A fight breaks out and Arun is hurt. However he attacks Dhauli with all his might and throws him off the same bridge from where Dhauli had thrown Bhoomi off. A long procession of women celebrating Navaratri is passing. All the women also throw their dupattas in the water making it impossible for Dhauli to stay afloat. He sinks and Bhoomi is victorious. She says—she and every Indian girl should have the freedom to move around with/without a dupatta because girls must also be given as much independence as the boys.
