Indrajit, son of Ravana captures Hanuman by using Brahmastra though Hanuman is not necessarily bound by that. Hanuman advises Ravana to release Sita in his own interest as otherwise he will be annihilated by the great Rama. Ravana refuses and punishes Hanuman by ordering his solders to lit re to his tail. Hanuman uses this re to engulf Lanka in ames. Hanuman after crossing the ocean gets back to Kishkinda. Hanuman hands over the jewel of her head given to him by Sita to be given to Rama.
