Stay alert. Go to the left.
Hey, Lord Shri Rama!
I apologise.
[arrows swishing]
- Run! - Run!
[sinister music plays]
They have both strength and intelligence.
[chortling]
But poor things
are going to be sad when they learn
the truth of their Lord Shri Rama.
The story of Siyaram
is a painful love story.
[sinister music plays]
A love story.
It's a pity.
King Janaka, I'm gratified.
I got the opportunity
to smear the dust from the place
where Mother Bhumija was born on my forehead.
Your Majesty, I, Hanuman, feel rewarded.
[mellow music playing]
I should thank you.
You consoled my distressed Sita
at a time
when everyone felt
hopeless.
From a mere devotee,
you became her son.
Your Majesty,
it's due to the Lord's divine play.
His devotion turned a mere monkey valorous
and Mother's love
made me a son.
I learned
that the Ashvamedha Yajna will soon be organised in Ayodhya.
It's the right decision for the expansion of the kingdom.
Your Majesty, my goal
is to spread righteousness and decorum instead of the kingdom.
Decorum is required in every sphere and at every step of life.
Whether making sacrifices or indulging in sensual pleasures,
a human being must always follow decorum.
It's the foundation of a balanced life.
The world must embrace
righteousness and principles to ensure a joyous future.
Until righteousness and decorum gain momentum in this world,
evil thinking will increase.
Human beings empower the rakshasas.
Ashvamedha Yajna
will help Ayodhya spread righteousness
and decorum throughout the entire world.
It will help end evil thinking.
Hail the king.
Yes, Kushadhvaja.
Soldier.
Your Majesty, four boys
were roaming around the kingdom disguised as disciples.
Actually, they were thieves.
They were trying to escape after stealing your quiver.
We recovered your quiver.
And the soldiers will soon catch them.
Kushadhvaja, what have you done?
[dramatic music playing]
Those boys aren't thieves.
They are valorous.
And this quiver
was gifted to them by me.
[tense music plays]
[joyful music playing]
I'm waiting for those brave boys.
But you...
[joyful music playing]
Please go with your soldiers,
find those boys
and bring them to me respectfully.
As you command, Your Majesty.
[mellow music playing]
Your Majesty,
did you really gift those boys your celestial quiver?
They must be extremely talented.
[song playing]
[bell clanging]
[theme song playing]
[comical music playing]
Somkaran. Somkaran!
- Yes. - Please eat these
until we win the competition.
After that, the subjects will treat
the winners to 'chappan bhog', not just sweets.
Shh! Kush.
Look at those soldiers. Please stay quiet.
They must be discussing about us.
Find those children
and take them to the king.
[suspenseful music playing]
Luv, didn't I warn you
against cleaning the quiver?
Nobody would have recognised it if it was dirty.
What should we do now?
[amusing music playing]
It seems the entire army is after us.
We would have met Shri Rama by now.
We cannot return without participating in the competition,
nor without writing
the introduction letter to Mother Sita and Shri Rama.
[melancholic music playing]
- Woodcutter! - Woodcutter!
Do you remember we met in the forest?
Yes, I remember.
Your ox and your ox-drawn cart
are serving the ashram.
Thank God! I'm grateful.
This means my donation was successful.
Yes.
Please forgive me but I overheard your conversation.
Please change your appearance
to dodge the soldiers
and participate in the competition.
That's a good idea.
But how should we change our appearance?
We don't have deceptive powers.
Oh, yes.
Look! They are right there. Catch them!
Run!
[dramatic music playing]
"Luv and Kush!"
Such beautiful names.
These boys seem to be a talented duo.
Your soldiers failed to catch them.
Rama, they aren't just talented.
Their faces exuded divinity.
Their divinity
won me over.
[happy music playing]
They aren't ordinary disciples.
They are an interesting combination
of a saint and a ruler.
An ordinary mother
can't impart such good principles to her children.
Additionally,
they were raised without a father.
That makes this job even more difficult.
Do you know what they said
when I asked them about their father?
They answered,
"Our mother acts like our father."
[happy music playing]
I hope
to have such a grandson
during my rule.
[song playing]
Could it be that their mother...
[melancholic music playing]
It's such a big event
and we have to welcome a plethora of attendees.
On top of that, these disciples!
Spread throughout the kingdom.
We must catch them
and summon them before the king at once.
Do you understand?
Look! There they are!
Catch them!
[dramatic music playing]
[clanking]
[clinking]
[amusing music playing]
No, Hanuman.
I met their mother Vandevi.
However,
Sunayana feels
I failed to recognise those boys.
If she meets them, she will immediately recognise them
as Sita's children.
This event has been organised
for the same reason.
Our mind is strange.
On one hand,
I don't want to hear anything related to Sita.
On the other hand,
I feel disheartened if I don't get her update.
Your Majesty,
please don't disturb Sita and my penance.
Your Majesty,
please don't snatch the virtue I have attained over the years
by staying away from Sita.
[melancholic music playing]
Lord,
I want to say something out of turn.
It's high time
you married a second time.
King Janaka and Queen Sunayana
will honour the new bride
and love her like their daughter.
Nobody will criticise you.
Guru, I came here to invite everyone to the Ashvamedha Yajna.
The Ashvamedha Yajna is presided over by a couple.
[suspenseful music playing]
You will see my wife
when you visit Ayodhya.
[theme music playing]
[amusing music playing]
[horses neighing]
Kush, we have to participate in the competition,
but you're talking to the horse!
No. I'm seeking permission.
What permission?
I will ride it
and enter the competition.
[amusing music playing]
Who is it? Who is there?
Are you stealing my horse?
- No. - No.
We weren't stealing.
- We have their permission. - Whose permission?
I never granted you permission.
That's right. Who granted you permission?
This horse.
As it is,
I have to ride the horse,
so I should take its permission.
Why would it grant permission? I will grant permission.
- Then please grant permission. - Oh!
Do you think permission is like a horse's fodder?
Will I grant it just because you asked?
I have no other option, you see.
[smirking]
I have enough fodder.
- I didn't mean that. - Stop it.
You are seeking permission after trying to steal my horse!
Shameless thieves!
We didn't steal it. We have their permission.
You may ask your horse.
I sought its permission
and it nodded in agreement.
I will teach you a lesson.
Somveer, bring a stick.
There's a thief here!
Thief! Soldiers, catch the thief!
Catch him! Thief! Thief!
[dramatic music playing]
Thief! Thief! Thief!
Thief!
The Ashvamedha Yajna offerings are given as a couple.
This means you're ready for a second marriage.
Well done, Shri Rama! Bravo!
[dramatic music playing]
You decided to marry a second time
to preside over the 'yajna' as a couple
and to appease the world with your karma.
I don't want to dishonour you.
I came here just to inform everyone
that the arrangements for the competition are complete.
We can start the competition from tomorrow onwards.
[intense music plays]
[gloomy music playing]
Shri Rama, please forgive me.
You know
that younger brothers
can't control their emotions.
I hope you won't take
this insult to heart.
No, Your Majesty.
I could sense
the pain for his niece in his eyes
rather than an insult to me.
I empathise with him, Your Majesty.
I'm overwhelmed
to see
that he dotes on Sita.
[theme music playing]
He didn't insult me, Your Majesty.
He simply expressed his pain.
Shri Rama, you're great.
You're truly great.
You have arrived in Mithila after years.
Please give us a chance to serve you.
I have a request.
Please leave after watching
the archery competition.
The participants will be encouraged
to see a great archer
like Shri Rama in front of them.
Sure, Your Majesty.
I'd like to see those brave children,
whom you gifted your celestial quiver.
[joyful music playing]
[happy music playing]
Thank you.
[dramatic music playing]
[sweeping music playing]
What have you done? Those flowers were meant for the garland.
You have strewn them everywhere.
[suspenseful music playing]
Please forgive us, Devi.
You will get punished instead.
- Are you getting married? - No.
- 'Varmala?' - I had to make it.
- For whom? - For myself!
Why are you making a 'varmala'
if you aren't getting married?
'Thief! Thief! Thief!'
[suspenseful music playing]
Are you a thief?
[dramatic music playing]
Are you a thief?
Do we look like thieves?
Looks can be deceptive!
Just as the 'varmala' is yours,
even though you aren't a bride.
Please let us go.
We have to complete a task.
We have come to Mithila to accomplish that task.
These soldiers have a misconception.
Please let go of us.
I have a condition.
We accept all your conditions.
Please let go.
My 'varmala'...
I promise you
that I will bring a 'varmala' and a groom
for you by evening. Please let go.
- Listen... - Please have mercy, Devi.
We are Shri Rama's devotees.
We fulfil our promise, even at the cost of our lives!
They are the thieves. Catch them!
Soldiers, catch them. They ran away.
They are strange boys
but are Rama's devotees.
So, that's your problem.
You fear that Luv and Kush's abilities
will make them insolent and careless.
Yes, sage.
When a person becomes powerful,
there are high chances for them to falter.
Luv and Kush
have to rule a kingdom righteously.
[conch shell playing]
Vandevi, please trust your sons.
They have been taught by Lord Valmiki.
As for their insolence
is concerned,
it's due to their age.
It will gradually transform into seriousness.
Before becoming disciplined and starting a family,
it's important for human beings
to be jestful and rebellious.
If a person learns to be jestful,
it helps them maintain a healthy mind even during difficult times.
I'm confident
that your sons will become capable
when it's time to rule Ayodhya.
[ethereal music playing]
Sage,
will Lord Valmiki
take Luv and Kush to Ayodhya?
If he intended to take Luv and Kush there
and unite Rama's family,
why would he let you suffer in exile for years?
[melancholic vocalising]
This means
it's not just about meeting Shri Rama.
In fact, we are waiting for the entire Ayodhya
to have a change of heart.
[intriguing music plays]
Please trust Lord Valmiki and his teachings.
He won't send Luv and Kush to Ayodhya
without first imparting enough knowledge to them.
At present, the right way to attain knowledge
is through Luv and Kush's Mithila Tour.
