One of the greatest epics, Ramayan, written by Valmiki, unravels the journey of Lord Rama, right from his marriage to Sita to the slaying of Ravana. Rama, the eldest son of King Dashratha, is the heir apparent to the throne of Ayodhya, but Dashratha is compelled by Kaikeyi to make her son Bharat the king. Kaikeyi further asks Dashratha to send Rama on exile for 14 years, so Rama willingly agrees. He leaves, accompanied by Sita and his younger brother Laxmana. However, when Bharat learns of his mother's viciousness, he goes to the jungle to persuade Rama to return to Ayodhya. But he comes back only with Rama's sandals that he places on the throne. Years later, Sita is abducted by Ravana, the King of Lanka. Rama, with the help of the Monkey God Hanuman and Laxmana, goes to Lanka to slay Ravana and bring back Sita.
