Plot

[edit]

Princess Chandrakanta Jai Singh is born to Ratnaprabha, a great magician who has the most powerful dagger of Lord Vishnu. Iravati Singh, an evil queen, wants the dagger to rule the world and conquers Vijaygarh. Ratnaprabha hides the dagger at a temple to protect it so that it could be passed on to Chandrakanta after 21 years.

21 years later

Iravati still searches for the dagger. Her stepson Veer plans to conquer Suryagarh kingdom. Chandrakanta, raised by a poor couple gets the dagger but doesn't know its powers. He reaches Suryagarh, and wants revenge from Chandrakanta. However, they get romantically close and fall in love. But, Iravati succeeds in separating them. Veer unexpectedly stabs the dagger in Chandrakanta. Besides him, Iravati and her allies also brutally stab Chandrakanta, who falls off the cliff.

Chandrakanta returns as Suryakanta. Veer has forgot their past and is a ruthless warrior under Iravati, who now owns the magical dagger. Veer eventually regains his memory and opposes Iravati. He fights her son Swayam, the beast but is unable to kill him, and finds out that Swayam is immortal blessed by Lord Vishnu. Iravati tries to find Chandrakanta. Veer receives new power of Narsimha, a powerful avatar of Lord Vishnu. Taking the form of great Narsimha, he kills Swayam and puts an end to terror of Hirnasur.

Iravati escapes and later returns. Chandrakanta gives birth to a daughter blessed to kill Iravati, who attacks Veer. She dies when Chandrakanta's daughter touches her. The daughter is named Suryakanta. In the end, Chandrakanta and Veer establish peace and prosperity in Vijaygarh.
