Pushpadant enters the Shiva temple on being provoked by a few soldiers of the Maharaja. The soldiers steal the swarnamudra after Pushpadant takes away the shivling. Nat Bhairav makes Pushpadant realise that he has committed an offence by stealing the shivling. Pushpadant disagrees with Nat Bhairav. He tries to impress Mahadev by worshipping the shivling, but in vain. The Maharaja becomes furious on learning that someone has stolen the shivling from the temple.
