Luv, there's nobody here.
Shall we invoke King Sateertha
and challenge him to war?
Is it right to invoke an enemy?
Will he comprehend our request as a preta?
[hissing]
[ghosts chortling]
Luv, the pretas are here.
Shall we now call upon the king?
Maybe he will listen to us,
and they will listen to him.
Because they won't listen to us.
It would be better to talk to one person instead of so many.
King Sateertha, we, Luv and Kush,
Lord Valmiki's disciples, have been sent by Sage Agastya
to spread righteousness in your kingdom.
Did you find a way to slay the pretas?
We are simply using a ploy.
Why are you risking my life by plotting?
[ghosts howling]
Luv, they are coming closer.
[suspenseful music playing]
[arrow swishing]
[triumphant music plays]
[bell clanging]
[theme song playing]
Hey!
Are you, pretas, scared of other pretas?
We aren't like them any longer.
You tied our hair
and changed us.
They might also kill us.
Pretas are never satiated.
They always want more.
Please untie our hair and set us free.
No way!
If we untie your hair,
our enemies will increase.
No. We don't want more pretas. Please forgive me.
[thunder cracking]
Luv, what should we do?
They are coming closer.
[dramatic music playing]
[arrows swishing]
Hold on, Kush.
[arrow swishing]
A king's duty
is to satisfy his subjects.
King Sateertha
must also be concerned about his subjects.
A king isn't the lord but, in fact, a servant.
'Please come. All of us will eat together.'
I understand, Luv.
You may go ahead. I will stop them.
[arrow swishing]
Kush, what is your plan?
If the king of pretas attacks us,
how will we escape?
Let's wait and watch.
[spear swooshing]
Don't worry. We have protected you till now.
And you'll be safe with us in the future.
King Sateertha!
We have come here to satisfy you and your subjects.
Either come and protect your subjects,
or watch them perish by our celestial weapons.
[arrow swishing]
[thunder breaking]
[chortling]
[chortling continues]
[lightning crackling]
[chortling]
You made a mistake.
It seems he wants to kill us.
How will you appease him now?
[chortling]
[chortling continues]
Your new king will be defeated!
However, if you tell me where my brother is,
I will surely try to save your village
along with those two disciples.
You seem more concerned about getting blamed for treason
than saving your king's life.
Fine. It's okay.
Prince.
Your brother is here!
[thunder rumbling]
Please come.
[dramatic music playing]
Where are you?
Where?
[dramatic music playing]
Shatrughna!
Shatrughna, my brother.
Shatrughna, wake up. Open your eyes.
Look, I'm here.
What happened to you? Shatrughna!
What happened to Shatrughna?
Shatrughna, open your eyes.
Wake up, Shatrughna!
Wake up, my brother.
Please open your eyes, my brother.
Shatrughna!
[chortling]
Who?
Who says that they will satisfy my subjects
and liberate these pretas?
Luv-Kush!
We are the disciples of the omniscient Lord Valmiki.
We are Vandevi's sons.
[ghosts screaming]
[chortling]
[arrows swishing]
[explosion]
[chortling]
Oh! It's blood!
Amazing!
Exemplary valour.
But your valour
is useless.
[chortling]
Your Majesty, you and all the pretas
will soon be satiated.
So, we must talk about that.
You are acting so confident,
as if you are the prince of a great kingdom!
You're right.
If you hear the name of the kingdom, you'll shudder with fear.
It isn't a small kingdom.
The great Kosala...
Why would he be scared of a king who rules fifty people?
Please don't talk nonsense.
'When will they realise'
'their true identity?'
'When will they come to know that they are the princes of Ayodhya?'
[ghosts chortling]
[straining]
[joyful song playing]
[joyful song continues playing]
[joyful music playing]
King Sateertha, please control your pretas.
Allow us to help them.
They are pretas, and I can't control them.
Nor can they control their hunger.
Their hunger can never be satisfied.
[chortling]
[shouting]
Nor mine!
Look, how long will you wander around like a preta?
We want to help you,
so please guide us.
How was your golden kingdom
turned into a graveyard?
Please tell us.
Please hurry up.
We are also hungry like you.
[amusing music playing]
You seem to be brave boys.
I'll give you some time.
Listen to the answers to your questions!
[sweeping music playing]
When Ravana attacked Kubera's kingdom,
our kingdom was extremely happy
and prosperous.
My friend Kubera sought my help, but...
[explosion]
[stones cascading]
[sitar playing]
[musical instruments playing]
[celebratory music playing]
My friend Sateertha!
Sateertha, please help me!
My friend!
My friend Sateertha, please help me!
Kush, look.
He is Yaksharaj Kubera.
Please help me, my friend.
Kubera, what happened?
I have been attacked, my friend.
Ravana attacked me and snatched everything.
[dramatic music playing]
I ran from one place to another
and begged for help,
but my friend, I returned empty-handed.
So, I came to you.
Nobody can challenge Ravana.
[dramatic music playing]
Since I'm your friend,
I can't refuse to help.
However, I'm also a king,
and I can't let my subjects be killed.
So, you may stay here as long as you want.
The boundary of this kingdom
will save you from Ravana's ire.
But I won't go to war against him.
He has the protection of Lord Brahma's boon.
He is immortal.
He would kill me
as well as the subjects of my kingdom.
My friend Sateertha,
I've always supported you during difficult times.
How could you do injustice when you're supposed to protect it?
I can't let my prosperous kingdom be doomed.
My friend, my subjects haven't faced war for many years.
[suspenseful music playing]
You mean to say that your lust for comfort and luxury
robbed you of your strength. Right?
You're a coward feigning helplessness!
But please remember!
Every righteous person should side with righteousness!
One who doesn't side with righteousness
isn't a human, but a preta!
They remain hungry and dissatisfied forever!
King Sateertha, I curse you,
that you and your subjects
will transform
into your true selves!
My friend Kubera...
You and your subjects
will be born as pretas!
[dramatic music playing]
And your beautiful kingdom will be transformed into a ruin!
That's my curse!
[intense music plays]
Uh,
King Sateertha didn't do the right thing.
You made a grave mistake.
Enough!
I have had enough of your lecture!
Your wish is fulfilled.
Now fulfil our wish.
Either satisfy our hunger
or help us achieve liberation!
[chortling]
[eerie music plays]
[arrow and daggers swishing]
[explosion]
[arrow swishing]
[explosion]
[grunting]
Please find a way for us
to satisfy our hunger forever.
Otherwise, my pretas will eat you
and satisfy their hunger for now.
[chortling]
Lord, please don't compel me to use my celestial weapons.
[dramatic music playing]
Oh!
- Som! - Som!
[ghosts grunting]
[chortling]
Look at him!
[dramatic music playing]
Now you may wield a celestial weapon.
[chortling]
[thunder rumbling]
[chortling]
Luv and Kush are in trouble.
I must go inside.
[whooshing]
[chortling]
[dramatic music playing]
Oh, no! Is this a punishment for coming inside?
[explosion]
[conch shell playing]
[dramatic music playing]
Well done.
They are my Lord's sons after all.
Shatrughna.
[pensive music playing]
[suspenseful music playing]
Where are they?
Where are both the disciples?
Answer me!
I want to avenge
my brother's death right away!
[stretching the bowstring]
[thunder rumbling]
Where are Luv and Kush?
Answer me!
[dramatic music playing]
