Ten years later, Roop and Dev are interviewed about their experience by Aditya, a journalist documenting the partition. While boarding a train, Zafar is stabbed in his stomach four times with a dagger by Abdul, as Roop and Dev escape. Zafar confesses to Roop that he eventually fell in love with her, despite his early intention. As Abdul's political stance gains leverage, riots against Hindus and Sikhs in the city take place, during which the Chaudhrys decide to flee to Amritsar with the help of Zafar, but not before Saroj, the benevolent maid is brutally stabbed to death. Heartbroken, Roop consummates her marriage with Dev but insists that she would never be able to love him. Bahaar, who disagrees with Zafar's approach, warns Roop and tells her about Zafar's real intentions. When Balraj becomes aware of Roop and Zafar's affair, he confronts Bahaar and Zafar. As part of another effort to humiliate Balraj, Zafar instigates communal hatred in his friend, Abdul Khan, by demanding for the partition of India on religious lines, which Balraj and Dev do not support. Satya dies after urging Dev to give Roop a chance and to forgive Balraj for his affair. She also begins to develop a friendship with Dev, much to Satya's happiness and sadness.
Roop misconstrues Zafar's intentions and falls in love with him. Zafar wants to exact revenge on his parents, Bahaar Begum and Balraj Chaudhry (who abandoned Zafar after ending his extramarital affair with Bahaar) by seducing Roop, as she is married to Balraj's legitimate son, Dev.
Roop expresses interest in writing about the condition of the locality in which the brothel is located, during which she meets with a womanizing blacksmith named Zafar. She also begins working in her husband's publishing house, to use her education to her advantage. A depressed Roop takes solace in music, which she begins by learning from the madam of a brothel, Bahaar Begum. Once married, Dev tells Roop that he still loves Satya and that their relationship will only be cordial and platonic. Roop keeps rejecting Satya's proposal but later gets convinced by her father, Dharampal, and agrees on the condition that she will marry Dev to which Satya agrees. She goes back to her native village in the Rajputana area and requests her childhood acquaintance, Roop, to provide companionship to her husband, Dev Chaudhry who runs a liberal newspaper. Satya Chaudhry is told by her doctor that she has cancer and will die soon.
