The subject approach the king with a request to supress this ever increasing disturbance. King Dhiratsinha deputes Jaimalsinha the minister to capture these lawless bandits. Jaimalsinha accordingly starts with a band of sepoys.

Bimlakumari waits to nothing to hate the king's attitude. The king goes to the extreme with a result that Bimlakumari puts an end to her life rather than to submit to the ill wishes of the vicious king.

Jaimal returns with victory. On his return, his faithful servant Raghubirsinha shows him the dead body of Bimla and narrates the full story of this dreadful tragedy. Jaimal's fury knows no bounds and he swears to avenge the death of his wife. He subsequently joins the bandits and plays a havoc in the kingdom.
