When Laxman Singh conditionally permits the British to use the port for trading purposes, Sangha finds out that the British are taking out gold and jewelry and bringing in ammunition, and puts a stop to this. He goes to report this outrage to Laxman Singh, only to find him stabbed to death. Sanga is charged with treason and of killing Laxman Singh.

Bharat rescues Kareem before he is killed. In response Shamsher appoints Shakti his new commander of the armed forces. Shamsher's own son Prince (Dheeraj Kumar) is very pissed with this decision, but Shamsher explains he did this, so no-one would accuse him of bias when he appoints Prince to be the new King.
