Nitesh Tiwari’s ‘Ramayana’ has been released today, which is not limited to just grand visuals, huge sets and powerful action, but the film also has many such scenes which bring out the emotional side of the story very beautifully. At some places, through the ten heads of Ravana, we get a glimpse of the different thoughts and ego going on within him, while at some places, Jatayu’s sacrifice brings tears to the eyes. Be it the face to face between Ram and Parashuram or the farewell from Ayodhya during the exile, there are some scenes in the film which touch the audience deeply. Let us know seven such special scenes of ‘Ramayana’, which will sometimes make you emotional and sometimes fill you with thrill.
1. Different advice from the ten heads of Ravana, a storm of many thoughts in the same mind.
The scene showing the ten heads of Ravana in the film is very interesting and impressive. In this scene, Ravana is seen sitting in the middle and his ten heads appear one after the other in different forms. Every head has its own voice and its own thinking. Someone gives him one kind of advice, while someone instigates him in another direction. All these voices together reflect the conflict of thoughts going on within Ravana and his ego. What makes this sequence special is the fast pace of the scene and the distinct style of each head. The ten heads of Ravana here reveal not only his power but also different aspects of his personality.
2. Jatayu’s last breaths and offering funeral pyre to the bird that was like Ram’s father.
Jatayu’s death scene is one of the most emotional moments of the film. While fighting with Ravana, Jatayu gets badly injured and falls into the forest. After some time Ram reaches him. Jatayu tells them the entire incident of Sita’s kidnapping and then breathes his last. After this the scene becomes even more emotional, when many birds reach there carrying wood. Considering Jatayu as his father, Ram himself performs his last rites and lights his funeral pyre. This scene shows the spirit of sacrifice, loyalty and relationships that can go beyond blood ties.
3. Jatayu’s struggle till his last breath to save Mother Sita
The battle scene between Jatayu and Ravana also wins hearts. When Ravana is leaving in the Pushpak Vimana after abducting Sita, Jatayu uses all his strength to stop him. He makes every possible effort to save Mother Sita. In one scene, Jatayu reaches Pushpak Vimana and sits down and extends his paw towards Sita, as if he wants to free her from the clutches of Ravana. But before he can succeed in his endeavor, Ravana attacks him. This struggle of Jatayu effectively shows his courage and respect for Sita.
4. Ram and Parashuram face to face, Vishnu incarnation identified amidst the whirlwind
The scene of the meeting of Ram and Parashuram is full of grandeur and thrill. On one hand, Ram’s marriage procession is returning to Ayodhya with Sita, while on the other hand, Parashuram’s entry takes place amidst a strong storm. After this a dialogue begins between the two, which makes the scene more impressive. Meanwhile, Parashurama throws his spear towards Rama, but Rama catches it in one fell swoop. Seeing this, Parashuram realizes that Ram standing in front of him is not an ordinary human being, but an incarnation of Vishnu himself. The moments of confrontation, dialogue and recognition throughout this scene keep the audience engaged.
5. Ram’s bravery in front of Khar-Dushan’s army, the attack of demons ended with one arrow
After Shurpanakha’s nose is cut off, Khar and Dushan arrive with their huge army to fight Ram. There comes a turning point during this war, when Ram, Sita and Lakshman retreat to the place where the hill ends and there is a deep ditch ahead. In such a situation, Ram takes a few steps back, leaving Sita and Lakshman safe. Then along with the mantra, an arrow is released from the bow, with which the rising whirlwind destroys the entire army of demons. During this time, Ram’s message also comes to the fore that as long as Ram is alive, no one can do any harm to Sita and Lakshman. This scene shows Rama’s bravery and determination to protect his loved ones.
6. Ram’s farewell during exile, his promise to Kaikeyi and Dasharatha’s brokenness.
The scene of Ram going on exile is full of emotions. Before leaving the palace, Ram takes a promise from Kaikeyi that when he returns, he will eat the first bite from her hands. After this, when Ram leaves Ayodhya, the public stands on the way to stop him. Then Sita comes forward and explains to the people that she is going with Ram to fulfill her wife’s duty and Lakshman Bhai is with him because of religion. She appeals to the rest of the people to stay in Ayodhya and take up the responsibility of it. Gradually people move out of the way and Ram’s chariot moves ahead. Then Dasharatha, coming from behind, seeing his son leaving, is unable to control his emotions and falls unconscious. This moment deeply brings out the pain of the father-son relationship.
7. Dasharatha’s last call and Ram’s sudden turn back while crossing the river.
The death scene of Dashrath is also going to shock the audience to the core. On one hand, Dasharatha is saddened that Ram is having to suffer the punishment for his sins. He is constantly worried about the condition of his son in the forest. On the other hand Ram is crossing the river. Meanwhile, Dasharatha calls out the name of Ram while taking his last breaths. As his voice echoes, in the next scene Ram suddenly looks back. It seems as if he has heard his father’s call from far away Ayodhya. This scene poignantly connects the father’s final moments and his separation from his son.
