They meet each other 21 years after that incident, certainly through reincarnation and named Karan and Ria. They study in St. Stephen's college, Pune. Individually and in many instances when one comes face to face with the other, they recall their past life incidents. Anushka, another RAW agent and partner of Kabir in a mission that year has also taken a rebirth and is named Anaita. She was involved in their tragic deaths. Anaita, Ria's best friend, studies in the same college. "Operation Tabahi" mastermind ISI Commander Zuber, too, was connected with their past life.

Theme music
Pyaar ke iss khel mein..
dil ki laagi baazi,
yahaan par har chaal mein,
goliyon ki rang bazi,
ek janam padh jaye kaam,
yeh hai aisi Mastaangi..
English:
In this game of love..
heart becomes a bet,
here in every gambit,
fired multiple bullets,
one life is not enough,
it is like that Playfulness..
