'- We won't let you go, Shri Rama! - We won't let you go, Shri Rama!'
Your Majesty, I know
that even the subjects couldn't stop Prince Rama.
[Dasharatha straining]
Rama?
Prince Rama won't stop.
[mellow music playing]
- [mumbling] - Sita?
You want me to stop Devi Sita!
Okay. Okay, Your Majesty.
Your Majesty!
Go away!
You Majesty, trust me.
Everything will be fine.
As soon as Bharata is proclaimed the prince,
the subjects will quieten.
I just came here to inform you
that I'm...
I'm going to call for Bharata from Kekeya.
[vocalising]
- [stuttering] Please go. - Yes.
[dramatic music playing]
Yes, Your Majesty.
Queen Kaikeyi.
His Majesty couldn't say it in words
but his expressions revealed it.
He wishes for the subjects to rebel
and stop Rama somehow.
Sometimes we take the wrong steps in life
and we realise it sooner or later.
After realising that one took the wrong step,
one should backtrack.
Devi, please have mercy on the king.
A queen is like a mother to her subjects.
Please try to empathise with them like a mother.
Devi, please change your decision.
A minister's job
is to advice
and consult
but only
when they are asked.
Make arrangements to bring Bharata back.
The subjects will rebel.
Then you must prevent it.
Please leave.
Complete your task.
[dramatic music playing]
Rama, please don't go.
Lord, please don't go.
I plead with you not to go.
- Shri Rama, please don't go. - Please don't go.
- Please don't go.
I request all of you
to let me go.
Shri Rama, please don't go.
We request you.
Please don't leave us!
[song playing]
[theme song playing]
Shri Rama, please don't go.
These people
won't let us go.
Rama, they will continue
to follow us to the forest.
[horses snorting]
Minister,
I knew you would come and help us during our journey of duty.
My subjects wouldn't let me go!
I'll have to go away from them!
[gloomy music playing]
[song playing]
Minister,
we must cross Ayodhya's border
so that the subjects can't follow us.
[gloomy music playing]
[pensive song playing]
Rama!
[Dasharatha groaning]
Your Majesty!
- Your Majesty! - [Dasharatha groaning]
Lord, please calm down. Please!
- Lord, please calm down. - Rama!
- Lord, please relax! Lord!
Your Majesty, please relax.
Rama boarded the chariot
driven by Sumantra.
Sumantra went with him.
I hope
Sumantra's consultation
and our absence will help Rama understand
what we failed to make him understand.
[vocalising]
[horses neighing]
On the one hand, Shri Rama
sacrificed everything
to fulfil the promises made by his father
and to fulfil his duty.
However,
he ruled the hearts
of the subjects of Ayodhya
because of his selfless love and compassion.
On the other hand, Vishrava's son and the king of Lanka, Ravana
wanted to rule the world
by instilling fear and insecurity in everyone
instead of compassion and love.
Didn't Ravana's rule have an obstacle?
Goddess, there was surely an obstacle.
Ravana's brother-in-law
and Shurpanakha's husband.
Vidyutjihva!
Ravana's enmity with Vidyutjihva was such
that Ravana didn't just want to punish him,
he wanted to kill him!
The reason being this time
Ravana's pride received a setback.
[conch-shell playing]
'Ravana's honour earned in thousands of years'
'was shattered.'
'It could be compensated'
'only by killing Vidyutjihva.'
[mantra chanting]
News is like odour.
It can be felt
without hearing and seeing.
Maricha, tell me.
What's the bad news?
The news is
Vidyutjihva took shelter in Patala.
Your Majesty, it's impossible to catch him
until he decides to come out.
"Patala!"
Lord Brahma has given away Patala
to serpents, rakshasas and kalakeyas.
Ravana, it's protected by Maya and mantras.
The magical doors of Patala
don't open for the uninvited.
Please don't be so heartless.
He is your brother-in-law after all.
I agree that he made a mistake
but please understand the value of a relationship.
Mercy and forgiveness
are greater than vengeance.
Ravana,
even though I don't like him much,
I don't have
the courage to devalue my relationship with him.
He is the father to my son.
Is your husband's life
greater than your brother's respect and honour?
No, Ravana.
That's not true.
Then why are you confused?
I got you married to Vidyutjihva.
I can get another suitor for you in the future.
Shurpanakha, you are the sister of the king of Lanka.
Please don't sully
your brother's name for a momentary attachment.
Do you get it?
Yes. Yes, Ravana. Please forgive me.
Bloodshed won't achieve anything.
Meghanada's wife,
our daughter-in-law Sulochana hails from Patala.
We'll ask Sulochana to inform him to surrender.
Where is Meghanada?
Why do you need Meghanada?
That's not the answer to my question.
[tense music plays]
Where is Meghanada?
He is with Guru Shukracharya practising warfare.
[dramatic music playing]
Wonderful.
Meghanada is a true warrior.
'He has become Indrajit after defeating Indra.'
'There's no warrior'
'like him in the entire world.'
But still, he isn't satisfied.
[conch-shell playing]
He keeps trying
to progress.
[soldiers shouting]
Maricha!
Please bring my son to me.
Yes, Your Majesty.
[dramatic music playing]
[soldiers shouting]
[wind whooshing]
- [arrow swishing] - [electricity surging]
'Valorous Meghanada, well done!'
You have my blessings.
Guru Shukracharya, it's the result of your teachings and blessings.
Meghanada, you are too generous.
The truth is nobody gets
more than they deserve.
I'm confident
that you are the most valorous warrior
among the asuras
other than King Bali.
Only you
can establish the asura rule in this world.
Guru, I'll feel blessed if I establish the asura rule
everywhere in this world.
[dramatic music playing]
I don't know for how long these people will follow us.
Rama, Ayodhya's subjects won't let their favourite prince leave easily.
[suspenseful music playing]
Please stop! Shri Rama, please stop!
Please stop! Please don't go.
[suspenseful music playing]
Please clear my way.
I'm duty-bound.
I can't stay back.
Shri Rama, we aren't stopping you from fulfilling your duty.
However, let us fulfil our duty.
I'm overwhelmed to see your affection and love.
However, a kingdom's
biggest asset is its subjects.
The rightful place for the subjects is their kingdom.
My father, King Dasharatha
and the future king Bharata need your support.
They'd need your assistance.
- We'll go with you! - We'll accompany you!
Your love is unparalleled.
However, the path of duty
requires one to let go of love.
Please don't make our journey difficult.
I request all of you
to not become the obstacle of Shri Rama's path.
Devi, we aren't here to become a hurdle.
We want to be your co-travellers.
Won't I flout my duty
by watching my subjects in pain?
It's a 14-year exile.
Our Rama left the comforts of a palace
to endure suffering in the forest.
This thought is making us feel guilty and ashamed.
We can't live without our Rama.
Our Ayodhya is the place where our Rama resides.
We'll go into the forest with our Rama.
[dramatic music playing]
You will surely be blessed enough
to achieve this feat.
Do you know why?
Your penance was extremely tough.
Letting go of pride
and treading the path of duty
is the toughest job.
You have already achieved
this impossible feat.
I tested you
and you succeeded.
[sweeping music playing]
You overpowered deities.
Even though you are extremely powerful,
you don't have a hint of arrogance.
You didn't forsake the path of duty.
You could have easily got rid
of the deities who are your enemies.
However, you didn't kill them.
Instead,
you made them unconscious.
Meghanada, I'm proud of you.
Congratulations to you.
Today you earned another powerful weapon,
Nagpash.
[dramatic music playing]
Thank you, Gurudev!
[intriguing music plays]
Hail Asuracharya!
The king of Lanka has called for Prince Meghanada.
[adventurous music playing]
