Durga is not happy to see Nilkantha and insists that Nilkantha must leave. Nilkantha requests Durga to come early in the morning with some food to the Sal forest, where they will be spending the night and wanted to see his son's face in the first rays of the sun. Dawn breaks. Durga comes with her son into the forest. Suddenly a police party attacks the Naxalites. In the crossfire, Nilkantha is hit by a bullet and dies. The Naxalites lie scattered, killed by police bullets. The police party carries Nilkantha's body out of the forest, where silence descends once again.
