He barely escapes, presumed dead.
Six months later. Kabir sits on a porch, retired again. Zara walks up to him and says: "Train me. Not as a soldier. As a pehredaar." She hands him a new badge. They hug.
Kabir lives in anonymity as a mechanic in a small town. He receives a cryptic letter: "The pehredaar is needed. Your daughter lives."
Kabir breaks into Mahima's high-tech mansion, only to be greeted by Zara pointing a gun at him. She doesn't recognize her father. She is now Mahima's chief security trainee. Episode 2: The Devil's Bargain Mahima offers Kabir a deal: become the family's new pehredaar (head of security) for six months. In return, she will help Zara remember her past. Kabir accepts, but on one condition—no one reveals his real identity.
Kabir's daughter, , whom he thought died in a fire years ago, is alive—and now lives under the protection of Mahima Rajvansh , a ruthless yet vulnerable business tycoon. Mahima's life is under threat from a masked vigilante group called "The Khilafat."
Zara, torn between two families, hacks the mansion's security grid and frees Kabir seconds before the execution. But Rohan holds Mahima at knifepoint. Episode 4: One Last Duty Final confrontation: Kabir fights General Thakur in a burning server room. The general reveals: "Your daughter is my daughter now. She chose me." But Zara, wearing a wire, has recorded everything. She tricks the general, then stabs him with a tranquilizer dart—trained by Mahima, not Kabir.
Zara confronts Kabir. He admits the truth. Zara rejects him violently, saying: "You were a pehredaar to the nation. You failed as a father."
