Make sure

Hello teachers,

Please tell me are these sentences correct?

1- The lion asked Shyamu to make sure that no gold coin should fall down.
2- The lion asked Shyamu ''Make sure that no gold coin falls down.''
3- The lion asked Shyamu to make sure that no gold coin falls down.

Sir, Here reporting verb is in past so should I use past tense in reported speech too?

like, The lion asked Shyamu to make sure that no gold coin fell down.

please help me I am confused.

Could you please tell me is this sentence correct ?
When his punishment got over his uncle released him.

Thanks
