...her son's life happy?

What games she didn't play?

And there's you! A mother who

spoilt her own son's future

"Who's out to make him

a beggar, like an idiot!"

"You're not Bharat's mother.

You're heartless, sinful, murderess!"

"Stop it, Manthara!

Let it be for now... "

Let it be? How can I?

Bharat has played in my lap

"I've sung lullabies to him.

Caressed him, cajoled him"

How can I see him beg

from door to door? I can't!

Before that I'll bang my head

against a wall and kill myself!

Bharat... dear Bharat

I've given birth to Bharat.

But you're his true mother

You're willing to die for him

But I can't do anything now

What can happen now anyway?

"If you wish, anything can happen.

- How?"

"- Manthara...

- Yes, your Majesty?"

- Where's Kaikayi?

- She's angry!

"Angry? Why? What's the matter?

- I don't know, Sire"

My dear Queen...

you and in this mood?

"- Come on, get up now.

- Don't touch me!"

Not touch you? But why?

- You've always cheated me

You've taken advantage of

my naivety

Somebody has been

poisoning your ears!

No, opening them!"

"What are you saying, my love?

- Love?"

"You claim, I'm your favorite

and love somebody else?"

But when have I not

given in to your wishes?

What of those 2 promises you gave?

- When did you ask?

I'll ask now.

- Why just two? Ask for four!

What if you back out?

- Kaikayi!

I'm a Raghuvanshi.

- That's what I mean

Think it over again.

- I've thought it over

"If you don't believe it,

I'll swear on my beloved Rama... "

Today I'll give you

whatever you ask for

My first wish is...

I want Bharat to be the King

Bharat to be the King?

- Why? Got scared?

I had planned to do the same.

But...

...you only forced me to

name Rama as my heir

And now these preparations...

these celebrations...

Let them go on. Call Bharat

and proclaim him the King

Or are you breaking the promise?

- Not at all

Bharat shall be the King.

- And what about my second promise?

I'll fulfill that too

Send Rama in exile for 14 years.

In exile for 14 years?!

Mother!

"Mother, what's all this?

What's wrong with you?"

Have I offended you?

Has anyone insulted you?

"Why this silence, mother?

Tell me. Say something, mother"

Rama...

Rama...

Father!

"What's ailing him, mother?

What's wrong?"

"Tell me, mother. Tell me!

- That's why you're called here"

Then tell me quickly.

- I've taken two promises from him

Promises?

- Yes. My first promise is...

Bharat be crowned as the King.

What can be more wonderful.

By relieving me of this burden...

"... you've done me a

great favour, mother"

He's unhappy with my second promise.

- What's it?

"It's very severe.

- Tell me, mother. "

You're to be exiled for 14 years

Is that all? He's in a shock

over such a small matter?

"Father, 14 years are hardly anything.

- No son, no. "

"I can't live without you

even for a moment, son"

"Don't leave me, my son.

Don't go... please"

"Life is useless without an ideal.

Being your son, if I can't... "

"... keep a promise given by you,

and fulfill mother's wish... "

...then I'm not worthy

to be your son

Rama...

"... the earlier you leave,

the better for him"

Don't go, son... "

Rama, you and here?"

Your father must be waiting

for you and Kaikayi must be...

...dying to see the

crown on your head

True. She has crowned me

as the King of the whole world

And why not? She's responsible

for this auspicious moment

Really. Today is certainly

the most auspicious day for me

Bless me, dear mother"

The burden that will be put

on your shoulders today...

May God assist you to bear it.

And may you achieve your world fame

Hey! Forgotten your way

because you're so happy?

"No, mother.

I'm going in the right direction"

"Then, why are you going that way?

- To remove these clothes, ofcourse"

What for?

- To rule this world...

"one doesn't need these clothes,

nor these ornaments"

Neither power nor the army

"Rama, what nonsense is this?

- It's the truth"

I'm going to do penance for 14 years.

- What! Where?

In the forest.

- Forest?

Have you gone mad?

What are you saying?

Where are you going?

- I'm obeying father's orders...

...and going in exile for 14 years

"Rama, why this exile for you

instead of the crown?"

I didn't ask him that.

And why should I?

To obey him is my duty

It's your duty to obey me too.

I order you not to go to the exile

A mother has more right on

her son than the father

Kaikayi is my mother too.

She too wishes the same

That I go in exile

for 14 years!

"- Sita...

- Dear husband, I'll also go with you"

You'll not be able to bear

the hard life in the jungle

"I'll bear it all, but I won't be

able to bear our separation"

You'll learn as time goes by.

- That's what I mean

Your sweet smile will help me

to forget all my hardships

I'll sit at your feet

and find my heaven there

But... Kaikayi will

not accept this

"Suppose she says, your going with me

breaks father's promise to her... "

"Then what do I say to her?

- In that case, you must take me"

Else the promise will be broken.

- Really? How?

A wife is a husband's better half

I'm your better-half too.

Will you obey your mother...

Rama took Sita with him

to lessen his own sorrows

"If you don't take me along,

the same people will say... "

"Sita stood by him in his good

times, but when he went in exile... "

...she didn't go with him

Will you let me be abused like this?

- Never

- Dear husband...

- Sita...

Hurry and get Rama.

We'll miss the auspicious hour

"Why has the earth

become so hard... "

And the sky so misty

One moment back it was the crown

And the next, the exile"

On one hand it was father's word

And a victorious step-mom's trick

And on the other, there was... "

the huge kingdom of Ayodhya

Rama, history will never forget... "

...your eternal sacrifice

You left the edens of palaces

and accepted exile ion a jungle

"Please stop...

My dear Rama"

"My yearning eyes...

call out to you"

Please wait, dear Rama"

Let me see you for a moment

and have an eyeful of you

"So wait...

Wait, dear Rama"

"Wait...

- My dear Rama"

Life was going on happily

We lit lamps in every house

Who struck this fatal blow...

...and shattered our dreams thus?

Our songs of hope...

By walking away like this...

"you've put a full-stop

on our songs of hope"

"Wait...

So wait, dear exiled Rama"

"- Please wait.

- My dear Rama"

"You're taking away the grandeur

of Raghuvansh lineage"

"And also the smile from

everybody's lips here"

You're not just leaving Ayodhya

"you're taking her

very life with you"

Does hope hide disappointment...

Is joy another name for sorrow?

"Wait...

Wait, dear exiled Rama"

"Wait...

- My dear Rama"

Stop the chariot!

You may take the chariot back

How can I leave you like this?

If the people of Ayodhya...

"... and the King ask me,

Where is our Rama?"

What do I tell them?

Lord Rama... Please...

Kevatraj...

- There they go again!

What is it?
