Полицейский, его жена и его враг. Противоборство душ и тел. Все непросто. Кто прав, кто виноват? Решайте сами.

The film is a retelling of the story of Lord Rama, from his birth until his battle with Ravan at Sri Lanka.

Nikhil Siddharth and Swathi Reddy are back once again onscreen with Karthikeya. The mystery of the Subramanian Swamy temple which has remained closed for years is the crux of the movie. Local people in the village are curious why the temple has been locked up for years? The lead protagonists take the initiative to solve the mystery.

The film interprets a story from the Uttara Kanda of the epic poem Ramayana, where Rama sends his wife, Sita, to the jungle to satisfy his subjects. Sita is never actually seen in the film, but her virtual presence is compellingly evoked in the moods of the forest and the elements. The film retells the epic from a womens' liberationist perspective, and is about the tragedy of power and the sacrifices that adherence to dharma demands, including abandoning a chaste wife.

Following Bhagwan Shri Ram's 14 year exile, whereby he demolishes the evil empire of Lord Ravan, rescues his wife, Sita, and returns triumphantly home to Ayodhya to be crowned the King. Bhagwan Ram arranges for Sita to be placed on top a funeral pyre, and when she comes out unscathed with the Lord of Fire himself appearing and asking Bhagwan Ram to take Sita back as she is pure, and her presence has not only purified Ayodhya, but also Sri Lanka, as well as himself.

This special-effects laden film is based upon an episode from the Ramayana. Indrajit, son of Ravan, initiates an attack on Rama (Mane) and Lakshmana (Kulkarni) in which they are captured by Mahi (Kelkar). They escape with the assistance of Rama's disciple, the monkey-god Hanuman (Manajirao). The narrative foregrounds Chandrasena (Tarkhad), wife of Mahi, who reveres Rama but disapproves of the bacchanalian orgies and the celebration of liquor that is the norm in his kingdom. She helps resolve the stalemate of the battle when Mahi (who can duplicate himself and his dead soldiers) proves invincible, by revealing the secret formula that will kill her husband. In addition to the usual flying figures and magic arrows mandatory for a Ramayana mythological, there is an effective scene of a gigantic Hanuman picking up a miniaturized human figure.

Ravana (Niranjan Sharma) orders Maricha to turn into a deer to entice Sita (Sona Chatterjee) with the notion of kidnapping her. Rama (Trilok Kapoor), Lakshman (Prabhash Joshi) and Sita are in the Panchavati forest for their fourteen year exile. Espying the golden deer sent by Ravana to lure Rama away, Sita asks Rama to get it. On hearing a cry of pain she sends Lakshman after his brother thinking he’s hurt. Ravan comes in the guise of a hermit begging alms and makes Sita step over the Lakshman Rekha (line), Lakshman had drawn around their cottage for her safety, asking her not to step beyond it. In their search for Sita, Ram and Lakshman meet Hanuman (S. N. Tripathi) whom they help in the fight between Sugriva and Bali. Hanuman then helps in finding Sita. (Wikipedia)

На заре веков Богиня-мать породила нескольких Богов, и самым любимым был её первенец — Хастад. Он решил, что всё золото мира должно принадлежать ему, за что был повержен другими Богами и почти уничтожен, но Богиня-мать спасла его и поместила в своё чрево. С тех пор люди забыли падшего Бога, не ставили ему алтари и не возносили молитвы. Индия, начало XX века. Неподалеку от замшелой деревушки Тумбад живет внебрачный сын местного лорда по имени Винаяк. В их доме спит проклятая прабабка-ведьма, которую мать Винаяка должна кормить, чтобы та не проснулась и не съела детей, также ходят слухи, что где-то в этой местности хранятся несметные богатства. После смерти лорда мать вместе с сыном уезжает в большой город, взяв с него клятву никогда не возвращаться в Тумбад. Через несколько лет уже взрослый Винаяк приезжает в родные края с твёрдой уверенностью, что сокровища спрятаны в заброшенном замке почившего лорда.
