In a dramatic turn of events, Baba challenges Vikramaditya to a debate, where he exposes Vikramaditya's own wrongdoings and corruption. The debate ends with Vikramaditya storming out, humiliated.

For a moment, the audience believes he will do the right thing. But the aashram has long since swallowed his soul. He administers the shot, whispering, "Forgive me."
