In some variations in the epic, Maya Sita, an illusion created by Agni, will take Sita's spot and is also abducted by Ravana and suffers his captivity, whilst the real Sita hides in the hearth. Some scriptures also mention her former birth as Vedavati, a girl Ravana tries to molest.[16] https://www.youtube.com/shorts/RRJOKXB8Nr4
