[flute playing]
You have given me the best news of my life, Hanuman.
For a husband who was wandering in a desert,
ready to die of thirst,
you have come like the cool water of Ganga.
Come sit down, Hanuman.
[mellow music]
How is she?
How is my...
[theme music playing]
Hanuman, you have brought Sita's news.
This is an auspicious occasion.
You must not shed tears at such a time, Hanuman.
What news have you brought?
Tell me.
My Lord, by your grace,
I crossed the ocean and reached Lanka.
I saw Mother Sita and met her.
How is my Sita?
Is she okay?
My Lord, she's your reflection.
Just like there are
clouds of worry for her on your face,
Mother's face shows the pain of separation from you.
There is hope of reaching her, in your eyes.
And in her dried-up eyes,
one can see the thirst of seeing her Rama.
Mother was sitting under a tree
in the Ashoka Vatika in Lankapuri.
She is being guarded by several elusive Rakshasis.
She looked sad,
as if a bird's wings had been clipped.
As distracted as a fish out of water.
And those evil Rakshasis,
keep saying mean things to Mother Sita.
Lord, they taunt her with your name.
My Lord, due to the sorrow of your separation
Mother Sita has given up food and water.
[melancholic music playing]
Does Sita think of me, so much?
Just like the Sun cannot stay away from its light,
a flower cannot stay away from its fragrance,
how can Mother Sita alienate herself
from her Lord Shree Rama.
With each breath only the words 'Shree Rama' are uttered by her.
My Lord, she closes her eyes
and looks only for you in the ocean of your devotion.
Your reflection is visible in each tear that flows down her cheek.
Yes, my Lord. This is how my Mother is.

[theme music continues playing]
Please do not worry, my Lord.

[theme music continues playing]
[mellow music playing]
Lord...
Hanuman,
has Sita not sent
any message for me?
Yes, Lakshmana.
Lakshmana, she has apologised to you.
She told me,
'Greet my Lakshmana, as soon as you reach.'
'Because he is greater than me.'
Mother said, my legs wavered on Rama's path,
but Lakshmana's feet did not.
Mother told me that her pain,
is the result of uttering harsh words
to her son like brother-in-law.
[flute playing]
[theme music playing]
My Lord, as a proof of our meeting,
Mother has sent this 'chudamani' to give to you.
[theme music playing]
My Lord, Mother also told me
that Ravana has insulted this 'chudamani.'
She wants you to finish Ravana
and adorn this 'chudamani' in her hair.
Lord, Mother told me about Jayanta.
She said that I must remind you
about how during the exile, Lord Indra's son evil son, Jayanta
came disguised as a crow to trouble Mother Sita.
As a retribution,
you attacked him with the Brahmastra.
Lord, after hearing this story from my mouth,
are you convinced
that I indeed met Mother Sita?
Hanuman.
How did you even imagine that I would not believe you?
An ocean can cross its limits
for a moment.
The Earth can give up
her motherhood for a second,
but Rama's faith in Hanuman
can never be shaken.
[flute playing]
My Lord, I have to tell you one more thing.
That...
Seeing Mother Sita's condition
this son could not hold himself back.
While returning, I destroyed
all of Ashoka Vatika.
[Hanuman hymn playing]
Who else but Anjani Putra,
could have destroyed Lanka?
The courage which could not be shown by the Gods,
has been shown by you, Hanuman.
I am indebted to you, Hanuman.
Why are you making me feel embarrassed, my Lord.
I did whatever a servant
and a son would have done.
Lord, now you must do
that, which is a husband's duty. Attack Lanka.
We have to rescue Mother Sita.
[dramatic music playing]
Yes, Hanuman.
We will not delay any further.
[exhilarating music playing]
Monkey King, Sugriva.
Call a meeting of all your senior army commandants.
After discussing with them,
we will march towards Lanka.
[conch-shell playing]
As you say, my Lord.
Brave Monkeys, the time has come.
It is time to pay Shree Rama what we owe him.
We have found out that the evil Ravana
has abducted Mother Sita, and where he has kept her.
To bring back Mother Sita and to punish that wicked man,
we will begin marching towards Lanka tomorrow.
A battle is not won only by enthusiasm
but we need to have resources too, King Sugriva.
In order to reach Lanka,
we have to cross an ocean that is 800 miles wide.
How will we cross that horrifying ocean?
A battle is not won with resources, but with determination, Jambavanta.
We are obligated to Shree Rama.
We cannot look at the obstructions while returning his favour.
We will somehow cross the ocean.
As soon as we set foot in Lanka,
we will destroy all the enemies in a moment.
I will face the Asuras and put an end to Ravana's arrogance.
We will win this battle of virtue. Have faith in me.
Monkey King Sugriva, I'm overwhelmed
by your determination and perseverance.
But being overconfident
could prove fatal.
To underestimate our enemy's power
is the biggest mistake of warfare.
It is important to identify their power, Monkey King.
Hanuman.
Ravana is an able ruler.
It won't be easy to enter his kingdom.
Tell me,
how is Lanka? Describe it such that,
I should feel like I am looking at Lanka.
If Lanka is viewed from the top of Trikoota Mountain, where it stands,
it looks like Indrapuri.
Impenetrable walls made of gold
are surrounded by a deep moat on all four sides.
Several dangerous sea animals live inside the water.
My Lord,
Ravana's army has thousands of elephants.
It is impossible to enter Lanka through the door on the West.
Because there are so many guards standing there,
that we cannot even count their number.
The same is with the entrance on the East.
Lord, forget about humans,
even an ant cannot crawl into Lanka.
An army of chariots is forever ready at the Southern entrance.
And the centre point of Lanka,
is decorated with different kinds of weapons.
My Lord, but this does not mean
that Lanka is impenetrable.
My Lord, with your grace, I have destroyed
one-fourth of Lankesh's army.
I killed the son of Dashanana, Akshayakumara.
I also burnt down Lanka using their fire.
Lord, no matter how powerful Lankesh is,
it is certain that he will collapse
in front of your courage and power.
Lord, who is there in this world
who can stand before you and your army?
My Lord, please command us.
We will reach there
and put an end to Mother Sita's wait.
[dramatic music playing]
[exhilarating music playing]
Monkey warriors,
the one who has weapons
and the strength in their arms to fight,
who has friends like Hanuman and Sugriva,
and a determination to cross the ocean,
no force in the universe can stop him.
[drums playing]
So, Monkey warriors,
keep in mind, that at an auspicious time, tomorrow,
we will begin our journey of victory over Lanka.
So that we can free this Earth from the weight of the Asuras.
But, also remember, this is an army of 160 million monkeys.
If we travel through the cities,
then the life in those places will be in danger.
So, we will make sure our path
is at a distance from every city and town that we cross.
We will make our path,
through the forest.
So that we don't fall short
of fruits, honey and water.
The contribution of the monkey army
in freeing the universe of unrighteousness,
will be forever remembered.
[theme music playing]
Hail Shree Rama.
- Hail Shree Rama. - Hail Shree Rama.
We are terrible for fear. We are Rama's army.
- We are Rama's army. - We are Rama's army.
- Hail Shree Rama. - Hail Shree Rama.

[theme music fades]
[melancholic music playing]
I had said earlier...
I had said that we must give him the death penalty, but...
Look at the havoc that he has caused.
If that audacious monkey comes back,
then I will kill him without waiting for your orders, Father.
All this is because of that woman, Your Majesty.
Because of her, Lanka's honour has turned to dust.
She must be punished.
Lankesh, use your strength
and strip her of her honour.
If my feet were not bound
by the curse of Nalakurbera,
then Sita would be mine by now.
I would have forcibly married her.
There is power in your reasoning,
and Sita should be punished.
It is possible that Sita could have told
that Monkey about Lanka's powers.
Whatever it is, this is not the time to punish her.
It is time to essential to ensure
that the plans of our enemy
should not be completed.
Meghanada.
I am Lankesh Dashana Ravana.
I am the leader of all the ten worlds.
What did that Monkey think?
Did he think that he could run off
after setting my Lanka on fire?
This is not the same Lanka
that Vishrava received as a donation.
This is that Lanka,
that Ravana has
grown with his blood.
That arrogant Monkey,
forgot that Lanka is made of gold.
The heat of the fire will make it more glorious.
We have to remove this block
as soon as possible. Every citizen of Lanka,
should come forward in unity
and rebuild
all of Lanka.
Meghanada.
Open the doors to the treasury.
Help all the people.
There should be so much light in Lanka,
that the forest dwellers eyes should get blinded.
They will come to the battlefield
only when they can overthrow us in riches.
We are Rakshasas. We
protect.
We Protect.
- We protect. - We protect.
