Another attempt at ghosts and reincarnation. The Court singer's foster grandson, Baiji Kamala's son (Shankar) arrives one day at the court and is exactly a replica of the prince (Rudra). Ali knows he is the illegitimate son of the King. Despite being aware of the facts, both become fast friends, and Rudra takes it upon himself to protect Shankar. Queen Padmavati (Dipti) tries to poison Shankar, killing the King Pratap instead. Shankar grows up to be a stereotype, drunkard, and pleasure-loving, and Shankar is the moderator. In childhood, Dewan's daughter Ranjita betrothed Rudra, preferred Shankar and finally married him. Rudra can't bear it and is out to kill Shankar. Will he succeed? If he does then?
