All right, Hanuman.
Starting today, we go our separate ways!
[thunder rumbling]
[thunder breaking]
The ploy I wanted to use
has been carried out by destiny.
Hanuman's strongest support
has been snatched from him.
[chortling]
Now, neither will Mahadeva stand in my way,
nor will he
be able to help Hanuman.
If anyone obstructs my path,
then I,
Devraj Indra, the king of deities...
[thunder rumbling]
[Hanuman Chalisa playing]
Until my deity summons me,
his devotee will wait here!
[Hanuman Chalisa playing]
Why is Hanuman here?
[melancholic music playing]
[dramatic music playing]
Hanuman! What brought him here?
[thunder cracking]
[mellow music playing]
[melancholic music playing]
[conch shell playing]
"Shri Rama. Rama! Rama!"
If our Lord doesn't appear even after we pray,
then we must perform austerity.
Lord, until you summon me,
your name will help me wait for your response.
Lord, I'll continue my austerity!
"Shri Rama!"

[Chaupai playing]
- Run! - Run!
- Let's run! - [Chaupai playing]
[Chaupai playing]

Even after such heavy rain,
Rama's name written by Hanuman isn't washed away.
How is that possible?
Is it because of his devotion or some deception?
[poignant vocalising]
Rama.
Please call Hanuman inside.
No, Lakshmana.
Until I find the answer to Hanuman's question,
I can't face him.
I can't let his faith, trust,
and the power of his devotion
go to waste.
[thunder rumbling]
[screaming]
[grunting]
Please be careful.
You're burning. Please rest a little.
[mellow music playing]
Prince Rama, he won't go back or stop his austerity
until you meet him.
No.
I can't meet Hanuman.
This is not the right time to meet him.
Okay, Prince.
Lakshmana, if I had my way,
I'd bear Hanuman's suffering myself.
However,
I can't even find the answer to his question.
[poignant vocalising]
[grunting]
Rama, Hanuman is hurt both physically
and mentally.
He needs your guidance.
"Guidance!" How can I guide him
when I'm myself lost?
How can I be his guide?
"Guide!" Why didn't I think of it before?
Bharata, I must meet my guide.
Bharata, he'll put an end to my dilemma.
Gurus help us overcome every difficulty.
I'll go to my guru's ashram.
I'll leave through the back gate, and you all must wait here.
I don't want anyone to grow doubtful
or scared
after I'm gone.
Hanuman, I'll find the answer to your question.
But, Rama, where are you going?
Only a guru can help
illuminate the darkness.
[intriguing music plays]
[suspenseful music playing]
- Greetings, sages. - May God bless you.
I brought you Gurudev's message.
He asked you to begin the yajna by the time he arrives.
He also instructed you all to stay cautious,
as some evil forces may attack.
He'll try to reach the ashram as soon as possible.
I shall take my leave.
May God bless you.
You all heard the acharya's command,
so let's follow it.
Go and arrange wood for the 'yajna kunda'.
Let's start the yajna quickly. Come on.
[adventurous music playing]
Guru, what kind of attack is expected?
It'd be better to follow the acharya's command
instead of worrying about the future.
[dramatic music playing]
Light the fire, fast!
[wind whooshing]
[thunder cracking]
[chortling]
[wind whooshing]
[chortling]
Kashtasura!
Wonderful.
Even you know about me.
Since I, Kashtasura, have arrived,
you no longer need to appease the deities.
Now, only I will be appeased.
Stop the yajna, rituals, and offerings,
for I'll snatch
the purity from every piece of wood
and make it impure.
[chortling]
- Let's run! - Run! Run!
Huh. I'm serious
but he's busy playing games.
[lightning striking]
Anyone who tries to perform a yajna
will meet this end.
[wind howling]
[mellow music playing]
[grunting]
[dramatic music playing]
'Please just tell me this.'
'Why didn't my mother return, even after you reassured me?'
'Shri Rama, please help me meet my mother.'
'Shri Rama, I can't live without my mother.'
'I can't!'
'Please help me meet my mother, Lord.'
[tense music plays]
What happened here?
Gurudev, are you all right? Please drink water.
Greetings, sage.
How did this happen?
[dramatic music playing]
[horses neighing]
Hey! Be careful!
What happened, Charioteer? Why do you appear dishevelled?
At Sage Vashishtha's ashram...
What happened to the prince? Is he all right?
Please move aside!
[suspenseful music playing]
[footsteps approaching]
Now tell us. Where is Shri Rama?
What happened to him?
Soldier, where is Rama? What happened to him?
Where is he?
Greetings, Your Highness. He went to meet Acharya Vashishtha.
'When we arrived at his ashram, everything was already destroyed.'
[intense music plays]
It seemed that there was an apocalypse.
'Then evil Kashtasura used his deceptive powers'
'to make all the sages disappear.'
'He warned us before leaving'
'that he'd sacrifice all the sages.'
'He left us behind'
'to inform everyone'
'about the incident.'
'He just wanted us to inform everyone about his atrocities.'
'Anyone who performs the yajna here'
'will definitely be killed!'
'He'll abduct them.'
'Prince, please go back.'
'This place is unsafe.'
'Prince, let's go back.'
'Raghukul's tradition is to find solutions to problems,'
'not to escape them!'
'Ayodhya protects this ashram!'
'And I'm here as Ayodhya's representative.'
'Gurudev said that this yajna is imperative.'
'So, this yajna must be completed.'
'What if Kashtasura returns?'
'When he comes,'
'I'll surrender myself to him.'
'Then I'll bring back the missing sages with me.'
[motivational music playing]
'Prince, will you make such a huge sacrifice for us?'
'Because protecting righteousness and knowledge'
'is a tradition in Ayodhya!'
'The penance of sages'
'spread righteousness!'
'Their knowledge brought about justice.'
'Their penance paved the way for truth,'
'peace, and order.'
'My sacrifice for the sages is nothing in comparison!'
[vocalising]
'Charioteer, please don't'
'endanger your life because of me.'
'Please wait for me outside.'
'Sage, please begin the yajna.'
'I, the descendant of Raghukul, will protect you.'
'Sure.'
[suspenseful music playing]
[ominous music plays]
'Didn't you sages get my point?'
[tense music plays]
[adventurous music playing]
'Prince! Prince Rama!'
[intense music plays]
I tried to search for him,
but I couldn't find where the asuras took him.
Rama! Rama, I'm coming for you.
Kausalya!
Please get a grip on yourself.
Sumitra, please take her inside.
Okay. Let's go inside.
[dramatic music playing]
The entire country is in danger, not just Rama.
Soldiers, send all the platoons
to Guru Vashishtha's ashram
immediately.
And send a messenger to Kashi
to inform King Dasharatha.
Mother, let me go to the ashram along with the soldiers.
No way!
Why will you go there?
You had a narrow escape just a few days back.
Please don't endanger your life again.
If anyone must go, it should be this vanara.
He's the one who caused everything.
What are you saying?
I'm telling the truth.
Please ask Lakshmana.
Why did Rama go to Vashishtha's ashram without informing us?
What was the urgency?
Lakshmana.
Mother, actually,
Rama went to ask Guru Vashishtha how to bring Hanuman's mother back.
What? Did my Lord go to find a way to bring Mother back?
Since he entered Ayodhya,
we've been in problems.
[poignant vocalising]
I'm sure he's the one who sent that asura.
Kishkindha is near the Dandaka forest, home to many asuras.
That's his kingdom.
Lord! Lord is in danger!
I must go!
I must go immediately!
[thunder breaking]
Now that he's exposed, he's trying to escape.
No, Mother. That's not true.
Shri Rama is my deity.
Mother, why would I harm him?
Let me go, Mother. Lord needs me right now.
Enough! He's pretending to support Rama.
Ayodhya's army and we all can protect Rama.
No one needs you here,
let alone him.
Arrest him immediately!
Otherwise, his antics will snowball into a major setback.
We don't know where Rama is,
but spare a thought about everyone who's still here.
Let me go, Mother. Let me find my Lord.
Manthara is right!
Everything happened because of this vanara.
We've been facing problems ever since this vanara came.
He should be captured!
- Yes, he should be imprisoned. - Yes, he should be captured.
- Yes, he should be captured.
Please try to understand. My Lord is in danger.
Let me go and help him.
Just imprison him!
He is making excuses to escape.
- Yes, he should be imprisoned. - Yes, he should be imprisoned.
- Yes, he should be captured.
[intense music plays]
'Please move over!'
Move aside. Let me go. Come on.
Brother Bhola.
Brother Bhola, please help me.
Tell them that my devotion is true
and that I'm Shri Rama's ardent devotee.
I just want to help Rama.
I revered him wholeheartedly.
Brother Bhola, please speak up!
Brother Bhola, tell them that my devotion is true.
It's not a pretence. Please tell them!
All right. I'll speak, Chote.
At least give me a chance to speak.
[intense music plays]
I believe
that Mother Manthara
is absolutely right!
[thunder breaking]
