00:00Many years ago, a prince named Khans lived in the Mathura kingdom.
00:04He was very greedy and cunning and wanted to be the king,
00:08even though his father, Ugrasena, was the actual ruler.
00:12So, he imprisoned his father and became the king by deceit.
00:17It was difficult for the people of Mathura,
00:20as their new king was a very unfair and evil man.
00:24Khan's sister Devaki was to get married.
00:27Devaki would marry King Vasudev.
00:29Khans was happy because he thought Vasudev's kingdom would become his too.
00:34Once Devaki and King Vasudev were married,
00:37Khans decided that he would drive them home himself.
00:40As Khans sat down on the chariot to drive them home,
00:44he heard a divine voice that said,
00:46Evil Khans, your end is near.
00:49You don't know about it, but by marrying Devaki to King Vasudev,
00:54you have brought your death near.
00:56The eighth son that will be born to Devaki and Vasudev will kill you.
01:01Hearing the divine voice and what it said, Khans became very scared.
01:06But soon, his fear turned to anger.
01:09He decided to kill Devaki because if there was no mother,
01:12how could she give birth to a baby?
01:14So, he took out his sword to kill her.
01:17King Vasudev was horrified when he saw what Khans was about to do.
01:22He fell to his knees and begged Khans not to kill Devaki.
01:26Khans, please do not kill your sister.
01:29I will give you all the babies.
01:31Khans thought for a while and said,
01:33In that case, you will have to become my prisoners and live in my palace.
01:39Soon, Khans captured Devaki and Vasudev
01:42and put them in the dungeons of his palace prison.
01:45Each time Devaki gave birth to a baby in the dungeon,
01:48Khans would immediately kill it.
01:51Soon, he killed seven babies
01:53and did not think of how he was torturing his sister by killing her children.
01:58For the next nine years, Devaki had no more babies.
02:02Soon, she was about to give birth again.
02:06Khans was very scared now.
02:08Throughout the day, there was a terrible storm in Mathura.
02:11At midnight, the sun was born and everything grew quiet.
02:16Devaki was so happy and confused that she fainted
02:19while Vasudev could not stop looking at what was happening.
02:22The divine voice that had spoken to Khans earlier now spoke to Vasudev.
02:28Take your baby to the Gokul town headed by your friend Nand.
02:32Yashoda, his wife, has given birth to a baby girl.
02:37Exchange the babies and come back immediately with the girl.
02:40No one will know about the birth of your eighth son.
02:44Vasudev did as he was told.
02:46To his surprise, he found that the guards at the gates seemed asleep
02:50and the prison gates opened on their own.
02:53When he reached the river, he realized it was filled with big waves due to a storm.
02:58But the moment he stepped inside, the river became calm.
03:02Suddenly, he saw a huge black snake rise up from behind him.
03:07Vasudev was very scared and thought he would die along with the baby.
03:12But the snake spread itself over Vasudev like a hood to shield the baby from the rain.
03:18Soon Vasudev reached the town of Gokul, exchanged the babies and was back in prison.
03:24As soon as he placed the baby on the prison floor beside Devaki, it let out a cry.
03:29Khans came rushing in, ready to kill the eighth baby of Devaki.
03:34Devaki was unconscious all this time and it was only now that she returned to her senses.
03:40Khans was not ready to spare the baby.
03:43He loved himself more than anything else in the world.
03:47He snatched the baby and threw her against the prison wall, but the baby did not die.
03:52It flew up towards the prison ceiling and a bright light filled the prison.
03:57Once the light grew dimmer, Khans realized the baby had taken the form of Goddess Durga.
04:03Foolish Khans, she said.
04:05You cannot kill me and the one who will kill you is already born and alive.
04:10One day he will find you and kill you no matter what you do.
04:14Meanwhile, there was a lot of celebration in Gokul on the birth of the new baby.
04:19Sarpanch Nand named the baby Krishna and everyone came to offer blessings and gifts to the baby.
