Planning for Relief from the Siege
Even with the onset of monsoon, Siddi Johar's siege of Panhala did not loosen. As soon as he heard that Netaji Palkar, Siddi Hilal and Wahwah Hilal were coming to Panhala, Siddi sent his force. Wahwah was wounded, Siddi Hilal was captured and Netaji was defeated. Mahadev reached the fort dressed as a sanyasa and informed him about where the siege was loose and planning began.
