[sniffling]
You are my parent,
friend and also my well-wisher.
How could I live without you?
Rama, I can't live without you!
[mellow music playing]
[melancholic music playing]
Please calm down.
These tears don't suit my brave Lakshmana.
Lakshmana, the exile is meant only for me.
[sweeping music playing]
Rama, how do you define your name?
Am I not an inseparable part of your being?
If not,
kill me and end my pain.
Lakshmana.
What are you saying?
Lakshmana, look at me.
It's true that Lakshmana is part of Rama
but Lakshmana's mother
and his wife are an integral part
of Lakshmana's being.
Lakshmana, you must fulfil your duty towards them.
[gloomy music playing]
Mother.
[sobbing]
Son, you may go! Please go!
[melancholic music playing]
I gave you away in Rama's service before you were even born.
Now that Rama really needs you,
how could I back off?
I chose you for service, right?
Son, please serve him and fulfil your duty during the exile.
Serve your brother and sister-in-law day in and day out.
Eat the leftover food
after they are done eating.
Please don't think about Ayodhya or your mother
during your exile.
You aren't taking Rama and Sita
but Ayodhya's soul with you!
[mellow music playing]
Please go.
Mother, Father rightly said
that my Mother Sumitra is the most big-hearted one.
I don't know
I'm big-hearted or not
but the truth is
only you occupy my heart, Rama.
Lakshmana,
serve your brother at any cost.
Stay with him for a lifetime.
That's my blessing!
And it's also my order!
Yes, Mother.
[joyful music playing]
[mellow music playing]
[conch-shell playing]
Rama, please protect my son Lakshmana
like a father.
Please bring my son back to me safely.
[dramatic music playing]
Lakshmana, we didn't get permission from everyone yet.
You won't get my consent
until Urmila agrees.
Yes, Rama.
[theme song playing]
[theme song continues playing]
[theme song playing]
Are the rumours true?
Shri Rama is given exile and Bharata will ascend Ayodhya's throne!
Yes, it's true.
How could they be unfair to Lord Shri Rama?
- It's unbelievable! - It's a plot.
Brother, it's a plot hatched by Queen Kaikeyi.
She compelled His Majesty to make this decision at Manthara's behest.
We won't let this untoward happen!
Yes. We'll stop Shri Rama! We won't tolerate injustice!
- Yes, we'll stop Shri Rama! - We'll stop Shri Rama!
- We won't let this happen! - We won't tolerate it!
- We won't let Shri Rama leave! - We'll request him to stop!
Your Majesty, water...
[melancholic music playing]
'We won't let it happen!'
'We'll stop Shri Rama!'
'Only Rama will be our prince.'
'How could this sin happen in His Majesty's presence?'
'We'll stop Shri Rama!'
'We won't tolerate injustice!'
Your Majesty, do you hear them?
The subjects are hurt by this verdict along with you.
Your Majesty, please relax.
The people of Ayodhya won't let their Rama leave.
Urmila, I'm going into exile to serve Rama and Sita
and fulfil my duty.
This decision is solely mine.
However, Rama believes
that I can't do it without your consent.
So I request you...
Lord, my values don't allow me
to go against my husband.
You may fulfil your duty
wholeheartedly
but what about my duty?
[pensive music playing]
You may fulfil your vow of serving your brother
but please don't snatch
my right to serve my husband
and assist him in his penance.
[suspenseful music playing]
Serving your brother is justified
but Sita is my sister.
I also have the right to serve her.
Urmila.
Although I'm Shri Rama's younger brother,
I'm not accomplished like him.
During my exile,
I'll have to serve my brother and sister-in-law day and night.
If you accompany me,
I'll have the added responsibility of protecting my wife.
Urmila, your presence
and your love will be a deterrent to my goal.
I have to stay awake
day and night during the exile.
I must sacrifice myself in serving my brother and sister-in-law.
- So your presence... - No, Lord.
I won't let you do the penance all alone.
As I'm your better half,
I have equal rights to the hieratic rituals you do.
Lord, I'll always be with you mentally
no matter where I am physically!
After you leave,
my life
will lose sunshine.
My life
will plunge into darkness.
Lord, I have just one wish.
I want to see you
as soon as I open my eyes.
[melancholic music playing]
Urmila, what are you saying?
In addition to me, there's one more hurdle
to your goal of serving
Sita and Rama, lord.
It's your sleep.
Human beings can't control it.
Lord, I have an advice.
Please leave both hurdles in Ayodhya.
I'll sleep on your behalf for 14 years.
So that you would fulfil your duty for 14 years without sleep.
Urmila,
you just showed what sacrifice
looks like.
I'll remember you
every moment during these 14 years.
Your Lakshmana promises you!
[mellow music playing]
[suspenseful music playing]
Listen.
It's already dusk. Please light diyas in the room.
[suspenseful music playing]
The darkness brought upon Ayodhya by the queen
can't be dispelled by lighting diyas.
A mother turned evil for the first time.
[dramatic music playing]
[dramatic music intensifies]
How could you two be so insolent even though you are servants?
It isn't insolence but our pain.
She snatched everything from our Rama.
How could anyone be so lowly?
Quiet! Let my Bharata become king.
Then I'll banish all of you.
Just like I sent Rama away.
Is a country restricted to Ayodhya and the palace?
No. A country comprises common people.
And the common people are with their Rama.
The Rama,
who will soon leave Ayodhya
on the king's orders.
Irrespective of the king's orders,
the common people are with Rama.
- Rama is our king. - [scoffing]
[suspenseful music playing]
[dramatic music playing]
Kaikeyi, please don't be disheartened.
Don't worry about the criticism by these lowly servants.
No, Manthara.
Rama is really...
He is adored by them.
If we want to free Bharata's rule from obstacles,
we must turn the subjects of Ayodhya against Rama
before sending him into exile!
We must change his image
as a king.
[adventurous music playing]
[conch-shell playing]
[ethereal music playing]
[mellow music playing]
Sita, please forgive me.
I can't come with you.
Urmila's sacrifice is unmatched.
Though she isn't accompanying Lakshmana,
she is assisting Lakshmana in fulfilling his duty.
To help Lakshmana stay awake for 14 years,
she embraced the next 14 years of her life
as night.
[gloomy music playing]
The world will never forget
your sacrifice.
Urmila,
you will become immortal.
[mellow music playing]
Urmila,
you are doing the toughest penance in this world.
You'll always have my blessings.
[joyful music playing]
[theme music playing]
[theme song playing]
[theme song continues playing]
Mother,
we'll take Father's leave
and head towards the forest.
'Rama, won't you see me off?'
[tense music plays]
[suspenseful music playing]
Mother.
[dramatic music playing]
[dramatic music continues playing]
[dramatic music playing]
His Majesty can't get over you.
He seems to have forgotten the definition of duty because of you.
If you met him wearing these clothes,
he'd belittle the family's honour
as well as his stature.
It's your choice.
Do you want to compel him to falter from his duty
wearing a prince's dress?
If you really
accept your exile...
[suspenseful music playing]
[dramatic music playing]
[melancholic music playing]
[suspenseful music playing]
Remove your dress and wear the saffron colour!
Become an ascetic.
[dramatic music playing]
If you wear a saffron-coloured dress and meet your father as an ascetic,
he'd be able
to tread the path of duty.
Rama, please don't complicate the situation.
Leave Ayodhya as soon as possible.
I'll do as you say, Mother.
We'll leave soon.
[gloomy music playing]
- "We"? - Yes, Mother.
Sita and Lakshmana are also accompanying me!
[suspenseful music playing]
[dramatic music playing]
Nice. Why not?
The more the merrier.
I'll go and bring saffron-coloured dresses
for the two of them. [chuckling]
God is doing everything in our favour.
My Bharata's way
has been cleared of impediments
like Lakshmana and Sita automatically!
[suspenseful music playing]
[sinister music plays]
[dramatic music playing]
Mother, please bless us
so that I fulfil Father's promise
and your wish
wholeheartedly and to the best of my ability.
[melancholic music playing]
Rama, please come.
Let's go, Sita.
