PATAN
This isn't our history.
We are from this history.
We are the descendants of the brave warrior queen
who sacrificed her life while protecting Gujarat.
A story that is buried somewhere
in the past begins from the Solanki dynasty,
about 200 years ago.
One of the descendants from this golden era of Bhimdev Solanki
and Siddhraj Jaisingh is King Kumarpal.
He extended Solanki's reign till Sambar in north, Latmandal in south
Saurashtra in west, and Bhilsa in the east.
During the governance of King Kumarpal,
Patan became famous for patola.
Subjects lovingly called him, Supreme Leader.
By the end of his reign, King Kumarpal,
renounced worldly pleasures. He chose the path of non-violence.
Listen, everybody…
residents of Anhilwad Patan, listen to this carefully.
Listen to King Kumarpal Solanki order.
Alcohol and non-vegetarian food are prohibited
in the country of Gurjar.
Gambling is completely banned now.
Hunting animal in the territory of Gurjar
will be termed as treason.
Anybody breaching these laws will be labeled as treason.
Non-violence is the real principle.
May the greatest King Kumarpal Solanki's kingdom remain immortal!
What was the King thinking?
Should we follow our principle as per the king's orders?
Never ever such laws were passed in past 200 years.
This is clearly the King's arbitrariness.
Patan is in shock with the King's order.
But where's Prince Ajaypal Singh?
If the warrior would refuse to fight
who will go to the battle field and fight the enemy?
Will the shopkeepers teach us how to run the kingdom?
Oh, no, are we going to drop the tuber roots from our plates now?
Oh, Lord Shambhu!
Patan is in danger now.
Stop talking this nonsense.
Patan is like the milk.
Add sugar to it and it melts.
Every religion has a place in Patan.
Moreover, Solanki kings were always the believer of Jainism,
they are and they will always be.
Isn't it true that gambling and drinking of alcohol
is also banned now?
What's the matter, King?
These days you forget to carry your sword.
A sword would only divide and not unite, Queen.
Inner peace is in uniting.
Not in dividing.
Don't forget that the kingdom remains united with the fear of sword
that a Rajput is always holding.
Ever since I've accepted a flower…
this sword seems…
heavy to me.
Then it's time to take a decision.
What decision?
The decision of…
change in leadership.
You are free to follow your religion.
But do not let Patan suffer with your decision.
Only a warrior can adorn the throne.
Not anybody who believes in non-violence.
Alright.
Tomorrow morning, I will announce…
Prince Ajaykumar Singh Solanki…
as my successor.
Ajaypal?
He isn't our son, King.
He is our nephew.
You're blinded by the principle and have forgotten
that we've a daughter.
Lilukumari.
She's married in the Kingdom of Vidarbh.
She has a son. Paratapmal.
He's the right successor of Patan.
It's impossible, queen.
Ajaypal Singh has all the rights over Patan's throne.
What about daughter's rights?
Aren't son and daughter's rights same in your principle?
In that case,
even I shouldn't have got the Patan's throne.
My uncle Siddhraj Jayasingh also had a daughter.
Today, she's the mother of the King of Ajmer.
Although he had a daughter
my uncle chose me as Patan's king.
Queen,
the principle never changes with time.
It's stable.
King, think again.
Pratapmal is the right choice for the kingdom of Gurjar.
And not Ajaypal.
If you allow me, I will send the camel overnight.
By tomorrow morning, Lilu Kumari
and Pratapmal will be in Patan.
Nobody will notice at night.
People may or may not notice…
but time notices everything.
And the same time can also countercoup.
Kumar Ajaypal Singh.
What's the matter, Vishwambhar?
What's worrying you?
Your discerning eyes can't miss out on anything.
I've the doubt about dissatisfaction of Mandlik kings.
Malwa's king also seem to be in attacking mood.
We are staying alert.
Don't worry.
Danger is not always from outside.
Sometimes even the internal factors,
give rise to the problems.
Patan's faith has shaken up after King's order.
What's the matter that has shaken Patan's faith
under the leadership of the Chakravarti king?
Patan fears that leadership might not forget to fight
in following the path of non-violence.
Following the path of non-violence,
the warriors might not forget the way to the battlefield.
These are baseless discussions.
It's meaningless.
Every citizen of Patan is free to follow his own religion.
Two swords can never fit in one sheath.
Principle is a flower and not a sword.
More flowers means more prosperity in worship.
Queen Bhopalde?
My respects.
Why are you here at this hour of the night?
Had you sent for me--
I felt it was necessary to…
come to you before it's too dark.
AJAYLPAL SOLANKI
I can't read and write.
But people say that…
Trilochan Shresthi's writing…
is like carving on the stones.
I've also heard that you're writing
Solanki dynasty's history with saffron ink.
Queen,
it's all by the grace of King Kumarpal.
Now, see.
I was writing in laud of King Kumarpal. And…
This chapter is still incomplete.
It will complete by tomorrow morning.
Keep that chapter incomplete.
And start a new chapter…
on the new page.
Kumar Ajaypal Singh.
Ajaypal who?
Not just me…
but everyone should come up with this question in future.
Write in such a way that Ajaypal wouldn't be found in any corner of the history.
These pages need the weight of coins.
Pratapmal should be in the new chapter of Patan.
Queen.
I, Trilochan Shresthi, promise you that
tomorrow's sunrise you'll come up with the auspicious news
of nephew Pratapmal's coronation ceremony.
In the beginning of ninth century,
the glorious King Mulraj Singh Solanki established the Solanki era.
Since then many kings
have adorned Patan's throne.
Whether it is the battle field or service, Solanki's never stepped back.
Their queens have raised their children
teaching them the war techniques.
Such warrior queens were
the pride of Patan's glory.
Today King Kumarpal Solanki has taken a decision
in the interest of Patan,
Now,
he will announce it to his subject.
Today, on this very moment, I, Kumarpal Singh Solanki
with all the knowledge…
I've received from my Guru…
I declare my younger brother,
Mahipal Singh Solanki's prince, Ajay Pal Singh Solanki as…
my successor.
-Agree! -Agree!
Agree!
I, Harshdev Parmar, king of the city of Chandravati,
welcome King Kumarpal's decision
on behalf of all the Samant kings present here.
-Agree! -Agree!
Don't feel offended, king.
But this is not possible.
What are you saying, Trilochan Shresthi?
Do you doubt prince Ajaypal Singh credibility?
Or have you thought of a better successor than him?
Commander-in-chief Vishwambhar.
My respects to your friendship.
But, King.
If I shy away from speaking the truth now
it will bring disaster.
What disaster you're talking about, Trilochan Shresthi?
King, I'm the same Trilochan Shresthi
who has been writing Solanki era's history in golden words.
But I'm capable of writing the events…
that I've witnessed.
Above all of us…
is the creator of this world.
He decides everybody's fate.
As you know, we cannot avert what is in-store for us.
Come to the point.
King,
Prince Ajaypal Singh's horoscope have some flaws.
He cannot take charge of the kingdom as long as he's unmarried.
If he is crowned now
then it will bring disaster.
Patan will face many troubles.
Patan's prosperity will be in danger.
The renowned astrologer present in the court today,
Mr. Sarvadev Pandit knows this fact.
Trilochan.
I know this fact.
And I've already made the king aware of it.
And the solution of this flaw is very simple.
The prince must get married immediately.
And, yes…
orders are given to find the right girl
who can add to the glory of Solnaki Dynasty
and to the fame of Solanki Dynasty.
King,
if you allow me, can I suggest something?
Sure.
King Kumarpal's grandpa, King Karnadev Solanki
was married to princess Minaldevi
who later become the Queen Mother of Patan.
Princess of the same state of Kadumb,
daughter of the greatest King Parmand,
Princess Nayika Devi,
will be the right choice.
That's great.
-Priest. -Yes, King.
Find an auspicious time and
-leave with Harshdev for Kadumb. -Sure.
After three generations
once again Patan and Kadumb will become relatives.
Hail Lord Shiva!
Glory to Lord Mahadev!
-Praise be to Sati! -Mother Sati!
-Praise be to Sati… -Let me go.
-Praise be to Sati! -Help!
-Mother Sati! -Praise be to Sati!
-Mother Sati!
Help!
-Praise be to Sati! -Mother Sati!
-Praise be to Sati! -Help!
-Praise be to Sati! -Mother Sati!
Nayika Devi!
Princess!
What have you done?
I've stopped you from committing a sin.
It's a sin to stop her from sacrificing her life with her husband.
You called her Sati.
And are forcing her for self-immolation?
What tradition is this?
The wife has to sacrifice her life after her husband's death.
This isn't a new tradition.
Fire adds to the glory of a sati.
Don't cover up your wrongdoing by labeling it as a glory.
How will the widow attain salvation
if she won't die with her husband?
If a woman can bring life in this world she can also decide about her salvation.
Many women have become the victim of this wrong tradition.
But not anymore.
Woman who can sustain all the ups and downs of life
even after her husband's death, is a real Sati.
Nobody would prefer to look at the widow.
Widow is the misfortune of Kadumb.
Yes, she's the misfortune.
What's your name?
Renounce all your worldly relations
and forget the name you were known with.
Henceforth, your name is Kalyani.
You will live with me. As my fortune.
I like to visit the streets…
of the kingdom with you.
-Because… our childhood was spent here. -Our childhood was spent here.
Prince, a new chapter will begin in your life now.
I wish this new chapter will bring
prosperity and happiness in your life.
Prince…
where were you lost?
I was thinking about her
whose beauty can mesmerize you even in your dream.
Imagine how she will be when I will see her in person?
It seems you will lose your senses
when she will come before you.
Real love happens at first sight.
When both the lovers forget themselves and becomes one.
Then you will forget your friend too.
Forgetting you is like forgetting Patan.
And it's not possible for Ajaypal.
CHANDEL DYNASTY
Wow!
Amazing!
Praise to you, the warrior girl!
Can this skill stand at sword?
Not the weapon,
but the hands that are holding it have the powers.
By the blessings of Shiva, her speech, intellect,
and personality, all are bright.
That's not all.
She also has the control over many languages.
My dear, he's the royal priest, Sarvdev Pandit.
He has come from Patan.
He's here with the marriage proposal of Patan's prince Ajaypal Singh.
Princess.
I've brought your fortune.
Every daughter of Kadumb is born with her fortune.
We don't need Patan's support to prosper ourselves.
Slowly.
Princess.
Control yourself.
-Dear. -Father.
I will marry only somebody who resembles Shiva.
I don't think there's any such man in Patan.
Nayika Devi.
You're insulting Patan's potential with this rejection.
Priest.
This is my vow. If you find it as Patan insult
-then it's your misunderstanding. -Enough.
Now, even God won't be able to save you from Patan's wrath.
Insult.
It was our insult.
From Arbuda to Vidhyachal.
And from Bhuj to Malwa no princely state can dare insult Patan.
But an egoistic princess dared to do so.
-Insult. -That…
King, I had heard of princess's bravery
and her love for her motherland.
I had no idea that she will insult Patan to this extent.
King, there's only one punishment for our insult.
Attack Kadumb.
I'll fast until Kadumb's princess Nayika Devi
becomes Patan's queen.
Now, the only revenge is war.
Calm down, priest.
War is not the solution to every problem.
King, I agree your principles
are stopping you from war.
But Patan will not tolerate this insult and keep quiet.
The queen is right.
Patan's fury will crush her ego.
Will Prince Ajaypal not be declared as King of Patan
because of an ignorant girl's rejection?
How can a mother like me tolerate this?
I feel like going to the battlefield right away
and give a befitting reply to this Nayika Devi.
Calm down, Queen Mother.
As long as Ajaypal is alive, you or the Patan
need not worry about anything.
What do you mean?
Will you go alone on the war?
No, Shresthi.
Not all wars are won with the fights.
There's no bigger weapon than love.
What does that mean?
I, Prince Ajaypal Singh, in witness of…
all the courtiers and Patan take a vow,
that I will return to Patan…
only after…
Nayika Devi is with me.
I've won many states in life.
Now, let me try winning a princess's heart.
CHANDEL DYNASTY
Queen,
why do you look worried?
King…
we received a marriage proposal from Patan.
But your daughter…
rejected it.
She has invited trouble.
Kadumb will face the deadly outcome.
The entire kingdom will be destroyed.
Don't talk negative, Queen.
You can stop me, King.
But how will you stop Solanki's swords?
This…
this silence of yours…
will take a heavy toll of your subjects.
You're equally responsible for the humiliation
that Patan's royal priest had faced here.
Kanchandevi, I tried for a moment.
But we never know what destiny has in store for us.
If you had stopped her since childhood
we wouldn't have faced this day today.
She's so crazy for Shiva?
I could never understand your confusion.
King.
She doesn't know this world and the society.
She opposed the tradition of Sati.
She brought a widow in the palace.
She distributed the offerings to the children
before the worship.
Are you complaining about her or praising her?
I am her mother, King.
I'm proud of her.
But I am also worried that
which in-laws will accept her with this kind of thinking?
Talk to her, King.
Please, talk to her.
Shiva wont come down from Himalayas.
And these things suit in the sermon.
If she has asked for him, then she will get a Shiva.
Every…
to catch every Ganga
there's one Shiva on the earth.
Our Ganga will also be caught.
She's also very stubborn, King.
I've warned her several times to not go to the temple in the ruins for worship.
But she still goes there.
You must be aware.
That just yesterday, one of it's wall had collapsed.
Her life is in danger.
How can we be in danger when we are with Shiva?
Since childhood, I've been worshipping in this temple.
And I will continue to do so.
Princess.
Om
We worship the three-eyed-one
Spiritually fragrant Who nourishes our core
Free us from the bondages Worldy desires
Cycles of birth and death
Like the melon detaching itself From the branches
Om
We worship the three-eyed-one
Spiritually fragrant Who nourishes our core
Free us from the bondages Worldy desires
Cycles of birth and death
Like the melon detaching itself From the branches
Devi.
Who were these attackers?
I am sure they had come from Patan.
-Patan? -Yes.
Ever since I've rejected Patan's marriage proposal,
my life is in danger.
I'm sure this was Patan's conspiracy.
Impossible.
It's not in Patan's nature to backstab like this.
You know a lot about Patan.
Patan's fame is known to all in India.
How can anybody be ignorant about it?
Is it so?
I've known one thing that you're not a sage.
Tell me the truth,
who are you?
The one…
whom you rejected…
without even meeting.
Kumar Ajaypal Singh?
That's how our eyes met
And we fell in love
We lost our peace of mind
That's how our eyes met
We've reached Patan, Princess.
Now, we must stop calling her a princess.
Queen, take a look at your fort.
That's how our eyes met
Welcome, Queen.
-Praise be to King Jaypal! -Praise be!
Daughter-in-law Nayika Devi pays respect to…
Royal priest Sarvdev Pandit.
Give me an opportunity to serve you, respected priest.
Your parents are great.
That land is great where Rajput woman like you are born.
Modesty and manners.
Are the biggest ornaments of a Rajput woman.
May you always be successful!
Even this plan of yours has foiled, Trilochan.
He killed your soldiers, married her and brought her here.
He has himself created his path towards the throne.
Even I'm sad about this.
You shouldn't be sad. You should be ashamed.
He's a step ahead of us.
May I come in, Queen?
Newly wedded bride Nayika Devi has sent this gift for you.
My mother has sent this gift especially for you.
This Paithani sari represents the prosperity of Maratha culture.
Forgive me, if I've committed…
any mistake.
But please don't insult my mother's gift.
Insult?
What do you think?
The princess of a small state like Kadumb…
will insult the Solanki's?
And then apologize and rule over us?
Remember,
it's not a puppet show…
to be the queen of the bravest kingdom of Patan.
Puppet?
Don't feel offended, Queen.
But I've zero knowledge about the puppet show.
Because I've always played with sword since my childhood.
And Kadumb is the same state where King Kumarpal's
grandpa Karnadev Solanki was married to.
Queen Minaldevi was also the Princess of Kadumb.
Later, she became the Queen Mother of Patan.
Devi, this the Patan.
It has witnessed the warrior kings of Solanki dynasty.
It is said that Solanki Rajput's appeared from the fire.
That's why they were called Agnivanshi.
The greatest warrior named Mulraj Singh Solanki
was born in the ninth century.
He established the Solanki era.
And took charge of the Anhilwar Patan.
After him, his son Chamundrai Solanki
annexed the borders of the kingdom.
Amazing.
You know the whole story.
This isn't any story but the history, Prince.
One must have the knowledge of the history of the land where she's married to.
You're a fire.
Untouchable, pure and fiery.
That's why I got married into a Agnivanshi family.
This Patan is my pride, Devi.
Take care of my pride.
Your pride is…
now, my self-respect.
Brave warrior is conferred Upon the responsibilities now
Being the King Sword is his biggest ornament now
Blessings shower From all the directions
Blessings shower
From all the directions
May you always triumph
In presence of all the courtiers,
I, Kumarpal Singh Solanki announce
Prince Ajaypal Singh Solanki,
as my successor…
and…
confer upon him the power…
of Agnivanshi Solanki dynasty.
May you always triumph
God has given me the best opportunity
to serve the greatly successful Solanki era.
And I am indebted to the nature for this opportunity.
I'm not the ruler but the servant of Patan.
With my king Kumarpal Singh's blessings.
And of all of you, my elders,
I'm setting a new tradition in Patan's court.
The way Shakti is incomplete without Shiva.
Even Shiva is incomplete without Shakti.
Henceforth,
queen Nayika Devi will also be
a part of our court of ministers…
and benefit the Gurjar state…
with her intellects.
Queen Nayika Devi,
accept your position in Patan's court.
-May Solanki rule… -Always triumph!
-Hail Queen Nayika Devi! -Praise be!
-May Solanki rule… -Always triumph!
-Hail Queen Nayika Devi! -Praise be!
Your passionate kiss
And your touch is soothing to the heart
You're my world
My roof
Your passionate kiss
And your touch is soothing to the heart
You're my world
My roof
Your eyes appear sharp
But voice is very sweet
Eyes met…
As they say, it's difficult to digest happiness.
And that too, of the enemies, it's impossible.
Kingdom of Kashi,
located in the eastern region of India
had an evil eye on Patan.
KASHI
Accept royal dancer Sahastrakala's respect.
How are you, Sahastrakala?
I'm surprised that…
Kashi's Queen Ruthi has sent for me.
Special people are sent for special jobs.
It seems the job is really special.
What do you expect from this dancer?
Kashi's king wants to announce his second wife's son as his successor.
I know.
I also know that…
you want your son to be his successor.
But how can I help you in this?
Paras told me that…
you have some story…
linked with Patan.
My roots are linked with Patan.
And there are many stories.
Story of leaving those roots and reaching to Kashi.
Story of your insult.
Don't you want to take revenge?
Sahashtrakala,
you want Patan and I want Kashi.
Only one person can fulfill both of our wishes.
Ghori.
Shahabuddin Mohammad Ghori?
He has advanced from Poonch
and launched an attack on Multan.
Invite him to attack on Kashi.
Tell him to win Kashi and hand it over to me.
Anyways,
life will be meaningless…
if my son is not declared the next successor.
He's a Ghori.
A vampire, you know.
We can enjoy the heat of the fire.
But we can't…
play with the fire.
Moreover Mohammad Ghori
is not so kind hearted
to give away Kashi to the prince.
Sahashtrakala.
Tell Ghori that…
I will get him the glorious kingdom of Patan in favor of Kashi.
Ghori defeated Gaznavi, who looted Somnath and is now in India.
Gaznavi couldn't reach Patan.
You have to guide Ghori towards Patan.
Tell him that if Somnath is so prosperous
then imagine the prosperity
of it's governing body Patan.
I hope this isn't our last meeting.
Are you sure,
she will do this task successfully?
Paras.
If she will do this task successfully
my son will become the king of Kashi.
And if she fails,
then we've no dearth of dancers in Kashi.
MULTAN
Have mercy on me.
Forgive me for my mistake, His Highness.
May you gain respect everywhere!
But I've experienced severe backache all of a sudden.
That's why please forgive me.
Gulfan has always served Ghoris his whole life.
Now, God has given me a chance to return to his favors.
Can't I do that much?
Aren't Ghoris kind hearted?
That Gulfam has to serve
us even in his old age?
Almighty will never forgive us.
Never.
If we won't give him the final see off.
Sultan, have mercy on me.
Have mercy on me.
Now, his backache is fine.
Serve him gracefully.
-He's dear to my heart. -Have mercy on me, Sultan.
Have mercy on me, Sultan.
Sultan!
Sultan, you grabbed my palace.
You have taken the custody of my subjects.
You've killed my family.
My only child is my four-year-old innocent son.
Where's my son, Sultan?
Now, you own the entire Multan.
I don't want anything else.
I've nothing left to give you, Sultan.
I've nothing to give you. Spare my son.
It's a little late now.
Your sons blood was delicious.
No, Sultan. No.
No, Sultan.
No…
Butcher.
No…
No, have mercy on me.
Have mercy on me.
Have mercy on me, Sultan…
Sultan!
No!
This girl doesn't seem to be from Multan.
Yes, our soldiers found her on the way from Kalul.
Include her in our ladies camp.
She's a little sharp.
Difficult to understand.
Bring her to me.
Maybe I can understand her.
Sure, His Highness.
Here she is.
Where were you going, girl?
I wanted to come to you.
So I challenged your soldiers.
She's really very sharp.
Tie her in my tent.
Sure, His Highness.
Greetings, Trilochan Shresthi.
Welcome, Malva's king Vijjaldev.
How can I avoid your order Trilochan Shresthi?
Order?
You have to order me.
I'm just an ordinary minister of Patan.
And you're the king.
However, you're just the king for the Patan's family.
I'm really sorry for that.
It's suffocating to live like this.
That's why I've thought of your freedom.
Ajaypal will be free on one end
and you will also be free on the other end.
What's the guarantee that change in leadership
will change my fortune as well?
Sorry to say, Trilochna Shresthi,
I don't intend to insult you but…
I give you the guarantee.
After Pratapmal's coronation ceremony,
Malwa will be an independent state.
Amazing.
Yesterday evening Ghori went to the river Satlaj to drink water.
The moment he bent down to drink water
he saw a big lion drinking water.
Lion looked at Ghori.
Ghori looked at the lion.
Lion jumped towards Ghori.
But Ghori gave a tight punch to lion in the air.
-Wow! -Wow!
-Great!
Listen to this, His Highness.
There was a lion in front of Ghori.
And a tiger on his right side.
A dangerous tiger.
The moment tiger took a leap towards Ghori,
Ghori took a high jump.
Held the tiger's tail and revolved him in the air
twice and threw it onto the tree.
-Wow! -Great!
-Wow! -During this incidence,
the leopard was about to
hold Ghori's right hand in his jaw.
But Ghori held its jaw from both his hands.
And tear it apart.
-Wow! -Great!
-Wow!
Thank you.
Did you hear this?
They are just…
buttering you up.
You find this nonsense.
But in future when history will be read…
maybe the people would…
praise me like this.
If you happen to be lie,
I will chop you like a hen.
I'm a hen. That's why I came to awaken you.
Enough of sleeping, His Highness.
It seems, you haven't heard of me.
From Hindkush to Multan,
nobody could defeat him.
But there's one state in India.
Forget about defeating it,
it was impossible to enter
in that state even for Mohammad Gazanavi.
He could reach Somanth.
But he had to return from there only.
What do you want from me?
I know that,
Ghori is fierce and aggressive than Gazanavi.
Win over Patan.
If Somnath is the crown of India,
then Patan is it's heart.
You do it, that Gazanavi couldn't.
Ruling Patan is like ruling the entire India.
What's your interest in this?
I was very young,
around five years old.
My mother was a dancer in Patan.
One day Queen Bhopalde's convoy was passing from the city.
Citizens were gathered to have a look at it.
I was also a part of that crowd.
I was excited to take a glimpse of the queen.
The moment her convoy entered in the city,
Maids, royal courtiers, guards…
I was so happy watching all that.
The moment…
I saw the Queen in the palanquin.
I was stunned watching her embellishment.
Impressed with all that I also said…
I wish to be a queen one day.
The queen heard that…
and looked at me angrily…
and then to her maid.
The maid came to me.
And slapped me in the presence of everybody.
People were laughing at me.
For the first time in my life I felt insulted.
For such a small thing,
my mom and I were banished from the state.
That's it.
That was the day, I had decided that…
I will rule Patan one day.
Ghori will win Patan.
But how will you become the queen?
I know that once you win a state
you give it's charge to your slave and move ahead.
Make me your slave.
To make you my slave,
I've to follow one custom.
Now, I must go to Patan.
You will come to Patan only to adorn the throne.
Don't underestimate Patan's power, His Highness.
To win Patan, you need to shake it pillars.
Patan!
You're disrespecting Ghori!
I'm saving you…
from any mockery in future.
Go.
Go to Patan and wait for me.
King,
what are you looking at me in my eyes?
The moment I had…
seen you for the first time.
It feels everything has come to a standstill.
Time hasn't passed.
We are still there.
At the same Shiva temple.
The same moment…
where we felt each other's touch.
Don't you think,
we are living a dream,
and not a reality?
No dream is bigger than life.
That's right.
It's a reality and that's why it's beautiful.
If there's truth in beauty you'll automatically see Lord.
I'm not comfortable in this necklace, Queen.
King, warriors ornaments are not just the adornments.
Sometimes, they act as their shield and weapon.
We are being awaited.
I am going with the kids.
Come soon.

Friend!
It's not the time to cry, commander-in-chief.
Enemy's dead body is lying around.
Arrange to dump those.
Make sure that the subjects should know
about King's death but not about his assassination.
Before Patan loses its self-confidence
it should get its new king.
Before king's last rites,
Mulraj's coronation ceremony should be accomplished.
Call the royal priest Sarvadev Pandit.
Gather all the knowledgeable in the royal court.
Trilochan has backstabbed us.
Before he steps out of Patan,
he should be punished for this conspiracy.
Now, Patan will not wait for anybody.
Queen!
Cry a little.
If I start crying, who will console my Patan?
Greetings, Your Highness!
Time is the best healer.
At present Patan needs its leader.
A new king.
But one must be married to be the king of Patan.
Maybe you've forgotten.
Our greatest King Karnadev Solanki
when martyred in the battlefield.
Queen Meenladevi had crowned
her three-year-old son Siddhraj Jaisingh.
Patan will repeat that history today.
In witness of Goddess Bhawani
and our family-God Somnath, in witness of all of you
I, Nayika Devi,
wife of the warrior King Ajaypal Solanki,
announce Prince Mulraj Singh Solanki as the new king of Patan.
-Praise be to Prince Mulraj Singh Solanki! -Praise be!
May Goddess Bhawani protect all of us!
Hail Lord Shiva!
-Hail Lord Shiva! -Hail Lord Shiva!
Queen Mother,
I've seen many queens in the history of Patan.
But I must appreciate.
The patience and wisdom you've shown…
it's difficult to see such an example anywhere else.
You're great, Queen.
You've buried your pain and taken a decision best suited to a queen.
Before the subjects mourn their king's death
you've given them a new king,
and a new hope.
It will help Patan stand up again.
May you live long, Queen!
King Ajayapal Singh always ignored your behavior and your conspiracies.
He never stopped loving you.
He knew that you don't like him.
Still, he respected you as much as he respected king Kumarpal.
You should thank me that I am not locking you up
under the accusation of treason.
Your palanquin is ready at the gate.
Leave for King Kumarpal's ashram right now.
Proceed.
Even this year, the famine has affected our crop.
We failed to pay the taxes.
So our cattle and plough were seized.
Call the regional officer of his area.
We've waived off taxes for two years due to famine in the entire Patan.
How can you disobey my orders?
Arrest him.
-Glory to Queen Mother Nayika Devi! -Praise be!
Glory to Queen mother Nayika Devi!
-Return these villagers… -Praise be!
their cattle and the ploughs.
And arrange to send the grains to them on immediate bases.
-Glory to Queen Mother Nayika Devi! -Praise be!
Remember one thing.
Royal throne demands service and not the rights.
When the king considers this throne as his power
he doesn't need any enemy for his own destruction.
If a king isn't dedicated to his state,
his power becomes his biggest enemy.
-True! -True!
Greetings.
I've never seen you in Patan before this.
I'm a traveler.
This horse is really beautiful.
Unmatched.
My co-traveler has gifted me.
Undoubtedly, he must be impressed with your beauty and gifted it to you.
No.
He was impressed by my intellect.
But I can't control this horse's swiftness.
Commander Vishwambhar.
If you're a traveler, how did you recognize me?
I'm not just a traveler.
But a historian as well.
Before choosing the path,
I find out all the details of that place.
I was supposed to take a halt in Mewar.
But my horse was tired.
So, I thought if I can meet a brave man in Patan
who will take care of my horse.
Then I will gift him this horse.
Don't know about the king.
But I met the commander-in-chief.
So, my hopes are high.
Why do you think that I will believe your story?
Will you not?
It's okay.
But you can definitely sit with me and share the grief of losing a friend.
You will feel light-hearted.
As I told you.
I am just not a traveler.
I get every detail of my travel path.
Since you've travelled a lot,
you must know many interesting stories.
Yes, of course.
Kashi's Queen Ruthi.
Her story is quite interesting.
Queen married the king.
But the king slept with his queen's maid on his wedding night.
The queen got angry and asked for a separate palace.
That's why the palace is called Queen Ruthi's palace.
Yes.
Even I know this story.
I also know the stories…
which are unknown to you.
Like?
If I will tell you everything now,
it'd be difficult to travel ahead.
-Greetings, your Highness. -Greetings.
Who owns this beautiful horse?
Commander Vishwambhar has brought it.
Queen mother. She's Sahastrakala.
She's a historian.
How many regions have you travelled so far?
-Kashi, Vijaynagar… -Any special motive behind visiting Patan?
Queen Mother,
my horse chose the path to Patan.
And I wish to gift…
that horse to the commander-in-chief.
I've already narrated the rest of the story to him.
It seems you liked the gift, commander Vishwambhar.
Yes, Queen Mother.
Let me know…
the specialty of that horse.
It has got wings, Queen Mother.
It runs with the wind.
It doesn't allow anybody to ride him except the warriors.
Alright.
-Commander Vishwambhar. -Yes.
Escort Sahashtrakala to the borders of Patan with due respect.
It's summertime.
She might not get lost in the desert region.
Don't feel offended, Queen Mother.
But Goddess Bhawani is the family Goddess from my father's side.
If you allow me, tonight,
I wish to dance and pay respect to Goddess Bhawani.
Now, I must go to Patan.
You will come to Patan only to get crowned.
Don't underestimate the leadership of Patan.
If you want to win Patan…
then you must shake it's pillars.
Patan!
You're disrespecting Ghori!
I'm saving you…
from any mockery in future.
No woman has left my tent without sharing a bed with me.
Only after I've won Patan
I will share a bed with you.
This chopped finger will remind you now.
That you belong to Ghori.
Go.
Wait for me in Patan.
If you allow me, can I hold your hand?
You can share your pain with me.
You will feel light hearted.
Some co-traveler gifts.
And some takes it away.
Is it very painful?
Not now.
Oh mother of the universe
Listen to our request
Take away our sorrows
Of many lives
Oh mother of the universe
Listen to our request
Oh mother of the universe
Oh Goddess Ambe come to my door
Come as the queen of Patan
Let your anklets chime
Leave your footprints behind Come Goddess
Come and settle in my heart
Palaces are lit with the lamps
Colors are spread everywhere
With your arrival This heart will dance in joy
Palaces are lit with the lamps
Colors are spread everywhere
With your arrival This heart will dance in joy
Come for my help every time I face any trouble
Clear any confusion in our mind
The night is high
Oh Goddess Ambe Come to my door
Come as the Queen of Patan
Let your anklets chime
Leave your footprints behind Come Goddess
Come and settle in my heart
Come as the Queen of Patan
Come as the queen of Patan
Come as the Queen of Patan
Does Patan treat it's guest like this?
Guest?
-Kalyani! -Yes.
Take away these ornaments.
I don't need them anymore.
King, what are you doing? Hey…
Give it back.
-King, return it to me. -Kalyani.
Queen Mother.
This isn't a horse but death.
It's a conspiracy.
I didn't get it, Queen Mother.
This is a dancing horse.
A beautiful conspiracy sent by the enemies.
Riding this horse, when a king goes to fight,
the enemy's troupe would play bells instead of the swords.
With the sound of the bells, this horse would lift it's back feet and dance.
And the king…
would fall down even before fighting.
You mean Sahashtrakala…
She hasn't come here to dance…
but to kill us.
Shahabuddin Ghori has already left from Multan.
I had come to Patan to create conflicts in your administration.
I wanted…
Patan to end by its internal conflicts even before the war.
Patan is unconquered and it will always be.
Patan can fight even the hard rocks and irons.
Whereas you're just a pawn.
Should I laugh on your foolishness or have mercy?
Leave Patan with your horse before tomorrow's sunrise.
Queen Mother.
I've disobeyed your order.
I accept any punishment you give me.
But now, till my last breath…
my only loyalty is with Patan.
And it will always be.
May Goddess protect Patan.
Sahastrakal has been killed.
Alright but…
is Ghori going to attack Patan?
He has left for Patan.
May Sahastrakala's soul rest in peace!
My respects, Queen Mother.
There's a message form Ghori for your soldiers.
Send him in.
One, we will fall in love during the war
is my dearest Nayika…
-Don't you dare! -Don't you dare!
Utter a single more word and I will slit your tongue.
Raikaran!
His words will sharpen our swords.
The lamp lights brighter before it's about to put out.
Respect his last words.
Listen to him.
To my dearest Nayika Devi.
My greetings.
Maybe in coming days…
we will meet.
Before the war…
I am giving you a last chance.
It is against Ghori's nature.
But I am helpless.
You're a…
woman.
Ghori has never encountered a woman
anywhere else except the bed.
You still have time.
Wear these bangles that I've sent.
Because a woman manages the house.
Not the sultanate.
My dagger is enough to win Patan.
The two dead rats are your princes.
They will meet the same outcome.
Save Patan from the ruin.
Wear this dress.
And be a part of my caravan as my wife…
Enough.
This isn't Ghori.
But his death is talking.
He has not only insulted me…
but every woman of this world.
This is the Anhilwad Patan's Queen Mother Nayika Devi.
I swear in witness of Lord Somnath.
I will not step on the Land of Patan,
unless my sword wouldn't behead Ghori.
Hail Lord Shambhu!
Ghori will pass from Punchh's fort along with his soldiers
and have camped here at Arbuda.
What's his plan to march towards Patan?
At present he has camped to store the ration.
That will be useful to him for his journey further.
They will take four to six days to encamp from there.
Ghori's camp is in Arbuda.
Before he marches towards Patan we will stop him in Arbuda.
This is not right in terms with our principle, Queen Mother.
As per the geological studies there's a solar eclipse after four days.
According to the principle you will do the worship.
You can't travel.
And the war is already prohibited…
If I will fear of this eclipse and take no action
Ghori will create havoc in Patan.
I don't want…
Ghori to even step in Patan.
I am sorry to say this, Queen Mother.
But to defend Ghori's our soldiers…
your maternal family's soldiers and tribal soldiers
together will also be less.
Ghori will take few more days to reach Patan.
That much time will be enough for us to prepare.
Foreign attacker always defeated us
because we always waited for them to attack first.
This time we will attack.
Before they unsheathe their swords, we would have made our first attack.
Hail Lord Shiva!
Why these woman are never perfect in doing their job?
She has sent only salt.
What if she had sent some spices and meat?
We'd have had a feast.
She doesn't understand the difference
between fighting war and making pickle.
Some Rajput woman should explain Nayika Devi.
That I live in the salty region.
You were right, His Highness.
Women should stay in the kitchen.
Nayika Devi has sent this salt for my grave.
Let's go friends
Adorn the battlefield With your blood today

It's the question Of our motherland's pride

-Praise be to Naiyka Devi! -Praise be!
It's heard that Ghori had fought with his own brother and left.
Correct yourself. He was thrown out of the kingdom.
Then he attacked the Gazanavi's.
And defeated them.
-Gazanavi? -Yes.
-The one who looted Somnath? -Yes.
You mean Ghori is fierce than Gazanavi?
I've heard that he's none less than a vampire.
One day a man saw his death before him.
Death told him.
Don't get scared.
I will see you tomorrow.
Tomorrow, your death is final.
That man thought…
that I will ride my horse and go far away
so that my death can never reach me.
So, he rode his horse.
And ran his horse.
And went on and on.
He stopped at an isolated and deserted place.
Looked behind there was nobody.
There was a tree.
He slept under that tree.
But when he opened his eyes.
He saw…
that death was right before him.
Even death said…
I was surprised what you were doing there
whereas you were destined to die here.
Almighty has decided this place for Nayika Devi's death.
And gave me the responsibility
to do this task.
I've to give such a dreadful death to Solanki's…
that anybody would shiver with the sight of it.
After Patan's battle…
everybody would bend on his knees…
and salute to Ghoris.
-By God's will. -By God's will.
I will bury Solanki's in Arbuda.
And loot Patan.
-By God's will. -By God's will.
Shamsher.
Nayika Devi is waiting for me at the battlefield of Arbuda.
With a few soldiers, you will take another route from Kathi
and attack them from behind.
And I will face her directly on the battle field.
But remember.
I want Nayika Devi alive.
Such pride?!
Queen Mother,
Ghori is coming in two groups.
He is on the route from Arbuda with his soldiers.
And second group in leadership of Shasher
is heading through the valley.
You go towards the valley with your soldiers and local tribal army.
I will wait for Ghori at the battlefield of Arbuda.
When Mohammad Gazanavi had attacked Somnath,
King Bhimdev from the Solanki dynasty was on the seat.
When the king got the news of Somnath's loot
war strategy was made in just one night.
Solnaki's army was waiting for Gazanavi in Kuchh's Kathot fort.
Gazanavi changed his route the moment he got the news.
If Gazanavi and Solanki had a war,
the history would be different today.
But Somnath was looted and India already had that stigma.
Time awaits result and not the hard work.
Lord Somnath has given this golden chance to the warriors.
It's our chance to erase the stigma on the Solanki dynasty's administration.
Hey, Rajput's!
Hey, Warriors!
Hey, children of Patan's.
After Gazanavi, now Shahabuddin Ghori is marching towards us.
The revenge will be over only after
the affusion of our motherland with Ghori's blood.
Remember.
Single soldier of Patan can bravely fight thousands of soldiers of Ghori.
Because Ghori has come here for his ambition.
Whereas we've come here to protect our motherland.
So, get your weapons ready.
And mark a line of control.
Anybody trying to barge in our land should be burn to ashes.
Hail Lord Shiva!
We've to stop them…
at the same speed that they are marching towards us.
Even before this sand subsides back on the ground.
Attack!
Hail Lord Shiva!
Let's go friends
Adorn the battlefield With your blood today

True man…
respects woman's honor.
Never dishonors her.
You could neither respect your manliness.
Nor a woman's honor.
Kill me.
End my life.
Killing you would be…
a matter of shame for my sword.
Go.
I pardon you life.
With a curse.
That neither you will live…
nor your linage.
Like an impotent, spend your entire life cursing yourself, Ghori.
That you were defeated by a woman.
Hoist the flag of victory
Let's go friends
May the brave warriors Remain immortal in the history
Let's go friends
Calm down your vigor friends
Finally we've won the war friends
We've won the war
After this battle, Ghori returned to Persia,
in shock
that he didn't come out of his tent for 13 years.
After 13 years he attacked Mewar.
But didn't even eye at Patan.
His humiliating defeat on the land of Patan
still salutes
the courage and bravery of Nayika Devi.
