Chittod Ki Rani Padmini Ka Johur (Hindi pronunciation: [tʃɪttɔːɽ kiː raːniː pədmənɪ kaː dʒɔːɦər], transl.

He wins the princess's marriage contest, defeating warrior Padam Singh (which is actually Padmavati in disguise) in a sword fight and asking her to marry him, without the permission of his own parents.

In Chittod, Princess Naagmati, Ratan Singh's first wife and his child, Yashovardhan's mother, opposes this second marriage and Padmini's entry in the royal palace.

She appeals to the Queen of Chittod, her mother-in-law and former rival, to protest against her husband's adultery persuading her to forget their own quarrels and join hands together to "destroy" Padmini.

Parallel to this story is the tale of North India's then ruler Sultan Ala-ud-din Khalji, usurper of his uncle's throne through deceit and murder, who is now intent on conquering Rajputana and its kingdoms (including Chittod).
