Aatreya : (mesmerised) Nivid, that Goddess should definitely become a daughter-in-law of our family and bless us with her divinity.
Nivid : Indeed Your Highness. Let us go and ask her hand for Pince Bali as early as possible.
Aatreya : Bali? Why do you think Bali should get married to her?
Nivid : Why, no? Oh! you don't know. She is the woman that Prince Bali went to see that day inside the temple.
Aatreya is shocked, and at the same time, upset to learn that.
Aatreya : Okay, prepare a considerable amount of gifts and fortunes. We will go to Veerapalli after three days to ask her hand in marriage for Bali.

Bela : Still, you are the eldest. You should get married first. It's tradition.

In Veerapalli, Prabhupada and Mala are preparing to go to Naimisharan to propose to them about Dhani's marriage to Bali.
Mala : What do you think? How will they react to this? Afterall, we are ordinary people and they belong to a Royal Dynasty.
Prabhupada : I don't know. Let's see what happens.
Mala : Let's take Dhani with us too.
Prabhupada : Hmm. And Vani too.
One day later, in Naimi Sharanya.
Aanan : Where is brother Mithun? I haven't seen him since I returned.
Bali : In the woods. He must be polishing his archery skills.
Aanan : Okay, I will go and meet him there.
Aanan rides his horse and leaves for the jungle.
