Rama and Sita's pair resembles
Lord Narayan and Goddess Lakshmi.

00:00:59,920 --> 00:01:01,360
They look like the Sun and its rays.

All Hail Lord Ramachandra.

My Rama.

00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,560
Today is a very auspicious day.

22
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,800
Four forms of Goddess Lakshmi
are adorning Ayodhya.

23
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,200
Queen Kaushalya, please
welcome our daughters-in-law

24
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,120
so that you can proceed to
conducting the other rituals.

00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:26,480
Rama.

My Rama.

00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,600
You have welcomed us in
such a grand way, Mother.

31
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,040
You have given a
touch of your grandeur

32
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:01,800
to all of Ayodhya.

33
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:05,520
But all my attempts

34
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:08,360
have been unsuccessful.

35
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:15,680
Ayodhya's beauty is

36
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:18,680
not even a fragment of

37
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,120
my beautiful and
dear Sita's beauty.

00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:27,560
[sinister music playing]

39
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,040
Dear Sita.

40
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:33,440
Perfect and complete Sita

41
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:36,560
for my accomplished Rama.

42
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,200
May no one's

43
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:43,920
evil-eye befall you.

47
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:14,680
Mother.

48

Bharata.

50
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:33,920
My dear Bharata.

[flute playing]

52
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:45,560
You are not my daughter-in-law.

53
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:48,840
You are my daughter, Mandavi.

54
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,600
Our daughters don't
touch the feet of others.

55
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:54,440
They embrace their mothers.

56
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:57,480
I would never find

57
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,120
a beautiful daughter-in-law like you

58
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,520
for my Bharata, even if
I searched with a lamp.

59
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,040
[mellow music playing]

60
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:10,840
Mandavi.

61
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:20,440
I remembered you a lot, Mother.

62
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,000
I wish that you had
been present there.

63
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,440
'When our son Bharata gets married, '

64
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,400
'his mother will be
present at the wedding.'

65
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:33,120
I am aware.

66
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,400
You must have missed
your Mother's presence.

67
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:38,160
Yes.

68
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,080
But Sita was present

69
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,160
as a mother
to fill your absence.

70
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,600
To protect Father's word.

71
00:07:58,440 --> 00:07:59,480
And, Mother,

72
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,160
I got married along with Rama,

73
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,120
at the same time that
Rama was married

74
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,360
and under the same canopy
that he got married in.

75
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,280
What could be more
auspicious than this, for me?

76
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:15,480
[flute playing]

77
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:17,160
Go.

[mellow music playing]

79
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:30,920
Did you see that?

80
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,200
Neither did your husband give
importance to your presence,

81
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,160
nor did your son

82
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,480
feel the need for your presence.

83
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:42,600
Innocent Kaikeyi has been deceived

84
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,680
under the name of motherly love.

85
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,440
Please proceed, Queen.

86
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,360
Please enjoy
the 'Grihapravesha'

87
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,880
of your new daughter-in-law. Go on.

[melancholic music playing]

89
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,360
A daughter-in-law is an
embodiment of Goddess Mahalakshmi.

90
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,160
Pour the rice grains out of the urn

91
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,280
and bring happiness and prosperity
into your life, dear child.

The 'Grihapravesha'
has now been completed.

Beginning from this day,
you are of this house,

99
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:53,400
and this house is yours.
Always and forever.

100
00:10:58,680 --> 00:11:01,480
Mother, we are hungry after
completing a long journey.

101
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:05,720
I knew that you would first
ask for something to eat.

102
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:09,120
Come with me.

[mellow music playing]

106
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,960
Shatrughna, this is
the wedding feast.

107
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:35,040
As per tradition, you must eat
it without bending your arm.

108
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,000
Without bending my arm?

109
00:11:39,560 --> 00:11:41,880
How will I be able to eat
without bending my arm, Mother?

110
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:43,600
That is where the tactic lies.

111
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,240
Okay, Mother.
I will attempt to do it.

112
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,360

114

Shatrughna,

115
00:12:01,680 --> 00:12:04,680
are you attempting to eat the meal
or offering it to your dear God?

116
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,720
Watch how this
sweetmeat enters my mouth.

117
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:12,760
[laughing]

118
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:19,680
Do not mock me.

119
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,400
Please tell me how this
has to be accomplished.

120
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,080
[clearing throat]

121
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:25,240
The thing is,

122
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,240
I am aware of how to proceed.

123
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,080
But how can I have my meal

124
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,440
before my dear Rama does?

125
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,120
[flute playing]

126
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:39,960
That is why,

127
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:42,600
Rama will demonstrate
how it has to be done.

128
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:44,480
Rama.

00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:46,480

136
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:14,160
Wonderful, Rama.

137
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:18,120
This is not one of
the wedding games.

138
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:20,480
It teaches us one of life's lessons.

139
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,320
If you satisfy someone
else's hunger before yours.

140
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:26,240
If you think about
other's well-being

141
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,520
then your karma always comes back.

142
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:35,880
There is one more learning in this.

143
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,440
If all the brothers live together

144
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,120
and share each other's
joys and sorrows,

145
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,240
then your lives will be
filled with happiness.

146
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:50,640
Mother, Rama shared this lesson with
us before we left for 'Gurukul.'

[flute playing]

148
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,440
They make a good pair.

149
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:01,320
Bharata is Rama's aide.

150
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,080
And Mandavi is an aide to Sita.

[sinister music playing]

152
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:12,440
Let us proceed

153
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:15,680
to play one more game.

154
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:17,840
[mellow music playing]

155
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:23,600
All the daughters-in-law,

156
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,080
will place their
rings in the vessels.

157
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,080
The groom and bride
will try to acquire the ring.

158
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,080
The one who gets it wins the game.

159
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,600

160
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:09,440
Hmm.

161
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,440
Whose turn will it be first, Mother?

162
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:14,800
You have always objected

163
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,200
that the youngest gets
his chance in the end.

164
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:20,520
Let us make you happy today.

165
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,120
Let us begin this
ritual with you today.

166
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:32,400
Please begin.

[mellow music playing]

168
00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:00,400
Wait and watch, Mother. My
brothers and I will win this game.

169
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:01,840
Hmm.

170
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,200
[flute playing]

171
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:18,040
I have found it.

What is this, Shatrughna?

177
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:34,880
How could you not win
such a simple game?

178
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,040
Your turn is next, Lakshmana.

179
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,080
Let us see how well
you display your might.

180
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:41,080
Wait and watch.

[mellow music playing]

182
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,680
What happened dear
brother Lakshmana?

183
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,120
Welcome to the group of husbands
who have lost to their wives.

184
00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:58,960
I will show you

185
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,520
how this game is won.

00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:12,760
But...

188
00:18:19,360 --> 00:18:20,240
Rama,

189
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,120
Sita, it is now your turn.

190
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,000
Rama, our reputation is at stake.

191
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:32,640
You have to win this game.

192
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,240
For the first time in my life,
I wish Rama would lose this game.

193
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:42,600
And my sister-in-law
who is like a mother

194
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:43,720
wins the game.

195
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:47,720
Did you hear that?

196
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,160
Your son called her mother.

197
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:55,080
Me?

198
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:57,600
When did he call me?

199
00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:59,240
Not you.

200
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,000
He referred to Sita as a mother.

201
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,400
He called her with such endearment

202
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:09,920
that it brought tears to my eyes.

203
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:15,880
He has never called
you so lovingly, Kaikeyi.

204
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:17,880
[tense music playing]

205
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:20,440
You are mistaken.

206
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,480
A sister-in-law is also
considered as a mother.

207
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,760
[mellow music playing]

208
00:19:45,360 --> 00:19:46,480
Sita,

209
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:48,680
you must win this game.

210
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:52,360
[joyful music playing]

211
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,000
[theme song playing]

212
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:28,560
Excellent.

213
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:31,760
[flute playing]

214
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,040
Our elder daughter-in-law also
has won this game.

215
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:48,520
What is this, Rama?

216
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:50,400
The one who slaughtered Tataka,

217
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,360
the one who snapped
Lord Mahadeva's bow

218
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:53,960
could not win this simple game.

219
00:20:56,360 --> 00:20:58,240
[mellow music playing]

220
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,040
Why should there be competition
in relationships, Shatrughna?

221
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:09,720
In relationships, we win

222
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:12,320
even when we lose.

223
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:14,640
[mellow music playing]

224
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,040
That is why you have the right

225
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:24,960
to this symbol of victory.

226
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,400
[theme music playing]

227
00:21:36,120 --> 00:21:38,600
[theme music continues]

228
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:47,960
[conch-shell playing fades]
