Episode 05 - Sita's Swayamvar

Ram and Sita get attracted towards each other. The next day, many kings arrive for Sita's 'swayamvar' and try carrying the Shiv Dhanush. But they all fail. Then, Vishwamitra requests Ram to lift the Dhanush. Sita prays to Goddess Parvati and promises to sacrifice 14 years of her life if Ram succeeds in lifting the Dhanush. And much to her happiness, Ram lifts the Dhanush and ties a string to it. Parashuram, the sixth incarnation of Lord Vishnu gets angry as the Dhanush breaks.
