But destiny has a different plan to take this enmity to an entirely different dimension, when Kunwar Inderjit Singh, the Prince of Chunargarh and Princess Kishori of Shivgarh fall in love. The path is not as easy as it seems. King Shivdutt of Shivgarh, Princess Kishori’s father is burning in the fire of revenge to get back his love Chandrakanta, as well as the kingdom of Chunargarh itself.

An ace in the art of politics and warfare, Pandit Jagannath, and the warriors Badrinath, Nayantara and Bhavani Singh, form a formidable army.

On the other hand, the King of Chunargarh, Virendra Pratap Singh is also preparing to destroy Shivgarh for the last time. With a team of fearsome warriors, politicians, and mata haris, the ace in his sleeve is Abhimanyu the master spy. The chief of Virendra Singh’s army, Paramvir Singh with Tej Singh and two beautiful magical mata haris, Chapla and Padmini have readied a strategy for war against Shivgarh. The war clouds are rolling in, and there is one man who can change the stakes of the game, a loyalist of Virendra Pratap Singh, Chandilal who revolts and joins Shivdutt. Amidst all this, Kroor Singh of Chunargarh is doing everything possible to make the two kingdoms fight, so he can get the beautiful Princess Chandrakanta.
