[mantra chanting]
Nobody in the entire world
dares to go against me, but my son
went against my order.
Meghanada, you disappointed me.
Father, I did it for Lanka.
As Lanka's prince, it was my duty.
I simply fulfilled my duty.
"The duty of a prince."
The duty of a prince
must adhere to some rules.
And the first rule
is that they shouldn't go against
that king's order!
You sent demons
to kill Rama without asking me.
You didn't care to think
that your decision could bring disrepute
to Dashanan's image.
Even a lowly vanara
in Rama's camp would think
that I, Ravana, got scared
as they have come here.
Ravana, whose shout
makes the entire universe shudder!
"He got scared.
This is why he is attacking in ambush."
Meghanada, I have high expectations of you.
This is the reason I'm telling you
that a war is won by terrorising the enemy.
One should never act fearful.
Forgive me, Father.
But wars are also won through tactics.
How can I spare somebody alive,
who declared war against you?
[dramatic music playing]
I know you love me dearly
but, son, I value nothing more
than my self-respect.
That forest dweller Rama
is my prey.
Son,
let a lion like me
play with my prey.
King Lankesh, I need your permission to say something.
Tell me.
Sita is the root cause of this problem.
Yes, Your Majesty. She should be punished first.
Quiet!
[vocalising]
Everyone present
in this gathering shouldn't dare
to advise me
until I ask for it!
Sita isn't a captive
but a guest.
She doesn't deserve a punishment
but gifts.
She will soon receive
the biggest gift of her life.
[dramatic music playing]
My child!
Father!
My child Sita!
[theme song playing]
[theme song continues playing]
My dear!
My child!
[dramatic music playing]
My child.
O, Mahadeva!
Why am I being punished this way?
I should have died before seeing my daughter in such a sorry state!
Why didn't I die?
Father, please don't say that.
You are in a deplorable state.
What about Mother?
My child, she was already distraught after hearing your news.
However, Ravana's attack
destroyed Mithila.
[sweeping music playing]
My dear, Ravana entered
Mithila with his sinful ways.
He invaded our kingdom
and
killed innumerable innocent people.
And now,
Ravana's army
is headed towards Ayodhya to destroy it.
My child, nobody can stop Ravana.
I got the opportunity to meet you
after overcoming innumerable difficulties, my child.
Father,
Ravana's arrogance
and his sins will soon end.
Father,
Shri Rama is headed towards Lanka.
My dear,
you won't believe
what I'm going to tell you.
My child,
this problem can't be solved by a war.
In fact, I'm afraid
that
Rama's life could be at risk
due to his animosity towards Ravana.
No, Father. That won't happen.
Shri Rama will defeat Ravana.
My child, you are under an illusion.
You don't understand
that even if Rama comes to Lanka,
he won't be able to kill Ravana.
Because Ravana
has been given a boon by Lord Brahma.
Lord Yama is his servant.
Do you know,
Ravana's navel hides a pot full of elixir?
If Rama attacks Ravana,
the pot will break,
and the elixir will spread through Ravana's body,
making him immortal.
I thought of every possibility.
My child,
I request you,
as Mithila's king and your father,
to accept reality.
My child, accept Ravana's proposal!
Please accept it!
And
save innocent people
along with your Rama.
My dear, their lives are in danger.
Rama's life is in danger!
My child...
Your time is up. Let's go back to the prison.
My child!
- Father. - My dear!
- Father. - My child!
Father.
[dramatic music playing]
Please mull over my advice.
Rama's life is in danger!
- Hail Shri Rama! - Hail Shri Rama!
[thunder cracking]
[suspenseful music playing]
[dramatic music playing]
[mantra chanting]
Well done.
Marut, I'm impressed with your deception.
[dramatic music playing]
The game, players, and the prey,
all three are ready.
It's going to be fun.
[dramatic music playing]
[thunder rumbling]
First, our destiny tested us
and now it's nature, Rama.
Our difficulties won't end anytime soon.
[thunder rumbling]
Lakshmana, the path of righteousness
is strewn with difficulties.
We'll face innumerable hurdles on the path of duty before victory,
but we must forge ahead
fearlessly.
[thunder cracking]
Hold each other and keep moving forward.
We have a single goal
and we are united.
I'm a part of you
and you all are my part.
[motivational song playing]
[thunder rumbling]
- Hail Shri Rama! - Hail Shri Rama!
[motivational song playing]
[thunder rumbling]
[joyful music playing]
[celebratory music playing]
What are they celebrating about?
[celebratory music playing]
Louder!
It's a festival!
The war ended before it could start.
Lankesh won!
We protect!
- We protect! - We protect!
We won't have to guard Ashoka Vatika any longer!
What are they saying?
"A war?"
"A win!"
You praised your Rama no end.
You got a fitting answer.
We already knew
that the war would end this way.
[chortling]
That's right.
How could a forest dweller defeat Lankesh with the help of vanaras?
Even Kaal couldn't challenge Lankesh.
Then how could a human confront him?
Let's go. She is an unlucky woman.
Let's go and celebrate Lankesh's victory.
[intense music plays]
When you come to know the truth,
you'll stop chanting Rama's name.
[conch-shell playing]
Stop the celebration!
Why are you troubling her?
Go away from here!
Leave!
Trijata, why are they celebrating?
What victory are they talking about?
I have been informed that Lankesh sent an army of deceptive asuras
to kill Shri Rama.
This is why these people...
What?
"An attack?"
Shri Rama!
Trijata, where is my Shri Rama?
Is he all right?
I don't know.
However, this celebration indicates that the victory was a huge one.
There could have been something untoward.
No.
Nothing untoward can happen in my Shri Rama's presence.
My Shri Rama will come.
He'll cross every hurdle and come here.
He'll cross every border.
Trijata, he'll come for me.
I hope
your faith wins.
'The lord of ten lokas,'
'Lanka's king Dashanan'
'is arriving!'
[sinister music plays]
Can you hear the sound of celebration?
Lanka is celebrating
because today,
Lanka's enemy
as well as your hope ended.
I warned you
that your hope would be shattered.
What did you think?
Your Rama could defeat Dashanan
with the help of a few vanaras?
Did you think that a lowly human
could defeat the king of rakshasas, Ravana?
To be honest, your constant praise made me feel
like Rama is a divine being.
However, your hope was baseless!
The entire world witnessed Rama's so-called valour.
[suspenseful music playing]
Why are women so stubborn?
What did you achieve
by your loyalty towards your husband?
I didn't want to bring you this gift.
I didn't want you
to waste your time crying.
But I was helpless
as I gave you my word.
If you weren't so stubborn,
you wouldn't have witnessed this scene.
Sita, you chose this for yourself.
I didn't choose it.
Look.
[intriguing vocalising]
[suspenseful music playing]
[dramatic music playing]
I didn't feel as joyful
beheading Rama
as I imagined.
I didn't commit this sin
but you did.
I fulfilled my promise.
I brought your Rama to you
sans his body.
[dramatic music playing]
[dramatic music intensifies]
