Fearing the impending collapse of the Chattar Sal and the Rajput far right, Rustam Khan Deccani led a massive Sowar charge towards the cannon in front of Aurangzeb, in his attempt to flank and attack Murad Baksh from behind. But his efforts were met by ferocious cannon fire by Aurangzeb that eventually caused the death of Rustam Khan Deccani and many of Dara Shikoh's most important Sowars. Meanwhile, it is believed that Murad Baksh killed the Rajput second in command Ram Singh Rautela (Raja Rautela) by shooting an arrow from his composite bow.
