Once there was a king 11 April 2022: Rani agrees to marry Jeewan but only on a condition that he stay there. She will hold Jeewan’s hand only if he hands it to Jeewan, and takes a promise. He keeps his hand over her, Rani laughs that he promised but won’t be able to fulfil it; he loves her a lot and can’t see her marry someone else. This is her faith on her love, Mr. Rajveer Singh.Rani comes to Jeewan who was playing dart to show her the fake letter Raja read. She asks why he lied with Raja, Jeewan tries to explain that was Raja…. He apologizes her.
Rani says he must be ashamed, they have considered her life a game and they have won this game as well, she told Raja she was ready to marry him (Jeewan). Jeewan cheerfully moves towards her but she stops him, she says she only agreed to marry him only to show Raja won’t be able to see her marry someone else. This is a game between her and Raja, Jeewan must not interfere in this game. Jeewan stops her saying it must be a game for Raja, but for him Rani is his life. He loves her dearly, and will surely marry her now. Rani was tensed, Jeewan throws the arrow without looking at hits its aim perfectly.
On the table, Kaal throws the plate away angrily, as Rani is only a maid and doesn’t worth being more than this. Raja asks what if Bari Rani Maa had thought the same for him, Rani was born in poor family but has a gold heart. She realizes the worth of relations and will never let this family disperse. Kaal questions Raja why he himself doesn’t marry her. Raja qualifies she isn’t good for him, Jeewan loves Rani. In royal families, sons are only considered to be worthy, they must sometimes be considered humans as well. Bindu agrees Jeewan loves Rani a lot. Kaal wasn’t ready for this marriage at any cost, and leave the table.
Raja announces this marriage will take place, if he agrees they will take his blessings but if he disagrees it will take place without his blessings. Raja curses Bari Rani Maa’s brought up in front of her regarding Raja.Raaj Mata was happy about Rani’s decision, if she has taken this decision in pressure it won’t prove fruitful then. Bari Rani Maa tells Raja his decision is wrong, he wanted to revenge Rani then why he wants her to marry Jeewan who loves her. Raja apologizes for not being able to share the reasons with her now. She hugs Raja. Raaj Mata wasn’t ready to let her marry Jeewan if she loves Raja.
Rani says she wants to make Raja realize his love, and was sure he will stop this marriage. Raaj Mata assures being with Rani.At night, Raja stood in the window crying, as she thought about Rani’s demands. He considers the decision to be difficult, but right one. He will do it and get her married to Jeewan, then this story will end and Raja and Rani’s names won’t be taken together. Rani was sure that her Baba used to say until a story ends well, it’s not the end. Raaj Mata was asleep, there was a knock at the door. Rani was shocked watching Bari Rani Maa there. Bari Rani Maa wasn’t ready to enter the home where there was a planning to break her house, she hasn’t left Raja’s side even after playing badly with his life.
And now she wants to worry her younger grandson. Rani tells Bari Rani Maa to speak in lower voice, her Dadu is asleep. Raaj Mata wakes up then, and walks outside, while Rani argues with Bari Rani Maa not to say a word for her grandmother. Bari Rani Maa shows a ring to Rani, and demands her to take it off. Rani abides by, Bari Rani Maa asks Rani if she wants money; this ring costs as much as Rani won’t be able to earn in her seven lives. She must take this ring and leave their lives, and throws it over Rani. She turns to leave, before Raaj Mata comes behind Rani. She asks Rani who came here, Rani hugs Raaj Mata crying. Rani goes inside, but Raaj Mata finds the ring on floor and gets flashes about Bari Rani Maa.
She was worried to save Rani. In the room, Rani cried why Raja has been doing this to her.The next morning, Amrita was ready to leave, Raja asks her to confirm if everything is fine. Amrita was upset that this proposal isn’t appropriate. Jeewan joins them happily. They were about to leave when Kaal comes to confrontation, he forbids Amrita take this Shagun, she is his wife and can’t negate him. Amrita says while dying Rajeshwari handed Jeewan’s responsibility to Amrita; she won’t leave his side today. Kaal warns them that they all, especially Rani will have to pay huge cost for this all.
Raaj Mata shows her disagreement to Rani’s decision, but Rani says Raja will only realize her love if she goes away. They come out to the hall where Raja and Jeewan were waiting, Amrita had her back to Raaj Mata. She turns around and was shocked to see Raaj Mata, the fights between Kaal and Rana ji and Gayatri flash in her mind, Shagun thaal fell on the floor. However Raaj Mata hadn’t recognized her. Amrita was fearful and asks Raaj Mata if they have met already. Raaj Mata was sure to remember if they had, and Raja and Jeewan never told her about their parents. Amrita wonders if Raaj Mata doesn’t know that Raja and Jeewan are Kaal’s sons, but this will disclose one day; would it be fine to proceed with this proposal.
Raja hurries them to complete the rituals, Rani stops Raaj Mata and Amrita saying she is aware it’s their right, will they accept her request. She wants Raja, her best friend to do this ritual; who has sworn to get her married will have to do the rituals as well. Raja comes with a smile for Raaj Mata, and drapes Rani with the Chunri. Jeewan smirks. Raja and Rani can’t take their eyes off each other. Raaj Mata comes to Jeewan and make him sit besides Rani. Hot tea glass fell off Raja’s hand. Rani brings the sweets plate to him, wipes her tears before offering him one for sweetening his mouth.
But she still trust his love completely. Jeewan suggests about getting a date from Pandit ji, Raja announces he already got a date. Tomorrow is a good date, and it shouldn’t be delayed. Rani disagrees, Jeewan asks why. Rani says she has some wishes taking her wedding, a few dreams might be left alone but she wants her wedding to take place with all rituals. Raja agrees, that after one week Rani and Jeewan will get married with complete rituals. Rani vows that in next seven days, she will remind him daily how much he loves her, she will only marry him. Raja takes a leave from Raaj Mata. Rani returns Bari Rani Maa’s ring to Amrita, Amrita was afraid if Bari Rani Maa is aware who Rani is and takes the ring back.
Amrita returns the ring to Bari Rani Maa. Bari Rani Maa wonders if she is really cunning, and want the kitchen keys; how dare she returned the ring. She turns to twist Amrita’s arm questioning how she went without Kaal and Bari Rani Maa’s consent. Amrita asks what is wrong with this marriage. Bari Rani Maa says marriages are made among families, she has kept the respect of royal family to date. Amrita thinks this means Bari Rani Maa hasn’t yet figured out who Rani is.
In the room, Raja thinks about the ritual with Rani. Amrita was in panic, she hands the jewelry box to Jeewan and tells him to take Rani and Raaj Mata away from Amirkot. She requests Jeewan, who understands and promises to leave once he is married to Rani.
Amrita forbids him tell Raja, but Raja stood behind questioning why is she doing this. Amrita says Raja won’t be able to bear Jeewan’s sindoor in Rani’s head partition. Raja inquires if he would be able to live without watching her daily, he wants to separate Rani from himself but not send her away. Jeewan who stood on the door, wipes his tears.Jeewan walks to a framed photo of Rani, crying. He says Raja can’t take care of Rani, she is only safe with him. He shouts in rage that Rani only belongs to Jeewan.
The next morning, Amrita performs Jeewan’s haldi. Rani is brought to the hall. Raja and Rani look at each other from behind the net curtains, Rani is seated. Raja comes to take the Haldi bowl off Bindu’s hand, Bindu forbids him put himself into pain. He won’t be able to bear any more pain, but he doesn’t listen and move forwards towards Rani. Rani was tossing her stroller’s beads, the string breaks the beads are dispersed on the floor; this makes Raja lose his balance. He fell on the floor, Haldi bowl ruined. Raaj Mata calls it a bad omen, Rani smiles victoriously towards Raja.
Raja comes to put the turmeric over Rani’s face, weeping. Rani says her tears fell off his eyes, this color of turmeric would go really soon but her soul has been colored in his color; how he will remove that. They walk opposite ways. Jeewan comes to confront Rani, and wipes the turmeric off her face, roughly. Rani inquires what he has been doing, Jeewan wants to color her in his own color, to remove any other color. Rani warns him that there is still time. Jeewan says Raja is just mocking his cheap friendship to be love, but only he (Jeewan) loves Rani. Rani says she is well aware, Raja is calling his friendship as love, and Jeewan is considering friendship as love.
There, Jeewan tells Bindu that they can’t get their loves till Raja and Rani continue loving each other.Rani wash her face, thinking his color of love doesn’t go away no matter what.There, Raja walks towards the forest and cries in rage. Rani stood in the balcony when she steps up a stone to hurt her foot. Raja comes with the turmeric in the bowl and puts it over her face, arms and feet. She opens her eyes to find herself daydreaming. She stands to look around, there was turmeric over her body but can see Raja walking away towards the forest. She calls his name at which he stop stepping ahead. Rani runs downstairs, in the way her stroller get fire but she leaves it there to follow Raja. She cries as Raja had walked ahead. He was crying badly.
Jeewanand Bindu watch this from some distance, a car comes to hit Raja.The next morning, Raja was doing push-ups, his head had been bandaged. Bindu sits beside him, saying he was hurt deeply. The path he is walking has a single house and that is of Jeewan and Rani. Raja walks away to hold another tool, Bindu tells him that she realize how difficult this wedding is for him, it’s a heavy burden that he won’t be able to carry. She recalls Jeewan telling her to be Raja’s support, the next time he fell down. She pours him juice and holds his arm, offering him to share his pain with her. She is his friend, he must let her be one. He must let her help him, and even if he wants to marry Rani she is with him.
She recalls, she asked Jeewan why she would say so; Jeewan told her that Raja won’t trust her the other way and they need to win his trust first. Only that is the way, they can find out his next planning. Raja hugs Bindu and cries that he loves her very much. Bindu thinks to herself that she loves Raja, and will make him realize this. Jeewan watched this curtly.Raja was dancing with his friends in the wedding. Amrita was upset and thinks that her son is in trouble, and she is really helpless. Raja comes to her and tell her to prepare for the mehndi ritual, he will get Rani.
Raaj Mata tells Rani her parents were married in the same time she is going to be. She gifts her a necklace that her father had gifted her mother and was an only jewel left. Raja comes to Rani questioning if she isn’t ready, Jeewan must be arriving soon. There, Bindu tries to convince Jeewan to understand, Raja isn’t ready to stay away from Rani and may change his intentions anytime. Rani asks Raja to make her up into a bride of someone else, and hands the jewelry in his hands. He heads to put on jewelry over her. Rani says there are some relations other than friendship as well, they have to be understood too. Raja says its better to let go of a few emotions. There, Bindu was worried that Raja won’t leave Rani alone, even on the stage.
Jeewan is mistaken, and they both will have to bear the punishment. He put on her mother’s necklace around her neck, Rani recalls Raaj Mata’s words that if at such a time, a man puts on necklace around a girl’s neck they get completely married as no other ritual is required. Bindu and Jeewan come to see in the mirror how Rani bends to touch Raja’s feet, he holds her up to kiss her forehead.Jeewan comes to drag Raja downstairs into an isolated room. He tells Raaj he understands what he is doing, for Raja this wedding must be a joke but for him it’s his life.
Raja has always thought ways to hurt him since childhood, and is attacking him again. Raja doesn’t understand. Jeewan cries that in childhood he got Rani, and will get her this time as well. He understands the drama Raja is creating, the hero will soon change to Raja. Raja denies, Jeewan calls it impossible. He asks Raja to leave this place, else Rani will only be hurt. Raja will leave Amirkot forever, right away. Raja agrees, while Bindu was shocked standing behind. He turns to leave, Jeewan shows him the way of outdoor. Raja asks Jeewan to meet Rani for one last time, but Jeewan stops him there. It’s not always important to say a good bye, as it creates a hope or returning.
In the room, Rani asks Meenu about Raja. Meenu asks why Rani is thinking about Sir, while she will marry Jeewan tomorrow. Rani says she is really upset, there is surely something wrong.
