Lakshmana, I'm a forest dweller,
and I'm banished from my kingdom.
A forest dweller
can't enter a town or a stranger's house.
Entering Lanka is out of the question for me!
Rama, what about Mother Sita,
who has been waiting for you all these days
inside Lanka?
Justice and ethics also allow us
to change the rules
in special circumstances.
Neither this war is ordinary
nor the circumstances.
Rama,
we'll have to enter Lanka at last.
Will your Mother Sita be proud of Rama
if he flouts decorum?
Lakshmana, there is only one rule to a promise.
And that is to fulfil it.
As far as circumstances are concerned,
retracting our statements according to changing circumstances
and breaking our vow
is akin to disrespecting the promise, Lakshmana.
A human being
shouldn't backtrack
from his promise and his principles.
Lakshmana, both Mother Kaikeyi
and I are bound by this vow.
I can't bring
disrespect to her come what may.
Rama, what about the yearning and the pain of separation
experienced by you and Mother Sita?
What about the anguish?
Mother Sita awaits you
and you are waiting for her.
Won't you
do something for her?
Lakshmana, I'm concerned
about Sita more than my life.
I have complete faith that my Sita
is waiting for the Rama
who is here to fulfil the wedding vow
of protecting her and her honour.
Lakshmana, Sita will surely come.
This kingdom's king
disrespected my Sita and abducted her!
This war will finish
only when the king of this kingdom
returns my Sita to me respectfully!
Until then
I'll wait here for her eagerly!
Sita came to Lanka as a captive,
but she'll leave this place as a queen!
[song playing]
[theme song playing]
Shri Rama's commitment to fulfil his vow,
follow decorum and impart justice is commendable.
However, Mahadeva, if Shri Rama doesn't enter Lanka,
how will he free Sita?
How will he return to Ayodhya before Amavasya?
How will he be able to save Bharata's life?
Why is he not ready
to give up his vow during such a difficult moment?
Why is Shri Rama still following decorum?
Goddess, the supreme man
can't flout decorum.
A human being's commitment
towards decorum and duty
and the determination to fulfil them at any cost
makes him equivalent to Narayana.
Shri Rama's commitment
and determination
make him the supreme man.
As it is, Goddess,
the One who took an avatar to establish righteousness and decorum
can't flout the decorum.
If he continues to follow decorum,
how will he and Sita return to Ayodhya by Amavasya?
Goddess, I told you earlier
that neither this war nor its challenges
will be easy.
Circumstances are unfavourable.
These unfavourable circumstances
have posed innumerable questions.
How will Shri Rama
establish righteousness and decorum in this world?
How will Shri Rama
protect Devi Sita?
How will Shri Rama reach Ayodhya on time
to save his brother Bharata's life?
However, I won't answer
these questions.
The human avatar of Shri Hari Vishnu,
the supreme man Shri Rama,
will answer these questions.
[theme song playing]
Hanuman, I can't enter the kingdom of Lanka.
But my trust in Sita crosses all boundaries!
Hanuman, Sita should know
that I'll return to Ayodhya
along with her before Amavasya!
Every breath of mine
is waiting to meet her.
Lord, I'll surely convey your message to Mother.
However, how will I do that?
Who could stop Hanuman, the one who burned down Lanka in the past?
Hanuman, go and burn down this unfair and sinful kingdom.
You must kindle
the fire of justice and devotion.
[mantra chanting]
"Hail valorous Hanuman."
Run! Run!
He is the same person.
- He is back to cause a ruckus. - Run!
Save your lives!
Hanuman is back! Run!
[amusing music playing]
Please don't be scared.
I'm a vanara, not a rakshasa.
You all tied me up in the past.
Please tie me up again.
Won't you set my tail on fire? Come to me.
[amusing music playing]
Please come and set it afire.
He is the one
No. I can't fight with him.
Hey! It's not fair.
When I came last time,
all of you gave me a grand welcome.
Won't you welcome me?
[comical music playing]
What are you waiting for?
Catch my tail.
Come on, set it afire.
Come on.
You go first.
You must go.
- Go on! - You!
It's not good.
[rakshasas grunting]
I'm talking to you as a friend,
but you are charging at me.
[rakshasas straining]
My disciples are here.
Yes, Uncle Hanuman.
[dramatic music playing]
You are really weird.
You were burning my tail when I came here last time.
But this time, you are taking the fire away from me.
Run! Run!
Run!
Now that the 'diya' is lit,
let's begin the programme.
[Hanuman Chalisa playing]
I can't enter Lanka,
but my arrows aren't restricted.
[dramatic music playing]
Lord, may I ask you a question?
I trust you completely.
However, Lanka was burned in the past.
What's the use of burning it down again?
I'm sure there must be a deeper meaning
behind your decision.
You must have a plan.
Vibhishana, I can answer your question,
but the reason behind my decision
could hurt you.
Do you still want to know the reason?
What did you say? He returned!
These monkeys
are crossing the line.
[mantra chanting]
[sweeping music playing]
This fire is not meant to destroy Lanka.
It's meant to make Ravana restless.
When a person becomes restless,
their judgement becomes clouded.
Their power of thinking weakens.
I want Ravana to make the biggest mistake of this war.
I want him to make that mistake as soon as possible.
What mistake, Lord?
I didn't get you.
Kumbhakarna!
You told me
that Ravana has a bigger weapon than Brahmastra.
That is Kumbhakarna and he is sleeping right now.
If he sleeps for two more days
and completes his sleep,
he will be invincible and immortal
as per the boon he received.
Vibhishana, it would be impossible to defeat him.
Vibhishana, we are short of time.
Ravana knows this.
This is why he wants to stall us for two more days
by distracting us.
However, I won't let that happen.
My trick will make Ravana impatient
and compel him to wake up Kumbhakarna.
Vibhishana, I know you are concerned about your brother,
but it's necessary to kill him.
Rama, Lakshmana, and their army
are attacking us from Lanka's gate.
And these vanaras are causing a ruckus inside Lanka.
Our army isn't capable enough to handle a dual attack.
Your Majesty, it's a serious problem.
We must find a solution as soon as possible.
Your Majesty, there's only one solution.
Prince Indrajit.
And he is
busy appeasing Devi Nikumbala.
By what time will he complete the ritual?
He is about to complete the 'puja' of the banyan tree.
'After completing it,'
'the prince will begin the 'puja' of Devi Nikumbala.'
Lord Brahma, I completed the 'puja' of this banyan tree.
Now, I'm ready to invoke
Devi Nikumbala as per Your boon.
Lord Brahma, please bless me
to reap the benefits of Your blessings.
After completing the 'puja' of Devi Nikumbala,
nobody in the world will be able to defeat me.
I'll be invincible
forever!
[intriguing music plays]
"My salutations to the king of trees,"
"whose root is the form of Brahma,"
"the middle part is the form of Lord Vishnu,"
"and the top is the form of Lord Shiva."
- [bells clanging] - [drums beating]
[mantra chanting]
O, Devi Nikumbala!
I, the son of Dashanan Ravana, Indrajit,
invoke You!
I ask You
for the invincible chariot and the powerful weapon!
I want You to bless me
to kill those forest dwellers
with my hands
using Your weapon.
The entire Lanka and my father
have pinned their hopes on me.
However, I place
my trust in Your blessings
and Your boon to make me invincible!
So until
my wish is granted
and I receive the invincible chariot
along with the powerful weapon,
I will continue
to offer You my blood.
I'll continue to venerate You
until the last drop of blood
in my body remains!
"I bow down to Devi Nikumbala."
[explosion]
Your Majesty, Lanka is losing time.
You saw the menace of vanaras.
If we don't take action,
we'll lose everything, Your Majesty.
That won't happen as long as I'm here.
I'll punish these miscreants.
No, Your Majesty.
As long as Father Kumbhakarna, Prince Indrajit,
and I are alive, you need not enter the battlefield.
When will your father wake up?
Your Majesty, two days remain.
If Kumbhakarna is woken up two days earlier,
he won't remain invincible or immortal.
Your Majesty, there is no other option but to call the prince.
Yes, Your Majesty.
We must call Prince Indrajit back.
Only he can
save Lanka from these humans and the army of vanaras.
[dramatic music playing]
Nikumbha, make arrangements to wake up Kumbhakarna!
Please rethink, Your Majesty.
If we wake up Father now,
he'll lose his immortality for the next six months.
What do you think?
Don't I know that?
Nobody knows
about the powers of Kumbhakarna more than me.
He might not complete his sleep,
but my Kumbhakarna is powerful enough
to prove deadly to those monkeys.
Just follow my order
and wake up my Kumbhakarna.
I want to see the end of this war and also Rama's.
As soon as possible.
