Part two starts with Nina in New York and Dave emailing her to not return to India. She is heart broken and lets out a loud scream.
The intro to the second part is of a girl dancing with some crazy effects going on around her. Definitely don't recommend someone that is prone to seizures to watch this part. I think it's pretty cool though! Very colorful and trippy. My mom walked in on me while I was watching this part and she gave me a strange look.
Sita reveals that she is pregnant and the people in his kingdom do not respect him because she slept in another mans house. He ends up banishing her to gain the respect of his people. Rama commands his brother to banish his wife, Sita, who is pregnant back to the forest. In the blues song Sita is depicted to be very pregnant and I honestly cannot believe that he would banish her. How is she going to survive? She is going to be so helpless the final weeks of her pregnancy. Even when she does have her babies she is going to be really weak and will probably have trouble keeping herself and the babies alive.
Nina and Sita share something in common. They were sent away and dumped by their lovers who they adored so much. In the next blues song she sings it shows a bunch of animals kissing or intimate things. Then presumably the male leaves and they turn into a blue color just like Sita who is full of sadness.
Sitas children have a teacher that teach them to praise Rama.
Rama encounters his family in the forest and wants his sons to come live with him. Then requests Sita to show his purity. She asks mother earth to take her back in the her womb if she is pure.
