Durga reveals to Munshiji, a representative of Thakur Sangram Singh, that her late husband was the Thakur’s son who married her against his father’s wishes. Durjan Singh, a relative of the Thakur, kills Durga’s husband to prevent him or his family from inheriting the estate. When Durjan discovers the Thakur’s plan to transfer the estate to Karan and Arjun, he brutally murders both brothers with the help of his brothers-in-law, Nahar and Shamsher. Devastated, Durga prays to Goddess Kali, who miraculously reincarnates her sons.
