Morning
Rajgadh Palace

A few maids walks in Queen Satrupa's private quarter and bends their heads in respect. She tells them to go ahead.
One maid "Maharani ji, Rajkumaari apne kaksh mein nahi hai.." (Queen, Princess is not in her room)
Queen Satrupa gets shocked "Kya? Rajkumaari apne kaksh mein nahi hai..(in her mind) Kaha ja sakti hai wo phir? Hume Maharaj ko suchit karna ho ga.." (What? Princess is not in her room..Where she can go? I need to inform King..)
She asks the maids to go to their regular duties, while she walks towards King Baldev's private quarter's..

Queen Satrupa sees King Baldev seating in his chair and relaxing, but she looks terrified "Maharaj, Rajkumaari apne kaksh mein nahi hai, aur.." (King, Princess is not in her room , and..)
"Maharani, aap yuhi chintit ho rahi hai. Hamari putri aajayengi.." King Baldev said happily. (Queen, you are taking tension just like that. Our daughter will be back soon..)

Queen Satrupa is still not satisfied "Kintu Maharaj.." (But King..)
Suddenly, they hears horse sound and gets happy.
King Baldev "Dekha Maharani, hamne kaha tha na. Ab toh aap khush hai na?" (See Maharani, I had told you. Now your happy?)
Queen Satrupa is very happy now.

Just then their beautiful daughter Princess Anika walked in the room and greets them "Ma, PitaMaharaj.." (Mom, Dad..)
Queen Satrupa shows a fake anger "Putri, hamne aapse kitni baar kaha hai, ki baaki Rajkumaario ki tarah aap batakar jaiye. Par aap hamari baat sunti hi nahi.." (Daughter, how many times I have told you, to behave like other Princesses and inform beforehand where you are going. But you never listen to me..)
Princess Anika tries to calm her mother "Ma, hum Sanashain ko ghudasavaaree ke liye le gaye the. Aapko toh pata hai na, ki wo hame behat priya hai.." (Mom, I had taken Sunshine for a horse-riding. You know how much I love it..)
Queen Satrupa was about to say something, when King Baldev stops her "Accha, ab koi bahas nahi chahiye hame ispar. Hum ab shikaar par ja rahe hai.." (Okay, now I don't want any arguments on it. I am going for hunting.."
Hearing this Princess Anika gets very happy "PitaMaharaj, hum bhi aapke saath chalenge.." (Dad, I will also go with you..)

"Nahi Putri, aap nahi jayengi.." Queen Satrupa said giving her daughter a stern look. (Daughter, you will not go..)
Princess Anika gets sad "Par Ma.." (But Mom..)
"Maharani, Rajkumaari ko aane dijiye hamare saath.." King Baldev requests his wife. (Queen, let Princess come with me..)
"Maharaj, aap use bigad rahe hai. Hum unke svayanvar ke bare mein soch rahe hai, aur aap hai ki.." Princess Anika flinches a little hearing her mother talk about about her swayamvar. (King, you are spoiling her. I am thinking of her swayamvar and you are just..)
Before King Baldev could reply, they hears a sound from behind. "Maharani ji, aap chintit na ho, hum jayenge Rajkumaari ke saath. Hum unka khayal rakhenge." (Queen, don't worry I will go with Princess. I will also take care of her.)
They turns around and sees Princess Anika's best friend and King Baldev's general's daughter Bhavya assuring Queen Satrupa.

Queen Satrupa gets happy "Agar aap ja rahi hai, toh hame chintit hone ki zaroorat nahi hai.." (If you are going, then I don't need to take tension..)
Princess Anika and Bhavya hugs each other. Queen Satrupa does tilak of King Baldev and Princess Anika. They soon leaves with their troop.

Surajgadh Palace

A few handmaids are decorating Queen Anusuya's hair, while she sits there enjoying it. Just then, King Shivaay walks in and they stops their work and bows before him.
"Ekaant !" Queen Anusuya said and they walks out before bowing their heads, before their King and Queen. Once they leaves, she looks at him in contempt "Maharaj, aaj aap hamare kaksh mein. Koi zaruri suchna..?" (King, you came in my room today. Anything important?)

King Shivaay "Maharani, hum aapko suchit toh nahi karna chahte the, lekin phir humne socha aapko bata hi de. Hum shikaar par ja rahe hai.." (Maharani, I didn't wanted to tell you but then I thought to tell you. I am going for hunting..)
Queen Anusuya smirks "Thik hai Maharaj, hum taiyaaree karva denge, kyunki woh hamara dharam hai." (Okay King, I will make the necessary preparation, as it's my duty.)
King Shivaay nods and walks out from there.
