Tukoji is sending more soldiers to Manjula's house for her safety, Dhanaji and Gunoji ask what is all this for. He mentions that it is to protect the most important khazana, unke ghar ki izzat. Dhanaji taunts him saying you've started talking like Ahilya, everyone is important.
Dhanaji and Gunoji conclude that the soldiers have definitely been stationed at Manjula's house.
