In the eighth episode of Ramayan, Rama successfully strings the unlifted bow and breaks it, winning the Swayamvar competition and earning the right to marry Sita. The episode begins with a celebration of Rama's victory, as he is honored with a Jai Mala ceremony and garlanded by Janak and the other dignitaries.

As preparations are made for Rama and Sita's wedding, Rama's father King Dasharath visits Janak's palace with his wives and retinue. However, his arrival is overshadowed by the news of a terrible omen: Dasharath has had a nightmare in which he sees Rama leaving Ayodhya and entering into the forest. The king is deeply disturbed by this vision and seeks counsel from his advisors, who warn him of an impending danger to Rama's life.

Despite these ominous signs, Rama and Sita are formally engaged in a ceremony where they exchange garlands and are blessed by the assembled gods and sages. The episode ends on a cliffhanger, as a mysterious figure appears in the crowd and threatens to disrupt the wedding ceremony.

As the eighth episode of the Ramayan TV show, this installment builds on the previous episode's dramatic events and sets the stage for even greater conflicts and challenges. It also highlights the depth of Rama and Sita's love and their commitment to each other, despite the obstacles they will soon face.
