Ravana.
[dramatic music playing]
Not tears.
I want an answer.
The name.
I want the name
of the one who dared to attack
Ravana's sister's honour
and Lanka's self-respect.
And I want revenge.
And the death of that defiant man.
I want Rama to be destroyed, Ravana.
[thunder rumbling]
What was the fault of this mother
who was wandering, looking for her son?
What was my Shambuk's fault,
my son,
who was given
the punishment of death, without any fault of his.
[dramatic music playing]
Shambuk?
Yes, Ravana.
Those forest dwellers killed him.
Your nephew...
They killed Lankesh's nephew.
Along with my beauty
they destroyed my soul, too.
While all this was happening in the Dandaka forest
were Khar and Dushan sitting quietly?
No, Ravana.
They were not quiet.
But now...
They have been silenced forever, Ravana.
[tense music playing]
When Khar and Dushan
went to ask them why they had done this,
those cruel forest dwellers
killed our 14,000
asura relatives, along with
both of them, Ravana.
Rama and Lakshmana sounded
the war cry against the rakshasas.
And...
And Sita...
She was
feeling happy watching
your sister being insulted.
I want revenge, Ravana.
I want revenge.
[intense music playing]
[sitar playing]
Before revenge
you need treatment, Shurpanakha.
Before the wounds
of your heart heal,
it is important to heal the wounds of your body.
Our royal physician Sushena
will help you get your beauty back
with his treatment.
[emotional music playing]
[tense music playing]
Remember!
Whatever has happened in the court today,
no one will talk
or discuss it.
If the details of my sister's insult
go out of this royal court
then, before I kill those forest dwellers
I will take each of your lives.
[dramatic music playing]
[dramatic music continues playing]
You are Lanka's best spy.
I want you to go to Dandaka forest immediately.
Find out about these three forest dwellers.
Rama, Lakshmana
and Sita.
What are they doing in the forest?
What are their intentions?
I want all the information in detail.
I want to know everything.
As you command, King Ravana.
[intense music playing]
[theme song playing]
[theme song continues playing]
[theme song playing]
[theme song continues playing]
Come, Sita.
Where are we going, my Lord?
After what happened yesterday,
I can understand the fear that has risen in your mind.
Your happiness has disappeared.
We are going to look for it.
And I am sure
that I will find my Sita's happiness.
Come.
[flute playing]
[theme song playing]
[mellow music playing]
Wonderful.
I never imagined that there would be
such a beautiful place in this scary forest.
Did you see that?
Your happiness has returned.
You always manage to make me happy
with your feelings and effort, my Lord.
Just like how you made this tough exile
so easy
with your dedication.
You also make every moment of mine beautiful, Sita.
You have turned this forest into heaven
with your love.
It is my duty
that I should try to return this debt.
And anyway, Sita...
We live life through these small moments.
Instead of
worrying about the future every second,
it is better
to find happiness in the present.
You're right, my Lord.
I want to
capture this moment,
this instant and this love for the rest of my life.
[theme song playing]
[intense music playing]
[dramatic music playing]
Whatever you said in the court
was only half of the truth.
I want to know the complete truth.
What happened
with you in the Dandaka forest, Shurpanakha?
The truth is that
I wanted to fulfil the promise that I made to you, Ravana.
My brother is the possessor of every beautiful object
in the world.
But, if the world's most beautiful woman
is not with him
then this pride is incomplete, Ravana.
And that is why,
I went to abduct Sita.
My son, Shambuk,
went along with me
to complete this mission.
But then, Rama...
Rama killed my son
and stripped me of my esteem.
I had gone to bring
the world's most beautiful woman for my brother.
But I have returned after losing my beauty.
But I will not give up.
So what if I have lost my beauty?
I will not let go of my word.
Once I recover
I will go back.
Either I will kill Rama
and bring Sita for my brother
or I will die at his mercy.
I am ready to do anything
for the sake of my brother's happiness.
There is no need for you to do anything.
I will decide what needs to be done
with those forest dwellers.
There is only one way of bringing back
the lost honour of Lanka and Lankesh.
Rama's death and Sita's abduction.
[dramatic music playing]
All this sister wants in return
for her sacrifices is her brother's happiness.
You will get justice.
[pensive music playing]
And Lanka
will get revenge for its insult.
'Aah!'
'Don't be greedy'
'to get what does not belong to you.'
'Learn to be happy with what you have.'
[dramatic music playing]
When there is doubt in the mind
then justice cannot be achieved.
Ravana, I know
that you are worried because of the promise
that you have given Lord Mahadeva.
But now, even that will not come in the way.
Because you are not eyeing Sita now.
You are merely taking revenge.
Revenge for the insult that your sister and dynasty have faced.
You have an answer to give Lord Mahadeva.
That you are punishing Rama
for the tyranny that your sister has been through.
By taking his life.
To save a helpless widow
you will marry her.
Sita deserves to live in the golden palaces of Lanka.
Not for wandering in a forest.
Sita deserves someone better than Rama.
He bears no proper clothes on his body.
Nor does he have footwear.
Ravana, you are going to give a woman what she deserves.
Being a woman,
I am confident
that in return for this favour
Sita will be forever indebted to you.
We have to send them a befitting reply, Father.
This attack
has been made on the dignity of our clan.
We will surely take revenge in this matter.
[dramatic music playing]
Please allow me, Father.
I will leave with my army this instant.
I will punish Rama for his sins.
[sinister music playing]
I am proud of your gallantry.
Ravana.
We must first think calmly about all this.
It does not look like Rama is an ordinary human being.
Cruel monsters like Tataka, Mahakapala,
and even Viradha were killed by him.
It will not be easy to defeat him, Ravana.
Ravana, it would be the right policy
that we speak to Rama.
We must listen to what he has to say.
[intense music playing]
The one who respects women,
the virtuous man who free Ahalya
must have attacked Shurpanakha
due to a strong reason.
[dramatic music playing]
But the policy does not say
that you refer to him as the virtuous one.
Fool.
[tense music playing]
Lord.
Whatever happened with Shurpanakha
has agitated me and hurt me.
But I feel that,
the truth is bigger than
whatever Shurpanakha has told us.
[dramatic music playing]
There are many questions to which there are no answers.
It would be best
that you find out in detail about what happened
and then take a decision.

[theme song continues playing]
What is this important job you are lost in, Sita
that you ignored these beautiful flowers
and Rama?
I'm trying to look into the future.
I'm counting
how many days are left for our exile to be completed.
I wonder when
I will be able to meet Bharata, Shatrughna
and my sisters.
Look, it is less than a year.
Just a few more months
and then once again...
Once again, we will able to touch the holy soil of Ayodhya.
My brother Bharata
will be in my embrace.
And once again,
I will get the companionship of my mothers' love.
Yes.
I can see happiness in your eyes.
But there is worry in my happiness.
What is the matter, Sita?
Will you not be happy going back to Ayodhya?
Which special tasks are you going for, Lankesh?
Where are you departing to, all of a sudden?
The attack has not been on Shurpanakha's nose,
but it has been made on Lanka's honour.
I am going to bring back
Lanka's and Lankesh's honour.
Are you going without an army?
You are going to fight
against the one who killed
14,000 of our rakshasa relatives.
Remember.
You are talking to Lankesh Dashanan Ravana.
The Ravana
whose slave is time.
The one who bears
nectar in his navel.
That trivial human being
may have killed 14,000 rakshasas
with his ordinary weapons.
But he will not survive in front of
the Lord of 14 worlds.
Even a mighty elephant
can collapse due to the sting of a tiny ant.
[intense music playing]
Please do not forget
that your boon does not include
protection from humans.
And he is not an ordinary human, Lankesh.
It would be best
that you take Meghanada along with you.
A dog is taken when we go hunting, Mandodari.
Not a lion.
I do not need Meghanada
for the task that I am going for.
I need the dog
that I have been training for this day.
Will you not fight a war, in that case?
Your wisdom has been eclipsed with fear.
The sharpness with which you had attracted me
has become less, Mandodari.
Will Lankesh challenge two forest dwellers,
who have been exiled from their kingdom?
No.
One should behave wickedly with the wicked.
As is the God, so is the worship.
Like action, like reaction.
That forest dweller,
attacked my sister's honour.
Now, I will attack his honour.
He has raised his head against Ravana.
I will make him bow his head
in front of the entire universe.
He has taken up the responsibility of protecting the sages.
I will put him to shame
saying that he could not protect his own honour.
This war is not going to be fought with strength
but with strategy.
What are you planning to do, Lankesh?
Abduction.
