While Hanuman is on his way to Lanka, he gets tired and learns of a mountain that escaped from Indra, when he was clipping the wings of mountains. Hanuman seeks this mountain and uses it as a rest area. When he continues his journey, he comes across one of the rakshasi, who eats Hanuman whole.

Hanuman arrives in Lanka and takes the form of a cat and fights Lanka, who finally realizes this is the end of a curse. Then, he continues to look for Sita, but when he gets in trouble, his father, Vayu helps him come across the Ashoka grove. He sees Ravana trying to talk to her, but Sita just refuses to talk to him. Ravana tells his guards to go ahead a kill her, but a nice rakshasi had a dream of Rama and Lanka's destruction saves her.
When Hanuman gets a chance, he goes over to Sita and talks to her all about Rama and takes a message to give to Rama.When leaving, Hanuman due to his character, decided to create some mischief. So he pulls out the lawn and breaks a temple. He even kills Jambumali, and some royal guards. He finally gets captured by Indrajit, due to the boon given by Shiva.

Hanuman sets all of Lanka on fire and before leaving checks on Sita one more time, who gives him a pearl to take back to Rama. He then goes back to Kishkindha and reports his findings to Rama, who his enlightened to hear this.
