Sri Ram meets Bharat and is saddened to learn about King Dashrath's demise. Indra and Varun along with other gods are concerned that if Bharat succeeds in taking Sri Ram back to Ayodhaya, who will kill the tyrant Asur Ravan. Brahma assures them that Lord Vishnu has re-incarnated as Sri Ram to show the human beings the importance of the family values and to set an example of perfect human being. Sri Ram insists on honoring his father's word by not returning to Ayodhaya. Bharat takes Sri Ram's wooden sandals to place them on the throne, as a symbol that Sri Ram is still the ruler.
