The conflict escalates when Noori is recalled from prison. In a pivotal encounter, Noori kills Maula’s foster brother, Moodha, fueling Maula’s rage. When Maula finally challenges Noori at the Natt haveli, Noori's father intervenes and knocks Maula unconscious to save his son. Enraged by this "dishonor"—as he wanted a fair fight to the death—Noori kills his own father and makes his sister, Daaro, the clan's queen.
