Betaal web series ending:

Interestingly, in the final episode of Betaal, it was revealed that once Vikram Sirohi, played by Viineet Kumar Singh, killed an innocent girl on the orders of his senior Tyagi. Throughout the series, the makers built the context as Sirohi used to have some flashbacks. But this time, in order to avoid the same mistake, he asked Saanvi to blast the TNT in the tunnel. He decided to sacrifice his life to save Saanvi.

Meanwhile, Saanvi followed Sirohi's instruction. After she came out, the audience assumed that Betaal, Sirohi, and Colonel Lynedoch and his army died and the villagers are free from the curse of Betaal. But in the final minutes of the series, it is shown that an old ship was found near the city of Mumbai.

Betaal ending explained:

The ending of the series suggested that in the next season, the zombies will not only acquire the village but reach the city to rule India.  Interestingly, in the climax scene, Saanvi narrated a few lines from a book. While narrating a chapter from the book, Saanvi revealed that the temple of Betaal inside the tunnel can not be destroyed as it has Betaal's raw powers. It was also mentioned that if anyone attempts to temper or destroy it, he or she has to face the consequences as the curse will spread outside the tunnel as well. So when Saanvi blasted the TNT, Colonel's Zombie army regained the life and started following Colonol's order to capture and rule India. If different theories are something to go by, then the viewers might see Vikram heading the zombie army in the upcoming season, if made.
