Both your promises are fulfilled. Right?
Then why did you come here?
I just came
to see His Majesty once...
Don't you dare!
Your unrighteous wish took His Majesty's life!
Only his body remains.
I can't let
your inauspicious presence spoil this moment!
You are the reason he died!
Can't you let him be peaceful even after his death?
Please let him be at peace!
Here you are! You wanted this, right?
You came here for this, right?
Please take it away and adorn it on Bharata's head!
I think it will compensate for his father's blessings!
Congratulations to you!
Congratulations, Queen Mother!
Today, all your wishes are fulfilled!
Congratulations!
[gloomy music playing]
Queen Kaikeyi, you can't deny the truth
by turning your back!
The truth is
that you snatched our good fortune
and Ayodhya's ruler, our Rama
from us!
[Sumitra wailing]
[bell clanging]
[theme song playing]
[joyful music playing]
Sage Bharadwaja showed us the right path.
We'll get the benefit of serving and helping the sages
in Chitrakoot.
Lord, our exile can't be put to a better use
than this.
Moreover, this place is exquisite.
Rama and Sita,
I can make a hut here for you two
if you wish.
Sure, Lakshmana.
However, please beware.
This forest is sheltering us
and letting us make our house.
Lakshmana, we shouldn't destroy anyone else's abode.
No insect, creature,
birds or living beings should be harmed.
We must live in a natural environment
as its part.
I'll do as you say, Rama.
[joyful music playing]
[song playing]
[mellow music playing]
'Mother, I'm taking a part of you, a fistful of soil with me.'
[mellow music playing]
Acharya, what will Bharata do?
Will he fulfil his mother's wish
or stand up to righteousness like his father?
Bharata is Rama's younger brother.
I'm confident
that Bharata's choice and his karma
will be remembered by history for eternity.
[mellow music playing]
[wind whooshing]
[suspenseful music playing]
Bharata, what's the matter? You look anxious.
This...
Shatrughna, this bad omen is making me restless.
It's an indication of an untoward.
Don't overthink.
The diya was extinguished due to the breeze.
It's a mere coincidence and not a bad omen.
No, Shatrughna. A single incident could be a coincidence.
I didn't tell you
that for the last few days,
I have been having nightmares.
Shatrughna, I'm really worried.
I'm sure Ayodhya is in danger.
'Bharata! Shatrughna!'
A messenger from Ayodhya is here.
Greetings, Prince of Ayodhya.
I brought Maharishi Vashishtha's message.
He has summoned both of you to Ayodhya as soon as possible.
Suddenly?
Is everything all right in Ayodhya?
My brother Rama
and Father?
Are they fine?
Prince, they are fine.
Bharata, look. Everything is fine.
You were worried for nothing.
Bharata,
a good warrior
shouldn't worry.
Okay, Uncle.
Please allow Shatrughna and me
to go back.
May God bless you with a long life.
May you have a long life. Have an auspicious journey, son.
[suspenseful music playing]
[joyful music playing]
[conch-shell playing]
Lakshmana, unbelievable.
You built a beautiful hut.
I didn't know you could build a hut.
Thank you, Rama.
Rama, this house is ready.
With your permission,
shall we enter this house ritually?
Lakshmana, Ayodhya is our house!
It will always be!
So I'll scatter a part of Ayodhya
in the Chitrakoot forest.
Lord Sun,
King Harishchandra,
Raghu, Dilipa
and Bhagiratha stand witness.
I consider my father, King Dasharatha
and the three mothers as witnesses
before entering this hut.
[conch-shell playing]
[conch-shell playing intensifies]
Please come.
[theme music playing]
The sacred soil of my Ayodhya.
You signify Ayodhya's honour,
dignity and values.
Please guide me on the path of duty
always.
Rama, you are missing Ayodhya, right?
No, Lakshmana.
I'm feeling low today.
I feel as if my family
and my Ayodhya are in serious trouble.
O, Mother,
please save us.
Lord, you are worried for no reason.
My father-in-law
is the most able king in the world.
He won't let his Ayodhya be harmed.
Bharata and Shatrughna are there with him.
Please be rest assured.
Your younger brothers won't let your Ayodhya
and your father be harmed.
I trust Bharata more than I trust myself.
There can't be a better son or ruler
than him.
[horses neighing]
[suspenseful music playing]
Mandavi, it's the first time we haven't been welcomed in Ayodhya.
The people who showed affection
and respect
are averse to us today.
There has surely been an untoward event.
Charioteer, please speed up the chariot!
I want to meet Rama and Father immediately!
[tense music plays]
'Strangely, Ayodhya looks desolate!'
'There's not a single soldier or servant present here.'
[Manthara chortling]
The long wait is over.
Kaikeyi, our Bharata is back!
- Bharata! - Yes.
- My Bharata! - Yes.
Stop! Stop, Kaikeyi!
Will you meet Bharata teary-eyed?
Kaikeyi, please get a grip on yourself!
Please understand your duty as a mother.
Enlighten Bharata about your dedication,
the value of your affection
and the importance of your boons.
Do you understand, Kaikeyi?
Bharata must meet me first in Ayodhya.
Please go.
If Bharata sees
his father's dead body before meeting me,
he won't listen to me
or try to understand my point.
Please hurry up.
Okay.
Rama! Rama, where are you?
- Bharata! - Rama!
Bharata! Bharata!
Come with me.
Your Mother Kaikeyi has been waiting for you.
Come with me.
Um, let me meet Rama first.
I'll meet my mother later.
You may meet Rama also.
Bharata, you know that a mother has the first right to her son.
Huh?
Kaikeyi has been pining to meet you.
First... Go and meet her first! Yes!
Give it to me. Bharata, please go!
- Okay. - Yes.
[melancholic music playing]
Mother.
How are you?
I missed you a lot.
Mother, do you know...
[sombre music playing]
[dramatic music playing]
Mother.
Your bejewelled hairpin...
Your ascetic garb...
Mother, what's going on?
Mother, please tell me
that my fear
is baseless.
Son, everyone who takes birth
in this world dies one day.
Every person has to leave the mortal body.
No matter how hard one tries,
nobody is immortal.
Mother, tell me the truth clearly.
Your father,
King Dasharatha
proved this fact
and left us forever, Bharata!
[dramatic music playing]
[thunder rumbling]
Bharata!
No! No! [whimpering]
[Bharata wailing]
It's impossible.
It's impossible!
Bharata...
Why, Father?
Father, why didn't you pass on my responsibility to Rama?
Why didn't you
fulfil this duty of yours
and leave me as an orphan?
I...
I was unlucky enough
not to be near him during his last moments!
You are Raghukul's prince.
You are a warrior.
A valorous man shouldn't weep.
Bharata,
you have to fulfil some big responsibilities.
Many responsibilities.
Mother.
Mother, did Father
remember me during his last moments?
Did he take my name
before he died?
Mother, please tell me. Please!
I'm sure he took my name.
He loved me immensely.
Your father was affectionate
only towards Rama!
He kept remembering Rama
while breathing his last.
He kept repeating Rama's name and sacrificed his life.
What?
"He sacrificed his life while remembering Rama?"
It means Rama was also not here.
Mother,
where was Rama?
Mother, where is Rama?
He is in the forest!
What?
"Forest?"
But why?
What's going on in Ayodhya?
What could be so urgent
that Rama wasn't present during his father's last moments?
I'm back from Kekeya but Rama is still in the forest!
Why, Mother?
Your Brother Rama is fulfilling Raghukul's custom.
He is fulfilling the promises made by his father.
"Promise?"
Mother, what promises?
Your father had granted two boons.
Rama was given 14 years of exile
and you were given
Ayodhya's throne!
[dramatic music playing]
You are Ayodhya's prince.
It means
you have been declared Ayodhya's future king, Bharata!
Ayodhya's future king.
Bharata,
it's not the time to cry.
You must fulfil your responsibility
like a brave king.
You must leave an imprint on the minds of your subjects.
Be a valorous and powerful warrior
and fulfil all your duties, Bharata.
Mother, you are right.
It's the right time
to fulfil my responsibility.
I must leave an imprint on the minds of my subjects!
I must wipe off the black mark
spread across the kingdom of Ayodhya!
I must expose the evil plot
hatched in this palace!
Mother,
my first duty is to find the plotter
who compelled my father to make such a promise!
The one who uttered the wish of sending my Rama into exile!
My first duty is to kill that person!
[dramatic music playing]
I swear on my Ayodhya
and my Brother Rama
that once I get hold of that evil plotter,
I won't spare them alive!
[dramatic music playing]
