Praise be to Lord Brahma!
[jingling] Praise be to Lord Brahma!
[music playing]
Praise be to Lord Brahma!
Menaka!
To distract him
these sounds are not of any effect.
Yes, Urvashi.
There's only one option now.
We will have to try harder to mesmerise him.
Praise be to Lord Brahma!
[footsteps]
Urvashi, Menaka!
Enough!
You have been unsuccessful too.
Using power is the only way out.
Praise be to Lord Brahma!
Lord Agni.
Surround him
so that the heat distracts him.
Praise be to Lord Brahma!
[razzling]
Praise be to Lord Brahma!
[music playing]
Praise be to Lord Brahma!
He is an illusionist! Before starting the meditation
he created a safety circle around himself.
Lord Indra!
No matter how fierce the safety circle is
it can't withstand my power.
[music playing]
Praise be to Lord Brahma!
[music playing]
Water is the medium of destruction.
When the creation is in its last leg
water becomes the medium of destruction.
Now Hiranyakashyap will judge
whether my powers are greater than his meditation.
[music playing]
'His meditative powers have created a safety net around him.'
'It's preventing our attacks on him.'
Praise be to Lord Brahma!
O, Lord Shiva!
Please save my husband.
May his penance succeed.
So that he returns to me safely.
O, Lord. Guard the baby in my womb.
Protect him.
Grant him a good life.
[music playing]
[song playing]
Lord!
Praise be to Lord Brahma!
Lord Indra.
We tried our powers
but we couldn't distract him.
If this continues, his powers shall increase.
What if he succeeds in his penance?
Before he succeeds
we will turn him into dust.
[music playing]
He will become so restless
that his body will become dysfunctional, and soon
he shall die. Not just that
I will make sure that after his death
nobody can avenge his death.
But, Lord, what will you do?
Hiranyakashyap's wife
the queen of demons, Lilavati, I will abduct her.
[music playing]
And then, I will kill her son
and end the lineage of demons.
Killing a child in the womb?
This is cruel.
When a mother realises that her child is in trouble
it causes her so much pain
I understand that.
Such cruelty is an attribute of the demons, but
how can Lord Indra do that?
You're right.
Whether a demon or goddess
an animal or human
a mother is the same.
She loves her children equally.
So, a mother
when deprived of her unborn child
is the biggest sin of all.
And Lord Indra
because of his insecurity
and to hold on to his position as the ruler of Swargalok
had forgotten his principles.
[music playing]
What happened after, Goddess?
'If I'm unable to introduce my child to his father'
'what can be more unfortunate?'
Please show me mercy, Lord.
Before it leaves my womb to enter this world
please send my husband back safely before that.
Queen, there's a sage here to meet you.
[music playing]
Salutations, Sage!
God bless you, Queen.
Please come.
I'll make arrangements for a feast.
But, today, I'm not here
to feast but the world needs you.
Tell me, Sage.
For the betterment of this world, if I'm required to lay my life
then I shall gladly do it.
We don't need your life, Queen.
Give me your son.
[music playing]
It can't happen.
It's not my personal property.
I don't have the right to sacrifice it, Sage.
You're breaking your promise, Queen.
But, you must understand that
I can't make such a big decision without consulting my husband.
You will be able to consult him only when your husband
returns safely to you. That won't happen.
[music playing]
His arrogance is compelling him to undergo a penance
which shall never be successful.
He wishes to be immortal
But he will die while meditating.
No!
[music playing]
Such harsh words!
Expecting death during a penance.
You're not a sage.
You're surely an impressionist.
An ill-wisher of my husband
you're the enemy of the demon clan.
Show yourself!
Before a devoted wife curses you
show yourself to me.
[music playing]
Lord Indra!
You're my husband's brother.
My unborn child
your innocent nephew, do you wish to kill him?
Think a little.
Show some mercy, Lord Indra.
How has this innocent child harmed you?
Not yet. But soon, he will.
Plants that grow up to be perilous trees
must be nipped in the bud.
If you don't hand your child to me
then I will snatch him.
[laughs]
I will abduct you.
[music playing]
It's a sin!
Soldiers, captivate him!
[thudding]
[laughs]
Who will captivate me?
Your demon soldiers are either dead or hurt.
There's nobody here to use a weapon too.
But, it's not my mistake.
It's your husband's.
After Hiranyaksh's death, he shouldn't have left his
kingdom unprotected.
[laughs]
By attacking a helpless woman
are you trying to establish your manhood?
Lord Vayu, you wish to be worshipped.
You all wish to be worshipped, right?
I wish to rekindle your divinity.
If you captivate a woman by force today
the world will hate you all.
Enough! You've spoken enough.
Lord Vayu.
End this game.
[music playing]
[song playing]
[music playing]
Such a horrendous act!
But, how can the gods do this?
And how did the Lord allow them to be so disgraceful?
He didn't allow them.
To stop Lord Indra from doing further atrocities
Sage Narada reached there immediately.
Listen, servants. Take her with me.
Come on!
Stop, Lord Indra!
[music playing]
Abducting a pregnant woman is not suited to your character.
Yet, I must do it.
After the delivery
I will have to kill her newborn too.
To establish eternal peace in this creation
this is the only way to stop injustice from breeding.
After killing the child in her womb
the destruction of the demon clan shall be possible.
But, Hiranyakashyap must die.
He's still alive, Lord Indra.
While meditating, even if the gods community attacks him
he won't die.
[music playing]
Because of his actions in past life
he will be killed by Lord Vishnu only.
That's his fortune.
So, if you
kill this newborn, remember that
on his brother's death,
he is undergoing such a rigorous penance.
On his son's death, he will be more determined.
[music playing]
Even the queen, Lilavati is a devoted wife.
If she curses you
then before your dream of destroying the demon clan comes true
the god's clan might get wiped out.
What are you saying, Sage Narada?
Give me a solution. What do I do?
[music playing]
Take her to my hermitage.
[music playing]
[chanting]
[conch blows]
Praise be to Lord Vishnu!
Making your devotee save mine and my child's life
I'm grateful to you, Lord Vishnu.
[music playing]
The one who has no bad attributes.
The immaculate and peaceful one.
The one who always remains composed at all times.
'As I go near them'
'he seems to be getting happier.'
Praise be to Lord Vishnu!
He is omniscient, most powerful
and has many forms.
He is the atom as well as the infinity.
I salute Lord Vishnu.
[music playing]
Ah!
'What's this sound?'
He has a universal form.
He is the controller of birth, life, and destruction.
He is the founder of this creation.
He is the supreme most being.
To that emperor of the world, the immortal one
Lord Vishnu, I offer my salutations.
Aye.
[music playing]
'This child is jumping on hearing the Lord's name.'
'I understood your plan, Lord.'
'I will support you in this endeavour.'
Praise be to Vishnu!
Aye.
Surely
whenever atrocities are on the rise
and evil people terrorise sages and saints
the world order is disturbed
and sinning becomes prevalent,
Lord Vishnu is reincarnated
and by punishing evil people
they reinstate order
and destroy injustice.
[music playing]
Praise be to Lord Vishnu!
Leelavati and her unborn son
were drawn to Lord Vishnu.
On the other hand, Hiranyakashyap's penance
was on the verge of completion.
Praise be to Lord Brahma!
I'm pleased with your devotion.
Open your eyes.
Ask me for a boon.
There's only one motive for spiritual practice
and one goal of devotion
and I have only one wish.
Lord Brahma, grant me immortality.
Yes, I need the boon of immortality.
Hiranyakashyap had become arrogant over his immortality.
On the other hand,
the destruction of that arrogance
a form of Lord Vishnu had taken birth.
[screams]
Praise be to Lord Vishnu!
