Missed watching at 7.30 pm so had to watch online. Sony, why have you stopped the repeat at 10 pm?! 😕
Baji is stopped from arguing with him by Balaji who leaves quietly. Baji is fuming in anger, he asks Balaji why he kept quiet even though they were in te right. Baji says he has realized for getting anything done in this world one has to be powerful enough.
Baji is learning to throw chakra & has to fell sugarcains tied in 3-4 in one throw which he is not able to to do. Khas is teaching him. Balaji comes & tells them that he & Mandar are going to Aurangabad to ask for help from Bhosale Maratha sardar stationed there. Balaji puts Dhondiba in charge, Mughals chamcha subedar protests saying he is senior but Balaji tells him they need someone who can build confidence of townspeople not someone who kowtows to Mughals. 👏 Khas is put in charge of security & also as Baji's Guru.
Balaji warns Baji only to concentrate on his arms training and not do anything that will put tax collection office in trouble.
Next day Khas is teaching Baji to coordinate mind and body & increase concentration. Baji is made to stand astride burning coals pit & has to hold matka plates in both his hands & on his head. If he shifts even a little the plates will fall. Malhar & his men ride in & he taunts Baji that they cannot do anything. Baji gets upset & matka plate on his head falls down. Khas puts another one on! Later they are throwing punches in barrels filled with water. Must say very innovative teaching techniques. 👏👏
Khas later has Baji do some karate I guess! Baji has to chop wooden board by his hands but is unable to. Khas tells Baji about how Shivaji Maharaj used to plan his battles, how he won wars using Ganimi Kava, what he used to say about how to defeat the enemy. Baji gets motivated & chops the board.
Next day Dhondiba & Baji are in tax collection office, Dhondiba says they need double the amount of tax collected so far to repair the destruction caused by Mughals. Mughal sardar rides in with few soldiers. He taunts Baji saying his father has run away & left him behind. Baji is upset & wants to fight but remembering his father's words he asks Dhondiba's permission. Dhondiba says they should ignore the Mughal since Balaji & Khas both are not there but Baji says he is and for fighting one needs courage which he has. Baji tells Dhondiba they will never earn townspeople's trust if they keep quiet. Malhar & his men walk in just then.
Mughal taunts Baji asking if he will fight him, Baji replies fight is between equals he will just mete out punishment to Mughals 😃 Absolutely wonderful long fight sequence where unarmed Baji fights Mughal sardar using his training and sharp reflexes. Baji gives thrashing to Mughal sardar even though he uses dagger, sword for fighting Baji.
Seeing Baji has defeated Mughal sardar his soldiers start fighting & one is about to attack Baji from behind but Malhar shouts out a warning & Baji wards him off.
Malhar also comes in support to disarm Mughal soldiers. Malhar praises Baji saying he was obviously well trained then why he did not fight him before when he taunted Baji. Baji replies because he is Marathi & he wants to win him over not defeat him. Marathis should not fight each other but should fight Mughals together. Malhar proudly says he is happy he is proved wrtong about Baji & pledges his support always in Baji's fight for Swarajya.
