 211 - 19th November 2015        

Scene 1

Chanakya says to Bindu that he cant kill innocents, I feel someone else was faking to be Agradoot and killed innocents and as much as I know Ashok doesnt have greed for wealth, Bindu says subhadrangi told me that Ashok want power and he is insecure of sushim, she asked me to make Ashok my heir and next Samrat, I cant believe all this is happening, you told me to keep Sushim and Ashok away but what will happen with that? Chanakya says I feel Ashok should be close to you so that he gets to know about his responsibilities and also learn things from you otherside Sushim should be given responsibilities so that he can learn his duties and fulfill them, Bindu says I am not able to understand anything, Chanakya says just be calm, everything will be solved but we have to give Ashok justice, Ashok didnt attack Sushim thats for sure, Bindu says Ashok will be freed soon and Ahenkara attacked Sushim as he didnt leave any option for her, I will forgive her too, he leaves, Chanakya says I have to get to know what happened to Dharma, before bindu’s relation with Dharma and Ashok get strangled, I have to know the reason behind changes in Dharma’s attitude.

Dastan gets letter, Noor is thinking that Helena havent sent any letter, dont know what is happening in palace, Dastan brings letter to Noor, she reads it that we have to kill our enemies, she thinks this means Sushim and Ashok got saved and we have to attack now, Dastan ask why Helena sent letter to you? Noor says Helena is with us, Dastan says greek people cant be with us, greek killed my brother Harsh, I cant trust them, Noor says trust me Helena will not ditch us, Dastan ask why you trust her so much? Noor recalls how Helena shook hands with Noor because of Siamak, Noor says you will get to know everything after bindu’s death, Dastan says I wont attack Magadh, Noor says you cant ditch me like this, Dastan says I never take back my words, I will Bindu for sure but in my way, get ready.

Scene 2

Bindu says to Ahenkara that I promised your father to protect you, I am sorry that I couldnt fulfill my promise, no women should be disrespected, no injustice should happen to them, if a son cant respect women then he is shame for his parents, the society which doesnt respect women cant be successful, he says to Ahenkara that you are free, I take back my decision of marrying you will Sushim, your marriage with him is called off, we will build small palace for you in Patliputra where you can peacefully live with your brother, we cant heal your wounds but I am sorry on behalf of my whole family, he says to Sushim that I know still you are not guilty for your deed but as damage control, apologize to Ahenkara infront of whole court, Sushim comes to Ahenkara, folds his hands and says forgive me, Ahenkara looks at Bindu and nods, Bindu leaves court, Sushim stares Ahenkara and leaves too, all leave, Ahenkara comes to Ashok, Ashok says forget everything and give new direction to your life, Ahenkara says I can forget everything but not you, I will keep looking for you everywhere in my life and you cant stop me from doing this, Sushim listens this from far and fumes in anger, Ahenkara leaves, Charu comes to Sushim and says these are small things, dont waste time on that, important is how to give makeover to your image infront of Bindu.

Ashok comes to Chanakya, Chanakya says you got freed today so have sweets, Ashok eats it, Chanakya says honey bees are great animal, we eat their food, you know there are many beed in honeycomb but only one queen rule them, she shows them way too, but it is sometimes dangerous too, this queen make sure that honey is produced, I am saying all this that to keep everyone united, leader is needed, the one who has leadership skills, who can keep people united for nation, I am happy that you did all this, person like you should sit on throne, Ashok says thanks for being kind but whatever I did was not to sit on throne, my aim is not to sit on throne and I havent forgot my promise to Siamak, Chanakya says but Bindu said that Dharma asked him to make you heir.

PRECAP- Soldier tells Bindu that enemies attacked a city, Chanakya suggests that we should army under Sushim’s leadership, Khalatak says I dont agree with this, this is not the time to make Sushim learn something, also Sushim doesnt have much experience in all this, Chanakya says if Sushim can become temporary Samrat then why cane he lead his army in war? Khalatak says this way we can send Ashok too as he wanted to become temporary Samrat too.

Episode 212 - 20th November 2015        

Scene 1

All are present in court, a king’s head is shown, Chanakya says he was head on one state Dakshsheela, soldier says this king did what others didnt dare to do it, soldier says our city is being attacked by some foreigners and its very difficult to face them as they are cruel and violent, they have no rules and are not afraid of death, Chanakya says I got to know about it and I told this to Khalatak too but dont think he took any action, Khalatak says I sent letter there but didnt get any reply, Bindu says I will go to that city, Helena says I can ask help from my father as his state is near Dakshsheela, Bindu says no as people will think that Magadh’s army is weak that need someone else’s assistance, I will go there, Chanakya says you have returned to Magadh after much time, you are needed here, Bindu ask then who will go there? Chanakya says your elder son Sushim, this way Sushim will learn something and will also get tested, its better to send him, Khalatak says I dont agree with him, this is not time to make him learn something or test him, Sushim is very young and he has know experience, and Sushim have got one chance so we should give chance to Ashok now as this way both brothers will respect each other too, Chanakya says whatever happened till now it proves that Ashok took decisions with heart, he is emotional, he had put his life in danger to save girl’s life, the one who is so emotional, cannot handle war, he has to work on his leadership skill, Khalatak says but we all know Ashok’s fighting skills, he has protected royal family, he has leadership skills thats why he made Niharika to have peace talk, Chanakya says I am not saying Ashok isnt capable but I feel its better to send Sushim, Bindua says my both sons are capable, whatever happened till now, I have to test both of them then I will announce who is more capable to go to Dakshsheela, he leaves, Helena thinks that they dont know what is going to happen in palace.

Radha ask Chanakya why he didnt allow Ashok to go to Dakshsheela? Sushim wont be able to do anything there, Chanakya says I want AShok to spend time with Bindu, we can handle Dakshsheela but if Sushim becomes king then whole india will be divided, thats why I want him to go there and show his skills to everyone, Ashok can give his life to protect his land but cant kill anyone, but Sushim can kill anyone to protect himself, Ashok need his father’s support, its very important to remove space between Bindu and Ashok, Ashok have to learn that we cant take decisions by getting emotional, Ashok’s learning will start now, time coming is very crucial.

Scene 2

Sushim comes to Bindu and says I know what I did with Ahenkara, you are sad with that, but whenever I used to see her, her father’s betrayal used to come in my mind but I cant forget that her parents tried to kill my parents, how can I trust her when she is betrayer’s daughter, Bindu says if you didnt want to marry her then you could have talked to me but you shouldnt have been violent to her, Sushim says I wanted to talk to you but you had no time for me, I thought you had time for Ashok only, Bindu says I am always available to listen your problems. Sushim ask him to give one chance to him to become good son, Bindu says I will give you one chance, some enemies have attacked our city, we have to stop them, my wish that you go there and stop those enemies, Sushim says me? I can believe you have chosen me for such big work, I will definitely go there, he touches Bindu’s feet and I will fulfill your hopes from me, Bindu blesses him, Sushim leaves.

Khalatak says to Sushim that you have done mistake, Charu says its good that Sushim got this opportunity not Ashok, this way he can prove his skills, Khalatak says I gave Ashok’s name for this fight as going to Dakshsheela(where fight is going on is like getting into mess, there is so much chaos there, so much violence is going on there and only one person is behind all this, that is their new king who is very cruel, Charu says then how can we stop Sushim going there? Khalatak says its impossible to change Bindu’s decision now as Chanakya gave Sushim’s name too, Sushim says I will change his decision.

Helena raises lighter from palace, Noor and Dastan sees this from far, Noor says she is giving us hint, see I told you she is with us, Dastan says you are coming with me and if you try to fool me then I will kill you infront of your son, Noor says we have to pass checkpost and have to kill all soldiers there else Aakramak will get to know about our attack, Dastan says I will kill everyone. Helena says to herself that when Magadh will be sleeping peacefully, my son’s dream will get fulfilled and Chanakya wont be able to do anything.

PRECAP- Ashok will have a fight with Dastan and will win it but he has to pay price for this by losing someone his own that is Dharma.

Episode 214 - 23th November 2015        

Noor asks Dharma to call out Ashoka. Dharma calls out for Ashoka. Ashoka gets out of water.

The soldiers take Acharya Chanakya with them. Ashoka attacks them. He kills them all one by one using chains. Ashoka touches Acharya’s feet. He thinks of how that piece of wood, that Acharya had pushed in water, helped him in freeing himself. He thinks of his vow. I wont sit quietly till I help those people gain freedom. Till I succeed, I wont even touch Chandragupta Maurya’s sword. He picks up the sword. This is the only way to reach the palace now. He runs towards the palace. He gets inside the secret tunnel which Daastan had used. Flashback ends. Ashoka shares that Mata Noor is behind it. Acharya had already understood it. I saw the Khurasani soliders. They hear Dharma calling out for Ashoka. Acharya tells Ashoka to save his mother. Ashoka takes his blessings and runs towards the courtroom.

Noor mocks Dharma. What happened to your son? He is still not here. Call him. He might come if you scream a little more in pain. Dharma gets hurt. Bindu steps forward to help her but Noor slashes at his hand. Daastan and Noor point their swords and him. Dharma gets up and goes to Bindu. Dharma says the truth is not that Samrat never loved you. The truth is your love towards Samrat wasn’t true. It would have reached him otherwise. Noor calls her the biggest obstacle in her way. I have seen my love dying every second. Bindu will go through the same today. Rajmata Helena stops Siamak. He wants to save his family. She tries to stop him saying he is young. He says I am not so young not to do my duties.

Noor picks up a sword to attack Dharma when Ashoka shoots something at her hand. She drops the sword in pain. She is shocked to see Ashoka. Everyone else is happy and relieved to see him alive. Dharma tries to go to him but Noor pushes her on floor. Ashoka kills a soldier that comes in his way. Ashoka throws a dagger at Daastan. He ducks so as to save himself. Bindu overpowers him. He points his sword at Daastan. Noor picks up a dagger. She runs to hurt Dharma but Ashoka steps in. In an attempt to save his mother, he stabs her. Everyone is shocked to witness it. Noor falls on the floor. Siamak screams Ma. He rushes to his mother’s side. He calls Ashoka a murderer. Noor breathes her last in her son’s lap. Siamak shouts Ma. He cries. The soldiers surround Daastan. Acharya Chanakya steps inside. Ashoka leaves from there followed by Dharma. Sushim smirks.

Daastan is chained and taken to the prison. Rajmata Helena sees him thus. She is shocked. Daastan angrily walks past her. Rajmata Helena goes inside the courtroom.

Bindu explains to Siamak that Ashoka did it to save his mother. We would all have died otherwise. It is true that your mother was behind this attack. She wanted to kill us all and make you sit on the throne. Siamak refuses to believe it. She cannot do it. Rajmata Helena stops in shock to see Noor lying dead on the floor. Siamak hugs her. You are my grandson. I am with you always. Bindu asks Mahamadhya to make preps for the last rites of all the soldiers who died bravely to save us. We should do it with due respect. Rani Noor was a traitor but she was also the mother of my son. It is important that he should do her last rites. Make preps for it as well. Mahamadhya nods. Everyone leaves one by one.

Dharma cleans Ashoka’s hands. What did you do? You killed a mother. It was a sin. You killed someone. You can never return it. My son became a murderer! His hands are drenched with someone’s blood. Acharya Chanakya says she can clean the blood from his hands but cannot change his destiny. It was bound to happen one day. There cannot be one path for justice. Attacking someone to save yourself or someone else cannot be a killing. It is the duty of a kid to save his parents. It is no sin. Ashoka asks him why him. I hurt my own people. Dharma cries thinking of the pain Ashoka gave to Siamak. Dharma screams in pain as her head hurts. Ashoka arranges for water. Acharya Chankya cuts her finger. Black blood comes out. all three of them are shocked. He says someone has done black magic on you. It is the proof. This indicates the reasons behind all the changes in your behaviour in the past days. It was all related to this. She faints.

Bindu regrets trusting Noor. She was Khurasan’s daughter yet I never doubted her. She proved me wrong. Acharya had warned me but I didnt pay heed. This taught me that we should never trust foreigners. They will rebel when they will know about Daastan being captured by us. This time I wont forgive them. They have attacked us for the second time. I will tell everyone the meaning of it now.

Acharya Chanakya says tomorrow, same time, we will find out behind it all. We found this problem on time. We will be able to find out the culprit then. Ashoka doubts on Noor but Acharya Chanakya denies. The culprit would have been near Devi Dharma. Noor could have used the same powers on the entire family. She wouldn’t have needed Daastan then. Ashoka is sad to think his mother has more enemies.

Rajmata Helena says Noor was behind it. She got punished for it. Bindu denies. She did attack us but the attack was pretty easy for her. There is someone amongst us without whose help Noor and Daastan couldn’t have come inside. I will have to find out who that person is! That traitor will get no punishment other than death!

Precap: Acharya Chanakya tells Ashoka to be alert to save your mother and motherland. Ashoka nods. I wont spare anyone who will think to hurt my mother and motherland!

Episode 215 - 24th November 2015        

Bindu says Noor did attack us but the attack was pretty easy for her. There is someone amongst us without whose help Noor and Daastan couldn’t have come inside. Helena raises doubt on Akramak but he counters her. Akramak died for us. Such people are to be valued. I will have to find out who that person is who helped Noor and Daastan! That traitor will get no punishment other than death! Helena agrees with him. We should question all the soldiers who were present here during the attack. Mahamadhya nods.

Acharya Chanakya tells that the biggest bitter truth of life is that your closest people backstab you. If you (Ashoka) have to face any problems in life then be prepared to fight with anyone. Ashoka nods. I wont spare anyone who will think to hurt my mother and motherland!

At night, Helena comes to meet Daastan. He knew she would come to meet him. You know why I am still alive? Bindu wants to know about that traitor inside the palace who helped me and Noor. I have the letters that who had written to Noor. Bindu will not be bereft of any doubt after reading them. He would understand that Unanis too are his enemies. She reasons that he wont get out alive from here even after taking her name. He says I will take you down with me! If you want to save yourself then you will have to save me.

Next morning, all the family members are gathered around Noor’s pyre. Bindu thinks of the past. I wish I could understand your anger, jealousy and insecurity that were bubbling inside you. It affected your own son. Siamak thinks of his last meeting with his mother as he tearfully holds the burning log of wood. He lights the pyre. He thinks of the past when Ashoka had spoken about not upsetting any of their mothers. He turns to go when Ashoka kneels down before him. Please forgive me. I have hurt you badly. I will accept any punishment that you will give me. Bindu asks Siamak to forgive Ashoka. He did that to save his mother. Siamak hugs Ashoka. I forgive you brother. He leaves from there. Everyone else follows except Acharya Chanakya and Helena. Acharya Chanakya talks to Helena. I can understand it when Siamak wasn’t held captive but I cannot understand why you weren’t held captive by the Khurasanis. Why did Khurasanis have such a special place for you (a Unani). She asks him what he wants to say. He replies I will prove everything soon. That time is not far.

Charumita looks at her black magic dolls. The stones turn white. This means someone is saving Dharma. She thinks of the words of that lady tantric. Someone has come to know that about black magic being done on Dharma. She thinks of Acharya Chanakya’s challenging words. If he is behind it then he will reach me for sure. The penalty for doing black magic in Magadh on someone is death. Chanakya will make sure I get my due punishment.

Chanakya’s disciple tells Acharya that he was right to doubt Purshottam. Purshottam often came to palace to meet Sushim and Mahamadhya. Chanakya says he hasn’t come here in a while. I am sure he is dead by now. Sushim and Mahamadhya are in this together. Now I feel there is something more to it. It is still hidden though. Sushim is a prince. Why would he take out money from the treasury in the name of help? Why would he need it? I will have to bring it out before everyone before something goes wrong. Magadh’s throne is to unite entire India. Whoever tries to plot anything against it has to get out. I vow to bring out the entire truth before Bindu by today evening. I will find out who that enemy is.

Ashoka and a guy come to the local market in disguise. Ashoka speaks about what his mother is going through recently. The other guy hints at black magic. Ashoka asks him for a solution. Or am I wasting these 100 gold coins? I will give it to whoever offers to cure my mother. People hear the amount. The other guy suggests Ashoka to look somewhere else. No one here can help you. Ashoka nods and leaves. A guy follows him.

Helena writes a letter in code words. She fears losing Siamak. She gives the letter to a servant. Make sure it reaches my father asap. Save it with your life. She pays him some money. Outside, Acharya Chanakya comes face to face with the solider. His disciple comes from the other side. Other soldiers catch hold of him. The soldier tries to swallow the message but Acharya’s disciple pulls out a piece from his mount. Acharya orders his soldier to bring out the rest of message from that guy even if it means killing him.

The guy offers to help Ashoka. I heard you. It all hints at black magic. I know how to do it. Ashoka gives him the bag of gold coins. Save my mother. But first tell me, have you ever treated anyone before? The guy nods. Ashoka asks him to come along. The guy says I can do it from here only. People come to me from far. Ashoka agrees. He gives the bag of money to the guy and removes his moustache. The guy gets scared. Ashoka catches hold of him. It is illegal to do black magic in Magadh. You used it on a royal family member. Now you will die. The guy accepts he knows nothing about black magic. I am only a thug. I wanted to loot your money. No one in this place does this magic. That woman never spares anyone. Ashoka threatens him to give him info. The guy tells Ashoka about the lady who lives in a cave. She is the strongest. I often help her by stealing unclaimed dead bodies. I am saying the truth. Ashoka asks about the cave.

Precap: Ashoka confronts the lady. Tell me the name of that woman who has made my mother a living dead by using black magic on her. Charu looks at them from outside.

Episode 216 - 25th November 2015        

Bindu asks Sushim to make preps to leave for Takshshila. There has been so much delay already. Mahamadhya tries to say something against it but Acharya Chanakya doesn’t let him. if the people in Takshshila will get to know about the recent attack here then it will be difficult to hold them back. Sushim suggests sending Ashoka. Acharya says this time is to show your love for your motherland and not for your brother. It is the time to take a right decision and live up to your responsibility towards your motherland. You have made many mistakes till date. You have learnt from them. you have gained experience from your father and school. You are the best person to go to Takshshila. Ashoka lacks that experience. I would have suggested his name only if he was so experienced. Bindu seconds him. Get ready to leave for Takshshila. Magadh needs you Sushim. Everyones leaves except Sushim and Mahamadhya. Sushim remarks that he should sit quietly. Acharya saved Ashoka before your eyes. You proved it that you are nothing before Chanakya. You stand quietly whenever he comes. I too will get insulted like you if I follow your footsteps. I might bow down before Ashoka one day like you do before Chanakya. It is the biggest mistake of my life to trust you. I very well know how to rectify it. if you fail to stop me from going to Takshshila then I will make sure you wont be fit enough to go anywhere.

A daasi brings something to Helena. It was found next to your messenger. He wasn’t there. Helena is sure Chanakya is behind it. if he finds out the message then! I will have to do something before he reaches me.

Chanakya waits for Mahamadhya in his room. Acharya says don’t think that I don’t respect you if I counter your opinions. I have always valued it that it is important for you to keep Magadh’s respect intact. But I have been proved wrong today. Mahamadhya asks him to speak clearly. Acharya takes Purshottam’s name. I have every piece of news about him. Mahamadhya looks shocked. The money is taken from treasury to help the refugees but it isn’t reaching them in reality. I am trying to find out the reason as to why Sushim has to arrange for money. What’s his plan? Why are you supporting him? I have ample proofs to prove it. Mahamadhya says I used to be jealous of you. I wanted the same respect like you. I wanted to as great as you. I got blinded by expectations. Only motive became important. I cheated to reach for it. Now that Sushim has insulted me, my eyes have opened up. I have understood my mistake. It was my biggest mstake to support a selfish person like Sushim. I have caused such a big threat to Magadh. I don’t know if I deserve forgiveness but I can do penitence. I will help bring out the truth of the wrong people and get them punished. Acharya repeats his question. Mahamadhya shares that Sushim did so just so he could create an army of his own. Siamak had support from Khurasanis while Ashoka had you. Sushim felt insecure. He could have rebelled to vouch for the throne by using that money. Acharya asks him if he will say the same thing before Samrat. Mahamadhya asks for some time. Acharya gives him time till sunrise or I will tell Samrat everything. Mahamadhya leaves. Acharya Chanakya hopes that Ashoka finds some clue against Charu. I will unveil all the criminals together before Samrat.

Ashoka comes to the cave. He requests the lady to help his mother. Someone has done black magic on her. only you can help me. She denies. it is impossible to use black magic here. How can I do? Ashoka replies that it is she only who did it on his mother. If you don’t help me then you will be punished. She refuses that she did anything. He pushes her back and holds a knife near her neck. Tell me the name of that person if it isn’t you. Who wants to harm my mother?

Mahamadhya comes to a room to get something. Sushim comes there. What are you doing here? Mahamadhya advises him to go to Takshshila. Sushim scolds him. Worry about yourself if not me. If I lose my calm then you know what can happen. Mahamadhya nods. Sushim tells him to think. Mahamadhya takes something with him.

Ashoka asks the lady to do something good before dying. Tell me the name of the person who is responsible for my mother’s condition. She sprinkles something in his eyes. Charumita throws a dagger at the lady. She dies before she could tell anything to Ashoka.

Acharya Chanakya looks at the piece of paper. This means Siamak is Justin’s son. A soldier hands him something. The sender isn’t known. He leaves. Acharya Chanakya checks it. it is a book. Acharya Chanakya reads the amount of weapons Sushim has taken from their weapon room. Mahamadhya was right. Sushim was surely making his own army. There is also a letter from mahamadhya. He calls Acharya to one place alone.

Ashoka walks angrily on the road. Acharya gave me such a big responsibility and I failed. How would I know about my mother’s enemy now?

Acharya Chanakya reaches the said place. Mahamadhya greets him. I was certain you would come. Did you tell anyone about your coming here? Acharya says I live by my words. What you did today towards Magadh has made me very happy. you will be paid back for this good deed of yours once Ashoka becomes the Samrat. He asks about the weapons which Sushim is stealing from the armoury. Helena says what the rush is. Acharya turns to look at her. Charumita, Sushim, Mahamadhya and Helena surround him from all the four sides. Mahamadhya laughs at Acharya. They all take out a dagger each. Helena stabs Acharya.

Precap: Sushim stabs Acharya as well. Ashoka reads the message that Mahamadhya had written for Acharya. He runs torwards that side of the palace. Mahamadhya also stabs Acharya.

Episode 217 - 26th November 2015        

Acharya looks at all of them one by one. Helena remarks that the enemy of an enemy is actually a friend. You only have written it. This is why all the enemies have taken a stand against you today. Flashback is shown. Sushim and Charumita are angry with Acharya as he has ruined all their plans. Helena joins them as well. Let us end Chanakya’s story. He has crossed all the limits. He is our oldest enemy. My father had to face many defeats a lot many times. My son died because of him. Now he wants Ashoka to sit on the throne. How can we bear it? He is not just my enemy but yours too. Sushim knows how smart Chanakya is. He must be keeping an eye on us. He might have gotten all the more alert after the attack made by Noor. Mahamadhya steps in. We will use this very enmity against him. We will act to be his friend. Charumita says he will never trust us. Mahamadhya says neither of you have to do it. I will do it on my own. I will win his trust. He would never imagine what happens with him next. Flashback ends.

Mahamadhya says a shloka. Whoever becomes friend with people will bad mentality, people who try to hurt others, people who live in a bad place gets destroyed real soon. You made the same mistake. Acharya says I wouldn’t have been surprised if Helena, Sushim and Charumita would have come to attack me, but you? You are so wise. You are an Acharya. You should have some beliefs and might have some today too. This is why I passed your name when we were selecting Mahamadhya for Magadh. Mahamadhya thinks of the same. Acharya wonders how he switched sides. Why did you decide to support the traitors? What compelled you to become a murderer? Mahamadhya calls him his helplessness. You made me Mahamadhya and tried to make me indebted to you. You knew you will become great in everyone’s eyes if you will give up on that position. I will only end up as your disciple. You still didnt give me full freedom. You continuously insulted me and tried to show me down. The times have changed. Magadh needs something new. Old will have to go. The sad part is you will have to sacrifice your life for what could have happened easily. It is important to kill you as you are standing in everyone’s way. You aren’t ready to back off at all.

Chanakya asks him if he should back down for these selfish people. They are cheating their motherland and their citizens for their own selfish reasons. You wont understand. You haven’t lived the dream of a united India in your every passing second of life. Only those people can understand its importance who knows after how many sacrifices and attempts this dream has come true. This isn’t for some personal selfish reason. it is important for an entire state or country. Not just the people of India but the entire world should take benefit from it. sitting on that throne doesn’t mean that the Samrat should be powerful. The important thing is the responsibility which that person has to fulfil. It is useless to explain anything to you. Helena says we are all fed up of all these great talks. You yourself forget them at time. Mahamadhya says you say you aren’t greedy for throne. You are always interested in finding out or deciding who will sit on the throne. Charumita too asks him who gave him the right to take decisions on their behalf. Chanakya reasons that all his decisions are made for the benefit for Magadh. They have all been taken against the enemies of Magadh. No one has forced me for anything ever. It was my own vow. I will do anything to fulfil that vow. You all might kill me today but my ideals, my values and I will live always through Ashoka. Ashoka will surely put them into practise.

Sushim gets angry hearing him praising Ashoka. What do you see in that Ashoka that you are ready to make him sit on the throne? What do I lack? Tell me why do you feel he is better than me? Chanakya says he means the meaning of the word Acharya. He selflessly takes care of everyone. The citizens who get such a king are actually the kings. They live with respect. There is no difference left between the king and the citizens. Magadh and entire India will see a better future because of such King only, where there is no rich or poor. Mahamadhya points out that this is the reason which stopped him from becoming Samrat. You made Chandragupta Samrat in the end. You are so stubborn. You might not sit on the throne but only you should take the decision as to who will sit on the throne. You started thinking of yourself as God as fate supported you once. No Chanakya, your time is up now.

Sushim says I, Sushim Maurya, the eldest son of Samrat Bindusar, will snatch the throne of Magadh by force. I am feeling bad of the fact that you wont even get a chance to witness that historic moment. You wont even live till then. Acharya replies how entire lineage is ruined because of one bad son. When there is a good person in the same lineage then the darkness goes away. I might not live to see what will happen in future but it isn’t tough for me to figure out the future. History will certainly accept you as Samrat Bindusar’s eldest son but they will only praise Ashoka. Ashoka only will become the Samrat! He will become the servant of the citizens. He will be loved by them. Not just Magadh but he will rule on entire India’s heart. He will rule for humanity. His every decision will be for others. No one will be able to erase his name from history. That person will fail. Time will prove it. Helena and Mahamadhya laughs at him. Sushim asks him where is so called imaginary Samrat is. Charumita too wants to know if he wont come to save his Guru. They all laugh at him.

Mir Khurasan is speaking to Daastan. I wont spare Bindu for what he has done. Daastan rebukes him for his past mistake. Years ago, you forced her to marry Bindusar against her wish. You didnt even ask her what she wants. You are responsible for her condition. You changed her destiny the day you fixed her alliance with Bindu. Mir says I made the biggest mistake of my life by getting her married to Bindu. I can never forget myself for it. Daastan reminds him that they are Khurasanis. We don’t cry at situations. We change them. this has been our mission since always. We always find a way out of problems. I have found one this time too. Mir gets curious. Everyone will be watching our every movement carefully this time. Daastan is still sure they will get out of here safely. I have warned Helena of the consequences in case something happens to me. She only will take me out now. Mir agrees to do whatever he will ask from him, if he helps him get out of here. Daastan wants to take revenge for Noor’s death. I want to fulfil her last dream. I want Siamak to sit on the throne.

Ashoka cannot see Acharya in his room. He said he will wait for me here only. He didnt even leave me a message. I should inform him asap about whatever happened. where should I look for him? He notices a letter lying there. He reads it.

Acharya says it isn’t important that Ashoka will come to save me and succeeds. Important thing is he will keep the knowledge that his Guru has given him, alive till forever. Ashoka runs towards the place mentioned in the letter. Acharya says I am not scared of death at the moment. If I die today then your deaths will come soon too. Epi ends on Ashoka’s face.

Precap: Acharya’s disciple speaks to Bindu and Dharma. Acharya Chanakya has found out that someone did black magic on Devi Dharma. Bindu asks him if Acharya is certain of this fact. Acharya’s disciple speaks of proofs that Acharya has got. Bindu wants to know the name of the culprit. I want the name of that person. I will kill that person with my own hands. Mahamadhya stabs Acharya. Ashoka is still on his way. He calls out for Acharya as he nears that place.

Episode 218 - 27th November 2015        

The Episode starts with Chanakya telling Helena that the knowledge which Ashok obtained by his Guru, he will never misuse it, this is the satisfaction and trust on him which makes me fearless towards death, if death comes ot me today, then it will soon come to you all too. He says Devi Helena, you are such a bad Unani, your existence will be erased. Helena stabs the knife in his stomach angrily. Chanakya looks at her. All the enemies there attack at Chanakya one after another. Chanayka recalls seeing a tiger and then Ashoka. He thinks of Samrat Ashoka. Ashoka is finding Chanakya and feels that some bad thing is going to happen.

Bindusara also notices the bad weather and thundering and says this is not a good sign. Chanakya gets stabbed and falls down. Helena says I think we should stab him one more time. They see the storm winds blowing. Siamak enters the hut. Helena tells Siamak that this is your biggest enemy, stab on his heart and kill him. Siamak says my mother and my beloved Guru died because of you, you don’t deserve to live, I hate you and that Ashok who stays in your heart. She stabs on his chest. Chanakya falls down and shouts Ashok. Ashok hears his voice and thinks Acharya ji is calling me for help. Mahamatya Khallatak says this is the death they all gave to Chanakya.

Helena says no one will know who has killed Chanakya. Chanakya lies wounded. Mahamatya Khallatak puts kerosene around him and come out. They light the hut and smiling seeing the fire sight. They all leave from there.

Dharma tells about the bad dream. She says she has seen fire around Ashok, as if he is stuck in problem. Radhagupt tells her about the problems, its good Chanakya knew about black magic, and he failed its effect, we will soon know who did it. Dharma asks who will do this. Radhagupt says Ashok and Chanakya are trying to why that person was using Tantra shakti against you to give you a cursed life. Bindusara hears them. Radhagupt greets him and tells him that Chanakya got to know about Tantra Shakti affecting Dharma, all her bad health symptoms were there, Chanakya has made her free of that Tantra Shakti. Bindusara asks who is that man, I will not leave him and punish him death by my hands. Radhagupt says Ashok and Chanakya are finding about that, I hope we will know the enemy before sunset today.

Susheem and Charumitra are happy, as no one has doubted on them, the lady who did Tantra Shakti is dead and even Chanakya too. Susheem says whatever Mahamatya Khallatak did today, I m sure he will save me, I did not imagine Siamak will be against Ashok, see how Helena took advantage today. She says yes, we should be careful, she helped us today and can ask returns. I will not let Dharma and Samrat Bindusara unite.

Bindusara says I m sorry, I did not know this and could not protect you. She says forget all this, we should think we are lucky to have a Guru like Chanakya, he made us know this tantra shakti thing. Bindusara says I did not believe Chanakya and doubted on you, I did not know my Dharma will do this, whom I trust so much, my heart was not believing this. She says your words are enough for me. He says its not enough for me and folds hands to apologize to her. She smiles and hugs him.

Ashoka reaches the place and sees the hut on fire. He jumps to reach there. Mahamatya Khallatak burns Chanakya’s Shastra book in havan kund. He says today a Yug ended. Chanakya’s chapter is over, so his Shastra will also be ruined. I will protect Magadh and coming generations will not even know Chanakya. He laughs. Radhagupt asks Badrabhatt about Chanakya. Badrbhatt says I don’t know. Radhagupt asks about Ashok. He gets to know form a lady that Ashok has gone somewhere, no one knows about him, he looked worried. Raghagupt is worried and doubts big danger coming on Magadh.

Ashok goes inside the hut and shouts Acharya seeing him wounded. He jumps inside the hut, and sees him bleeding. He covers a shawl to Acharya and lifts him on his back. He takes Acharya outside and asks him not to worry, he will get water. Chanakya holds his hand and stops him, saying he has no time. Ashok asks who has done this. Chanakya says I will ask Guru Dakshina today, will you give? Ashok nods and cries. Chanakya says he got him here as he believed that the peaceful dynasty he and Chandragupt Maurya visualized, just you will be making it possible, your greatness will become pride of the land, promise me you will become such Samrat. Ashok promises him. Chanakya says my journey ends here and your journey starts. He loses his breath and dies. A lion roars. Ashok closes his eyes and cries. The tree flowers fall over Chanakya.

Precap: Bindusara is shocked seeing Chanakya dead. He asks Ashok how did this happen. Ashok says this was not a tragic accident, it was all planned. Mahamatya Khallatak, Charumitra, Helena and Sushim look on tensely.

Ashok says no, Sushim says dont start blame game rightnow, Ashok says I am sure because someone tried to hurt my mother too by using black magic, Charu says but black magic is not allowed in Magadh, its not true, Bindu says Ashok is saying truth, Dharma’s changed behavior was because of black magic that was done on her, Chanakya saved Dharma from black magic. Ashok says Chanakya went to find the person who did black magic on my mother.

Episode 220 - 1st December 2015        

Bindu and everyone rush to the prison area but it is empty. What’s happening in Patliputra? Has our security gotten so weak? Helena wonders if Daastan killed Chanakya. Mahamadhya says it might be. Charu says Mir and Daastan would want to take revenge for Noor’s death. They know that nothing can happen to Magadh till Acahrya is alive. Maybe they only killed him. Bindu regrets leaving Mir alive. I did the biggest mistake. I am to be blamed for Acharya’s death. I forgave Mir. I gave him a chance to attack again. He should have killed me. Why Acharya? I wont let his sacrifice go in vain. I will certainly take revenge! He tells Mahamadhya that he wants Daastan and Mir, dead or alive! They just should not get away.

Dharma cries in her room. I will never forgive myself. You (Ashoka) kept fighting for Acharya so you both could save me. Acharya wanted Mir to be given death penaltly. I stopped him. Acharya lost his life because of him. Everyone’s life is in danger today because of me. He used to say that nothing could happen to Ashoka till he is with us. I realise his meaning now. He hugs his mother. I wont spare them this time. They are Magadh’s enemies after all. He touches her head. I swear I will find Daastan. I will get him punished. If I fail, then I wont see my Acharya for the last time. She looks at him in shock.

Mahamadhya gives a half burnt knife to Bindu. The symbol over it is of Khurasanis. This leaves no doubt that Daastan is behind it. Bindu says Daastan has actually stabbed Aryavashi’s. We have to give him a fitting reply. They would not have gone to far.

Bindu makes an announcement. Whoever will bring the culprit before us will be given prize money! Ashoka walks in saying that’s not required. The stain that Daastan has put on Maurya vansh will be cleaned by Mauryavanshi only. Allow me to go and punish him. Mahamadhya says this isn’t the right time to go. Bindu is proud of Ashoka. Surely go! Mahamadhya looks on helplessly.

Mir and Daastan are near a river. Mir thinks of how they both got out of the prison. Mir throws a sharp rod kind of thing towards Daastan’s cell. Daastan picks it up. Mir coughs and asks for water. He hits the soldier and then frees Daastan. They both kill all the soldiers who try to stop them. They next jump in the river. Flashback ends. Mir asks Daastan where they have to go now. How far are your men? Daastan denies. You are not coming with me. I forgave Noor once as I loved her. You gave her to Bindu. How do I forgive you? Mir isn’t afraid of his threat. If you had to leave me here then you wouldn’t have taken me away from there. Daastan kills him. How could I see you dying if I had left you behind? Mir falls. Daastan says goodbye to him as he walks away.

Acharya’s disciple asks Ashoka how he will find Daastan. Ashoka shows them a map. They jumped in the river. They must be hurt. They could not have gone against the tide. They must be tired. Daastan will choose the safest possible route of exit from him which is from the jungles. He will wait for the right time to get out of here. His friend reasons that the jungle is huge. How will we find him so soon? The last rite of Acharya is tomorrow morning. Ashoka reasons that they wont go to him. He will come to us. Acharya used to say that cowards walk in crowd. Acharya’s disciple prays that Ashoka succeeds. He does tilak of Ashoka with the dirt. Ashoka touches his feet to take his blessings. He blesses Ashoka.

Helena questions Bindu. How can you let Ashoka go? He is a kid. We know how strong Daastan is. How can we send Ashoka like this? Charu too advises Dharma to protect Ashoka. Dharma asks her if she can stop the storm. I would never want him to take a wrong path but I cannot stop him from fulfilling his duty. This is his duty at the moment. Bindu says I trust Ashoka. He leaves. Charu remarks how Ashoka became great in Samrat’s eyes once again. Helena is worried that Daastan might speak truth before Ashoka if he gets caught.

At night, Daastan walks in the jungle. He hears a group of people walking from there. They are all dressed in white. Daastan thinks of joining the group. There can be no better way to get out from here. He cuts his hairs. Ashoka senses something. Daastan kills a man and wears his clothes. He also rubs white colour on his face. He joins the group. Ashoka notices him. He is all alone. Where is Mir or his soldiers? They both ran away together. A guy greets Acharya / Daastan. Ashoka turns. He pours water on Daastan’s face. His identity is revealed. Daastan and Ashoka remove the clothes from around their chests. They take out their swords. All the other group of people stand around in a circle. Daastan says this time you brought your army. Ashoka replies that he alone will be enough for him today.

Dharma prays for her son’s safety.

Ashoka and Daastan engage in sword fight. On the other hand, Dharma continuously rings the bell in the temple. Ashoka attacks Daastan who gets wounded in the process.

Precap: Ashoka does the last rites of Acharya. I vow that I will not sit peacefully till I take revenge for your death. I will certainly give you this Guru Dakshina. I will become the Samrat.

Episode 221 - 2nd December 2015        

Ashoka kills Daastan.

Dharma faints while ringing temple bell.

Next morning, Bindu is waiting for Ashoka. Mahamadhya says it is too late already. We should not wait. So many people have come to bid adieu to Acharya. It will be wrong to keep them waiting. Plus Acharya’s body is badly burnt. Bindu agrees. Make preps for his last rites. Right then, he notices Ashoka coming on his horse.

Ashoka throws Daastan’s dead body on the ground. Bindu is very proud of his son. They share a hug. Dharma looks on proudly. Helena asks about Mir. Ashoka shares that he was not with Daastan. They separated ways after getting out of the river. Helena thinks that either Mir has chosen a separate way or is still in Magadh and plotting.

Everyone gathers outside to bid adieu to Acharya. Dharma, Bindu, Ashoka and Acharya’s disciple is in tears. Everyone puts flowers on Acharya’s dead body one by one. Bindu announces that he wont let Acharya’s sacrifice go in vain. Enemies might have killed him but his ideologies will always remain. He had dedicated his life to one dream – dream of united India. We will never let it break. The soldiers pay homage to Acharya. Helena thinks that she too doesn’t want it. The bigger and united India is the bigger ruler Siamak will become. Charu too thinks of making her son the ruler of India, even if Bindu is against it. Dharma mentally thanks Acharya. I will be indebted to you for everything till my last breath. You united a father and son. You did so much for Ashoka. I will do my best to take it forward.

All the men pull the cart in which Chanakya’s body is kept. It gets stuck in a pothole. Ashoka moves it out of that pothole. All the preps for Acharya’s last rites have been made. Bindu, Sushim, Ashoka keep a piece of log each over Acharya’s body. Ashoka tearfully folds his hands. Mahamadhya and Acharya’s disciple follow suit. Pundit ji asks Bindu to do Acharya’s last rites but Bindu requests Ashoka to do it. Acharya would want it too. Acharya’s disciple too nods at Ashoka. Ashoka takes the pot of water from his father’s hands. Ashoka does the last rites of Acharya. He thinks of how he killed Daastan. Flashback is shown. Daastan tells Ashoka that he came here for his love. Your enemies are in your palace. They are your loved ones only. They are much more dangerous and clever than me. Ashoka asks him for the names but Daastan dies. Flashback ends. I promise you that I will not sit peacefully till I take revenge for your death. I will find those culprits. I will certainly give you this Guru Dakshina. I will become the Samrat – Samrat Ashoka! This is the promise of a disciple to his Guru.

Ashoka stands beside the pyre till the end. Acharya’s disciple keeps his hand on Ashoka’s shoulder. They both look at the ashes. Ashoka says I am directionless today. My Guru left me. Disiple denies. Guru never leaves his disciples. Acharya knew about his death already so he left this letter for you. He gave me clear instructions. If anything happens to him then I should give it to you.

Ashoka reads it. I found a son, grandson and disciple in you. Guru never differentiates between his disciples but you are different than others. If this letter is in your hands then it means that I am no more. Remember that people like me are murdered. Understand that the enemies of Magadh have become more cunning and merciless. You will have to be a step ahead of them. Ashoka wonders who these enemies are. Acharya’s disciple says Acharya used to say that the enemies are inside the palace only. We know nothing of them. Ashoka continues reading the letter. My motto was to make Magadh’s future secure. I did so by bringing you here. Your karmas will determine my success! The letter flies away and burns in the pyre. Acharya’s disciple suggests Ashoka to keep Acharya’s values alive in his heart. We will have to find out the enemies and follow the right path. I am with you. He does tilak of Ashoka using the ashes.

Precap: Charu requests Bindu to stop Sushim from going. Bindu offers to go but Ashoka steps forward. I will go.

Episode 222 - 3rd December 2015        

Acharya’s killers are celebrating his death. Sushim mocks Ashoka. While lighting the pyre, he must be thinking that he became an orphan. You were the only fool to think I am better than Sushim and trusted me! Everyone laughs hearing it. He also mocks Acharya. He would have said that he has no doubt on Ashoka’s capabilities. He didnt know he was mistaken. He keeps mocking both Ashoka and Acharya. They all laugh. Mahamadhya suggests him to speak in lower tones. Someone might hear. Sushim says cowardice doesn’t suit you after doing what we did. We will give the same punishment to whoever hears it. Relax and enjoy. It is because of you and Rajmata Helena that Daastan was blamed for it. Mahamadhya tries to say something but Helena doesn’t let him speak. Forget what happened. Celebrate! Ashoka interrupts them. It wont be forgotten ever and I will make sure no one else forgets it too! They are all shocked to see him there. Ashoka praises them. Entire Magadh is lamenting over Acharya’s loss and you all are drinking already! He pours the drink around them in a circle. It seems like a victory celebration. World knows that Daastan has killed Acharya. Today, I have come to tell you a secret. Daastan has not killed Acharya. The culprit is right inside the palace! Helena says Acharya’s death has affected you badly. Ashoka stops her. This is the only place in the entire place where a celebration is going on. Now I have no doubt about the fact that the culprit is right here.

He walks closer to Helena. It can be you as your son Justin was given death penalty because of Acharya. He inches closer to Sushim next. It is a well known fact that Acharya wanted to make me the successor. He says the similar things to Charu. You can go to any extent to make your son sit on the throne. He turns to Mahamadhya in the end. There is no doubt that Acharya was in your way. You could have never become greater than him till he was alive. Sushim asks him to present proof. There is a proper protocol and rules for justice. We wont listen to whatever you say. Ashoka points out that proofs are needed for things that happen in court. This is personal. Someone has killed my Guru. A city’s rules will never be able to get the right punishment to Acharya’s killer. I have been brought up in jungles. The biggest rule there is that there is no rule. This will become the main motto of my revenge now. The day I find out the killer, that day will be the last day of that person’s life. That day isn’t far! The negative countdown for the culprit starts now! He throws a lit diya at the trail of liquor. The room catches fire. All four of them shout for help. Ashoka walks out of the room.

Next morning, Ashoka does puja. He thinks of his past feud with Sushim. He recalls seeing Helena trying to free Justin from the prison. Someone stands behind him holding a dagger in his hand. It is Siamak. He angrily walks closer towards Ashoka. He thinks of how he had stabbed Acharya. Helena pulls him aside. Siamak is worried thinking that Ashoka knows the truth. He wont spare us. Helena shushes him. Ashoka leaves from there. Helena tells Siamak that Ashoka could come to this point only because of Chanakya. He is completely broken. He wont be able to do anything without Acharya. He will end up slowly. How will he do anything when Acharya couldn’t do anything? Who is he!

Mahamadhya shares that he has made an announcement in Magadh. Whoever gets Mir alive will be given prize money. Bindu asks him why a new commander hasn’t been appointed yet. Mahamadhya has already made a list for the same. Ashoka suggests that the person should be personally chosen this time. There have been so many attacks on palace recently. Bindu agrees. People plead to Bindu to help them. They are from Takhshila. They share their problems with Bindu. Bindu says we get max benefit from Takshshila’s returns. Why wasn’t I made aware of all the problems? How did this happen? The guys share that Sudama ji is there only for namesake at the moment. The wrong people are misusing Sudama for own personal reasons. Takshshila was a pious place once but now it is almost empty. Everyone is vacating Takshshila because of fear. Ashoka asks them who that person is. One of the guy shares that he had attacked Kalinga earlier also and broke Chanakya and Chandragupta Maurya’s dream. Bindu realises that it is Kichak. Flashback shows Sudama requesting Bindu not to kill Kichak. He is my wife’s sister. He will never do such thing again. I will take responsibility. Flashback ends. Bindu regrets forgiving Kichak. Acharya was against it. He was right. We should kill the enemy altogether or it can come to seek revenge anytime. It is time to rectify my mistake. Bindu announces that Sushim will leave for Takshshila tomorrow morning itself.

Sushim asks his mother and Mahamadhya to do anything to stop him from going to Takshshila. Mahamadhya reasons that they still have the night to change Samat’s decision.

Ashoka is reading something. Dharma asks him about it. He is reading about Takshshila. Why no one writes about us in Magadh? How will future generation get to know about us? I have found many interesting facts about Takshshila. It is sad to know that Takshshila is almost on the brink of end today. Dharma says knowledge is a big contributor in any state. Educated people will never accept anything that is wrong. Ashoka is worried thinking if Sushim will be able to handle the situation. Dharma nods. You too should trust him. Acharya suggested his name. Ashoka is in thoughts.

Precap: Charu requests Bindu to stop Sushim from going to Takshshila. Bindu offers to go but Ashoka steps forward. I will go.

Episode 223 - 4th December 2015        

Sushim takes his father’s blessings. Chanakya was a great Acharya. I will be glad if I am able to live up to his expectations. Charu asks him not to go. I feel as if something wrong is going to happen. He reassures her that he will be back safe. A cart enters just then. Bindu signals the soldiers to check. They lay forward an unconscious guy on the ground. There is a message with it. Mahamadhya reads it. This guy had come to inform us about Kichak’s tortures. Kichak has challenged Bindu and Sushim in the letter. I have sent back the guy in one piece but it wont happen with Sushim. Sushim starts acting. I will not sit peacefully till I kill Kichak. I don’t care if I live or die! Charu gives him her swear. Sushim denies. it is about our motherland. He begins to go. Charu calls out for him. You will see me dead if you go now. She acts to faint. Sushim holds her. Mahamadhya smiles.

Sushim requests his father not to change his decision because of Kichak’s strength. Mahamadhya speaks of Maurvya lineage’s prestige. Charu refuses to put her son’s life at stake. I only have one son. I wont let him go! He wont pay for the prestige of Maurya lineage with his life. Sushim tells his mother not to fall weak. You should bless me actually. You should be proud of me even if I lose my life for motherland. Charu stays put. You have my swear. You wont leave. If you leave then you wont be able to see me for the last time too! He asks her why she is snatching this golden chance from him to serve his motherland. Please take your words back. Charu requests Bindu to stop Sushim from going to Takshshila. Flashback shows Mahamadhya killing that trader in reality. It was he who had kept that fake letter on the cart. It will force Samrat to change his decision. Flashback ends. Sushim acts to be angry with his mother. Kichak will think that we are cowards. Bindu tells him not to speak in this tone with his mother. Mahamadhya seconds Sushim.

Helena suggests a solution. Samrat himself should go and give a fitting reply to Kichak. Ashoka thinks that everyone is trapping his father. What if they are thinking of harming father in a similar manner like they trapped Acharya! It is important that father stays here so mother and he are safe. Bindu offers to go but Ashoka steps forward. I will go. Bindu declines. Why should I send you when I am not sending you my one son? Ashoka reasons that Kichak will be surprised as he has no idea it will be I who is coming. Mahamadhya reminds them how he proposed this in the first place. Acharya’s disciple points out that sending Ashoka will mean disrespect to Acharya. Ashoka politely says that the situation back then was different. He would support me if he had been here today. Mahamadhya was appointed by Acharya only. We should respect his decision. Brother will be happy that I want to learn things my way. He turns to his father. I have full faith in me. I can manage this situation well. If you don’t allow me then I will think that you don’t trust me enough. Bindu asks for some time to ponder over it. He leaves. Sushim tells Ashoka that he dug a grave for himself. Ashoka says I have to start from somewhere to live up to my words. I will do whatever is necessary for the same. He walks out.

Acharya’s disciple cannot understand why Ashoka is doing this. Acharya wanted you to be with your father and learn from him. Don’t be emotional. It will only help your enemies. Your enemies are right here. How will you fight with them if you wont be here? Ashoka says I will do it just like my grandfather did it in the past. One has to win the outer boundaries of the stae first and then get inside. This is my plan. Acharya’s disciple worries that Sushim might succeed in his plans. Ashoka says that can happen while I am here too. They can kill me too if they have killed Acharya. They want me to die by Kichak’s hands. It will increase their confidence. They will do some mistake which will end up becoming a hurdle for them only. I am sure father will agree.

Ashoka comes to his father’s room. There is no other way. I know you don’t agree with me. Please allow me to explain my point once. Acharya wanted me to be with you, to learn from you. He dint want you to go on your own. You do remember what happened here in your absence in the past. We should also respect what he dint say. He has proposed Sushim’s name but he cannot go. You too shall not go. Siamak and Drupad are too young. Bindu says you don’t know Kichak’s mentality. Ashoka reasons that that is the same with Kichak. There is no person who can never lose. I don’t know how to make you believe it that I am fit for this. I can only request you. I can do this much for Acharya atleast. Takshshila was close to Acharya. Ashoka tells his father that I want to give a small portion of Guru-Dakshina to Acharya by killing Kichak. By winning over Takshshila, I want the entire world to realise and understand it that the dream of united India will never break. We will always be ready to face any problem that will come in the way. If you stop me today then it will be bad for me. Bindu allows him to go. May you win! Ashoka promises not to disappoint him. Bindu says I will always be proud of you, whatever may be the consequences! They share a hug.

Helena sends a message. Ashoka thinks that Kichak does not know about him. He will make Kichak lose. He doesn’t know that death will be there to welcome him before he reaches there. Bindu will never find out about his oldest enemy who will snatch Ashoka from him. it is time to cut the seeds we had sown years earlier. Nicator had helped Kichak when he lost to Bindu. Kichak will kill Ashoka. I will kill Sushim. Siamak’s way will be clear.

Precap: Sushim tells Mahamadhya that this time Ashoka dint get emotional. There is some reason behind his move. Charu tells him not to lose this chance to come closer to his father. I wont let Dharma come closer to Samrat ever again!

Episode 224 - 7th December 2015        

The hands of two men are tied on a rope from each side. They are made to stand n glasses. Blood is coming out of their feet. There is fire all around. A soldier walks in. I have been sent by Kichak to question you. You wont be able to walk if you don’t tell us about him. They say they don’t know anything. The soldier picks up hot knife and hurts them on their chest. They scream in pain. Another soldier says we just got info about the third trader. Someone killed him, but why? The soldier says only Kichak will know. I only know how to follow rules. He kills both the men. Kichak says, those who are no more useful to us become a burden.

Sushim is angry with Ashoka. He cannot win this time. Mahamadhya says you only wanted Ashoka to go to Takshshila. He only proposed to go. You should be happy instead. Sushim reasons that Ashoka has a reason this time to go. He dint get emotional at all while making his decision. I said the same thing last time but he wasn’t ready to leave his mother alone. What happened now? How did he got so emotional about motherland suddenly? Something has certainly happened. Charu says it doesn’t matter. You will get a chance to come close to your father. I too will not leave this opportunity. I will separate Samrat from Dharma.

Ashoka is in the temple. He recalls Acharya’s last words to him about his dream of united India. His words echo in his head. I never thought that I will go so far leaving my mother alone. Truth is, not just mine but entire Magadh’s mothers’ will be unsafe if I don’t go. I have no other option than this. I will have to make this sacrifice. Please give me strength. My mother’s love for me should make me strong, not weak. Siamak keeps his hand on Ashoka’s shoulder. I know how you must be feeling. I know how hard it is to live without your mother and Guru. I too had felt the same when I had lost my Guru Justin. He had to die before me. I could do nothing to save him. I know how helpless and unsafe you feel. You too must be going through the same phase. I used to hear his last words all of a sudden. I think of my mother at times. She left her son all of a sudden. Why did she have to do all that? She should have thought of the consequences. I always think that I will understand her position the day I become something. I know that evil gets an evil ending only. Good always wins. No one can replace your mother. Similarly, no one can fill in my mother’s place. Yet, I will always take care and look after Mata Dharma. Ashoka is very thankful to him and relieved. I only trust you. He hugs Siamak. Helena comes out from behind. Siamak and Helena look at each other. Siamak thinks that Ashoka is not coming back. If, by chance you do, then there will be nothing left for you here!

Dharma is packing Ashoka’s clothes. A Daasi bring laddoos. She is in tears. She thinks of the old times when she used to feed laddoos to her son with her own hands. Ashoka comes there so she wipes her tears. She is a little upset with him for deciding to go to Takshshila without even telling her. I know you want to help them. I know it is important for you to go there. He asks her why she is sad then. She replies that you don’t think about your mother while making any decisions of your life now. You didnt even tell me later. You have grown up now. He keeps his head in her lap. I can grow up but I will always be your kid. The situation was such that I had to decide this. My journey ahead isn’t easy. It is very tough. But you are my strength. You will guide me throughout. Your values about righteousness, dharma will help me. Dharma-putra cannot help but follow dharma. She cries as she caresses his hairs. I never stopped you from following dharma. My only worry is, hope you never hurt an innocent person. Ashoka says I will not forget your values to achieve something in life. I will become protector. I promise you, I will never hurt an innocent person. A soldier comes to call Ashoka. You have been called by Samrat. Ashoka leaves.

Bindu wants to discuss the plan of action with Mahamadhya. Radha Gupta suggests him otherwise. Ashoka wants it to be amongst us three only. Kichak has got info that Sushim is coming whereas we are sending Ashoka. Ashoka adds Chanakya’s words. You get more successful if you keep your plans a secret. We have to make sure there is no loophole. He explains his plan of action to Bindu. We will have to take the way which normally traders use. There is a possibility that Kichak will get to know about our arrival. He might try to kill us. We have to protect ourselves. We don’t have any idea about his army and men. If war starts near the exteriors then all the people living there will die. Bindu asks him what he has thought. Ashoka hints at the sea route. It is tough to attack that ways. They will take days to be successful even if they try. I will enter inside Takshshika before that. Bindu reasons that it will be a problem for them. In case, either of us want to contact one another then it will be a next to impossible kind of situation. Ashoka says this is what no one will expect from us. I want to make use of it and surprise Kichak. Bindu is worried for Ashoka. How will you do it alone? Ashoka says the one who has the blessings of his Guru and parents is never alone. Bindu blesses him.

Bindu gives a letter to Helena. She supports his idea. You should take care of internal security till the time we find someone who we can rely upon. Bindu nods.

The soldier guarding the cells reads the same message and allows the soldiers inside. He opens a secret passage. The soldiers kill those guys and enter inside. A man is kept tied there with chains. The soldiers free him. They take him to some other place.

Later on, Helena meets that man. Flashback shows Helena bribing the soldiers. She wanted to know about Amadhya from him. He is the one who had spoken against CHanakya in the past. His name will be written in history as a black stain/traitor on Magadh’s history. Flashback ends. Helena gives him the good news of Chanakya’s death. The man thinks of Chanakya again. He refuses to believe it. How can he die without losing to me? I only needed one chance. I will be defeated before him for life now. It is not a good news for me! what’s the point of this life if there is no opponent like Chanakya against you? My life has lost its meaning! It is better to die instead. She calls out for him as he begins to walk away. Chanakya died but his life isn’t over yet. He is the name of a thought, a dream, a mission. You can end it and be victorious! The real win will be when the world will forget him. It can happen only if you will make a better place for yourself than him. You will have to end the 3 princes of Magadh for that – Sushi, Drupad and Ashoka! You have to end all the possibilities of letting any Maurya rule in future. He asks about Siamak. She shares that her grandson has the mixed blood of Unani and Khurasani. He isn’t a Maurya! This was Justin’s last wish. I need your help for the same. I can give you anything in return. Amadhya gets thinking.

NO PRECAP

Episode 225 - 8th December 2015        

Episode starts with some pujari doing aarti of Ashok before he leaves for Takshila.

Bindu gives him a maurya coin and tells about the pride and honour.

He tells Ashok this is the official order for you to go to Takshila and fire sudama from his post and take over the reign. After that you have to capture Keechak and bring Takshila back to normal. Then you will open the trade route and in meanwhile I will do arrangements to get rid of Keechak from Takshila.

Ashok then takes out the CGM sword and pledges to destroy the enemies of Magadh. The CC are fuming in anger seeing all these. Dharma can’t stop grinning. Bindu gives Ashok advice than when you are ready to injure somebody you should also be ready to get injured.

RG starts “Rajkumar Ashok ki Jai” and everybody follows. Siamak looks like he will blow his fuse.

Jerkshim actually blows his lid and starts kicking things in his room.

Corruptak and VQ asks him to stay silent and find positives . Ashok wont return from Takshila alive.

Jerkshim says but he does escape every time. I need to make a full proof plan to kill him.

VQ says now not only Ashok but Siamak is also your competition. Jerkshim says I dont care about him. VQ narrates what Siamak did with AC and he can also do this to you.

Jerkshim is hurt that her mother believes in Siamak more than him and is afraid of him.

He runs from that room and goes to his room where there is a girl preparing drinks for him. She turns around in style spraying water from her hair on Sushim. (OH dear filmy CVs. ) SHe serves a drink to jerkshim and tells him to sit and enjoy her company. Jerkshim is gonna drink but throws and tells the girl to get out. The girl then scratches Jerkshim and he faints as she is a vishkanya. SOme people come and kidnap Jerkshim.

VQ comes looking for him but could not find him and is looking worried. Corruptak says Jerkshim has all qualities but his anger destroys everything.

A really nice Ashok family scene where Ashok is talking with Dharma and Bbindu comes and assures ashok he will take care of dharma.

There is also a scene where ashok goes to take blessings of AC and says maa says to take blessing before leaving for an important work but guru is also like a god so i have come here to take your blessing.

Next scene is RAC (Rakshacharya) has kidnapped Jerkshim and tells all about himself. How he was instrumental in CGM defeating dhananand but AC threw me like a fly from milk. Now I have to take revenge from him but he is dead so I want to help you in defeating his chosen one Ashoka. Jerkshim asks what will you get, why are you helping me? RAC says when you become samrat I want my respect and dignity back. Jerkshim agrees. RAc then tells him to write a letter and stamp his sign on that letter.

Next is another good family scene where Ashok Dharma and Bindu are eating and looking really happy. Dharma tells Ashok to keep writing letters to them. Ashok says dont worry and feeds Dharma and also tells her to take proper rest. Next Bindu says the same thing about keeping in contact and Ashok feeds him too and says dont worry and start horse riding soon.

Bindu says see our son is teaching me. Dharma says yes he has now grown in to a big boy and we should think about his marriage. Ashok says I dont have time for marriage. Dharma shuts him up and says love does not need time, it happens . (I hoped CVs will show Ashok thinking about Ahankara or An ashkara flashback ).

Gussamak (since he is always angry ) sees this from far and gets more angry that his father never loved him like that. Helena poisons him more and says you will have to snatch what you want to get.

Precap: Ashok leaving for Takshila.

To be continued...
