In the ancient land of Ayodhya, the Ramayana unfolds a critical chapter in the epic tale, marked by Lakshmana's perilous condition. During the fierce battle between Lord Rama and the demon king Ravana, Lakshmana, ever devoted to his elder brother, faced a formidable adversary. Meghnad, Ravana's valiant son, unleashed a powerful weapon that left Lakshmana unconscious and severely wounded on the battlefield.

As despair gripped the hearts of Rama and his allies, the need for a miraculous cure became evident. In this dire situation, the wise sage Vishwamitra suggested the only solution – the Sanjeevani herb, known for its life-restoring properties. However, the herb was located on the distant Dronagiri mountain in the Himalayas.

Rama, unable to leave Lakshmana's side, turned to Hanuman, the mighty monkey god known for his unwavering devotion and incredible strength. Hanuman, ever ready to serve Rama, embarked on a mission to retrieve the life-saving Sanjeevani herb.
