O, knowledgeable one,
please impart your knowledge to me, your disciple.
If Shri Rama could see a Brahman in a rakshasa like me,
then I, a Brahman, will surely teach you!
O, Lakshmana.
Please listen to me carefully.
Never delay
an auspicious work.
If an action doesn't make anyone happy,
don't be in a hurry to complete it.
[melancholic music playing]
[gasping]
Can you see the soil?
A king
who works for his motherland and his kingdom
can't be defeated even by the entire universe.
Until I served my Lanka
and my rakshasa clan,
I was invincible.
The moment
I was overcome by arrogance,
my motherland and my kingdom
abandoned me.
My arrogance
brought about ruination
for Lanka and its people.
O, Lakshmana,
never reveal your weaknesses
to your relatives.
[poignant vocalising]
Time keeps
changing.
At last,
I just want you to look around.
The kingship, fame,
strength,
valour, and wealth
are perishable.
They are illusions.
The only truth is
Shri Rama!
[dramatic music playing]
Rama's name
is eternal!
Ravana! Ravana!
[Vibhishana wailing]
[thunder breaking]
Lankesh!
[thunder rumbling]
[bell clanging]
[theme song playing]
[mellow music playing]
[devotional song playing]
Today, righteousness triumphed over the ten heads of unrighteousness.
Lord Vishnu's avatar, Lord Shri Rama
carried out this task.
[devotional song playing]
- Hail Shri Rama! - Hail Shri Rama!
[devotional song playing]
- [devotional song playing] - [conch-shell playing]
We didn't trust your belief.
Mother, please forgive us.
We were simply following our king's command.
Yes, Sita.
The life of these demonesses depends on you.
My child, please forgive us
if we made a mistake.
A mother shouldn't apologise to her daughter.
You were my light in this darkness of hopelessness.
You were with me through thick and thin.
[joyful music playing]
All of you need not worry.
My Shri Rama is kind-hearted.
He is benevolent.
Righteousness will soon
illuminate Lanka's sky.
Your long wait is over.
It's time for Siya and Rama to reunite.
- Lankesh! - [thunder rumbling]
Lankesh!
- Lankesh! - [thunder rumbling]
[lightning crackling]
[thunder breaking]
Rama, what is nature indicating?
What difficulty are we going to face now?
Lakshmana, it's the negative impact
of the cry of a devoted wife.
Lakshmana, when we try but fail,
and lose everything,
our conscience cries out.
Lakshmana, it's the outcry of a devoted wife, Devi Mandodari.
If her grief turns into anger,
the entire universe could be destroyed.
[lightning crackling]
[Mandodari wailing]
[lightning crackling]
Rama, what is the solution to this problem?
Lakshmana, there's no solution.
I'm helpless.
I can't change the direction
of her outcry even with the help of all my powers.
I'm ready
to take the blow of her hurt conscience.
Lakshmana, I can't do
anything else.
[thunder rumbling]
Lankesh!
[Mandodari wailing]
Lankesh!
Mandodari, please don't cry.
It's time to turn your tears into a weapon.
You shouldn't be grieving for him.
Mandodari, you must fan the flames of anger!
Can't a person avenge his sister's insult?
My brother was killed deceitfully!
Rama and Sita
were the perpetrators of this conspiracy!
Just think.
If Rama could kill Dashanan,
couldn't he stop him
from kidnapping Sita?
Lakshmana chopped off my nose
and killed Meghanada!
Couldn't he protect Sita?
But they didn't,
as it was part of a conspiracy.
They incited Ravana
and left Sita all alone.
Then they waged war against him in cahoots with the deities,
under the pretext of rescuing her.
Mandodari, the entire world
is aware of your power as a devoted wife.
Mandodari, invoke your power
and finish off Rama, Sita, and Lakshmana with your curse!
Mandodari, make them pay for their bad karma!
Your Majesty!
His Majesty died.
It's a catastrophe.
Mandodari,
he was crying out in pain in his last moments!
He was wreathing in pain!
Who was responsible for it?
Rama, Sita, and Lakshmana are responsible for it!
Mandodari, Ravana is quiet forever.
At the very least, you should speak out.
Yes!
I'll surely curse!
[dramatic music playing]
Excuse me, Your Majesty.
All of us want to punish
His Majesty's culprit.
But once cast,
the curse of a devoted wife can't be undone.
So please curse the person
who was truly responsible for this catastrophe.
How did Rama come here?
Who brought him here?
Who helped him build a bridge
over the ocean?
Who burned down Lanka under the pretext of delivering a message?
[dramatic music playing]
Who incited Prince Vibhishana
to commit treason?
Just think.
Who guided Lakshmana to Meghanada's cave?
Who laid the foundation of this bloodbath?
Please answer.
Lastly,
who emotionally blackmailed you
into disrupting His Majesty's 'yajna' for invincibility?
He is the biggest culprit of this catastrophe.
He deserves the strictest punishment.
[dramatic music playing]
Hanuman?
Trijata, you're right.
Hanuman is the cause of my grief!
He is the reason behind my loss!
He deceived me!
I'll curse him!
No, Mandodari.
I, Sati Mandodari,
use the power of my devotedness,
and curse Vanara Hanuman!
[thunder cracking]
He conspired against me
for Shri Rama!
I curse him to get separated from Rama!
He will pine for his Lord just as I'm pining
for my husband now!
For eternity!
[thunder rumbling]
[thunder breaking]
Your Majesty!
[dramatic music playing]
Who are you?
[dramatic music playing]
Hail Shri Rama!
- [wind whooshing] - [Sanskrit mantra chanting]
Hanuman!
[Sanskrit mantra chanting]
Forgive me, Mother Mandodari.
Anger clouds our judgement.
I knew
you'd use your power
against Lord Shri Rama, even if unknowingly.
If I had allowed it,
it would have been a sin.
Because you would have sinned
by cursing an innocent person,
despite being famous as a devoted wife.
Mother, it was my duty to endure your curse
as the devotee and servant
of Lord Shri Rama,
the avatar of Narayana.
[dramatic music playing]
But, Mother, your curse is unbearable.
I'd have been okay
if you had killed me
or reduced me to ashes.
But you snatched my reason to live.
You snatched my boon of serving my Lord for a lifetime.
Mother, I was simply following my duty.
Just as you.
Mother, please forgive me
if I made a mistake.
Mother, I'm blessed as you cursed me
instead of my Lord.
I'll always be indebted to you.
I fulfilled my duties successfully
because I protected my Lord from your curse.
Mother, that's more than enough for me.
Hail Shri Rama!
[poignant vocalising]
Your Majesty, it's time for Devi Sita to leave.
You shielded her during her stay in Lanka.
You must now help Janki get ready
to meet Shri Rama.
Just as a mother helps her daughter
get ready before bidding her farewell.
[flames flaring]
Lord, now you own Lanka.
I didn't come here to rule Lanka,
but to fulfil my duty.
Vibhishana, I'm a forest dweller. I don't want to rule a kingdom.
Lanka belongs to the people of Lanka,
belonged in the past, and always will.
The sinful Lanka will be guided
by King Vibhishana
on the path of righteousness.
[mellow music playing]
Vibhishana, I just want my Sita back,
respectfully.
Lankesh, please take over Lanka's rule!
[explosion]
[wind whooshing]
[suspenseful music playing]
What kind of rule?
The war isn't over yet!
The war is still on!
[shrieking]
[screaming]
