While Rocky arranges for funds, Guru vows to protect his father's legacy. Shweta eyes Sethi's shares and contacts Kaala to help secure a controlling stake. With everyone vying for control of Teeja Sur, Kaala deploys the final strategy in his plan. Who will come out on top and gain control of Teeja Sur?

While Pratap fights for his life in the ICU, Guru confronts Jai about his father's Will and investigates the attack. While being airlifted, a guilt-ridden Pratap confesses to Kaala that he ordered the hit on Tara, leading Kaala to tamper with Pratap's oxygen supply. Later, Kaala learns that Jazz left for London, but when he finds her in his home, he asks her to marry him. With Pratap in a coma, Sethi threatens to sell to K-Records, leaving Team Teeja Sur with 24 hours to secure INR 200 crores.

As Guru and Kaala meet with investors, Pratap, in his distaste for K-Records, insults Shweta and sides with Sethi. During the IPO launch, a gang infiltrates the party, ready to kill Pratap once Kaala hands over the bullets to them. However, Kaala backs out at the last minute, believing no artist should be killed on stage like his father. Meanwhile, Gurpal realizes Pratap is not responsible for Kaala's father's murder, but fails to reach him on time, as Jagga ambushes Pratap's car and shoots him.

Kaala's stardom has expounded and, although he is greeted with all the shimmer and glimmer, it all feels empty to him. While Prata develops a soft corner for Kaala, Guru grows suspicious of Kaala's motives. Meanwhile, Gurpal's lead on the handwriting match leads him to Gurnampur, where he is met with hostility, as Jazz spirals.

After being let out of prison in Canada for good behaviour, Kaala faces the prospect of being thrown back in jail after beating up the son of the chief police officer. His friend Tidda manages to help him escape Canada and he lands in Punjab, where he learns about his legendary father and how his parents died.

Jazz sees Kaala's rage and pain as he theorizes who may have killed his parents. He poses as a documentarian making a film on the public assassination of Tara Singh while investigating his theories.

When his grandmother tells him to enter the music industry to learn who actually killed his father, Kaala tells Jazz that he has decided to pursue music and is ready to audition for Teeja Sur. However, halfway through the audition he gets emotional at the sight of his father's poster and runs out.

Kaala convinces Dimpy to let him sing in the chorus for his new song and uses the lead singer Mika Singh to help showcase his talent. He goes on to convince the music director to turn his solo song into a duet, inviting Jugal's daughter Lata to sing with him.
