Baalveer 3 is an Indian Hindi-language Fantasy television series that aired from 18 March 2023 to 9 September 2023 on Sony SAB, and is digitally available on Sony LIV.[1] Produced by Vipul D. Shah under their banner Optimystix Entertainment, and stars Dev Joshi and Aditi Sanwal as leads, alongside Ada Khan in a negative role..[2][3] It is the third instalment to the Baalveer franchise and is a spiritual sequel to Baalveer and Baalveer Returns.[4]
The story revolves around Baalveer, who is preparing for his mother, Adishi's arrival in Udaka Lok after her two months' journey. He goes to Earth to buy a gift for her and saves a girl named Kaashvi from an accident. In Udaka-Lok, Baalveer passes a test set by Uttan, the ruler of Shaashvan-Lok, and is declared worthy. However, Aageel plans to kill Baalveer using her Mahajadoo.
Kaashvi’s mother is revealed to be Tuyeer, a trusted ally of Aageel. When Aageel attacks Kaashvi, her Mahajadoo is absorbed inside her (as she is the offspring of two different species). Aageel captures Kaashvi and takes her to Himbaash to extract her Mahajadoo, but she is eventually saved by her parents who then safely sends her to Earth. In a series of events, Baalveer is charged guilty for Babel and Tuyeer’s death and thereby is stripped off his memories and powers until the investigation to the matter is completed. Until then, he is sent to Earth via Bardol, a secret agent of Shaashvaan Lok, to lead a new life.
Bardol entrusts Bhaskar Bhardwaj, a magician, to take care of Baalveer until the matter is sorted. Thus, Baalveer begins to live a new life as “Veer Bhardwaj”, befriends Kaashvi, after certain bickerings, and furthermore vows to bring an end to the financial problems of his new family.
Veer's memories and powers temporarily return unknowingly via Kaashvi’s help, and under the guidance of "Benaam", Veer regains his superhero identity and soughts to find clues to prove his innocence to Uttan, but in vain. Meanwhile, Shashmaag releases the soul of a devilish witch named “Kurja” and transmits her into Adishi’s body with the objective of escaping from Uttan’s suspicion and to kill Baalveer. Meanwhile, Aageel’s futile attempts of killing Baalveer by manipulating Kaashvi triggers the negative traits of the latter frequently. Simultaneously, Veer and Kaashvi’s bond continues to develop.
Adishi (controlled by Kurja) meets Baalveer and commands him to surrender, to which he refuses. In a set of dramatic twists, she is apparently killed and the blame of the same is put on Baalveer by Shashmaag to instigate Uttan. Although Benaam catches hold of Kurja’s soul, Shashmaag kills the latter in the nick of time.
An angered Uttan soughts to destroy “B”, the power source of Baalveer to put an end to his life. However, Baalveer manages to overpower him and preserves “B” safely with himself. In a set of thrilling twists and turns, Baalveer ultimately finds out about Shashmaag’s duality and finally proves his innocence to Mahamahim, who then remorsefully captures and kills Shashmaag with the help of his twin brother, Nehmaag. As the devil would want, however, Shashmaag had cunningly exchanged his guise with Nehmaag before the trial, thereby saving himself without anyone’s knowing.
Meanwhile, Aageel poses as “Agni”, a righteous protector who then instigates Kaashvi against Baalveer and provokes her into believing that the latter is responsible for her parents’ death. Thus, Kaashvi vows revenge by killing off Baalveer with the help of her newly found powers. She is devastated and hurt to know that Veer is Baalveer, and consequently attacks him in a rough battle at the solar eclipse (when her powers are at par). However, both of them effectively solve the misunderstandings and a regretful Kaashvi eventually reconciles with Veer, only to realise that the Mahajadoo inside her is steadily weakening her survival like a poison.
With the help of Benaam and Kaashvi, Baalveer subsequently manages to extract Mahajadoo from the former’s body, thus making her safe. While ShashMaag joins hands with Aageel to seek revenge, Baalveer eventually finds out that Benaam is his real biological mother, and on being tricked by Aageel, he soughts to free his father, Bhasma, from Krinkaal Lok. He successfully frees his father after overcoming various problems. But, Bhasma, starts destroying the world which angers Uttan. Baalveer promises to return, after realising his mistakes, with greater powers, to save the world.
