The much-anticipated cinematic adaptation of Ramayana, featuring Ranbir Kapoor and Yash, has completely dominated the box office since arriving in theatres. Drawing massive crowds from its very first day, the movie has continuously shattered existing box office records. Having already crossed the magical six-hundred-crore milestone across India within its first nine days, the latest figures for its tenth day have now been officially recorded.
Although a minor dip was observed on the second day due to it being a non-holiday right before the weekend, the movie received an immense boost from the extended holiday period surrounding Diwali. Monday and Tuesday witnessed historic collection figures on the box office charts, cementing the film's dominance. Trade tracking data indicates that audience enthusiasm has remained exceptionally high throughout its theatrical run.
According to the latest data from trade platform Sacnilk, the film raked in a massive 72.90 crore rupees on Saturday, marking its tenth day, up to 11 pm. Benefiting heavily from its second weekend, the daily collection registered an impressive surge of 48.6 percent compared to the previous day. This brings the cumulative domestic collection of Ramayana to a staggering 685.60 crore rupees.
With this phenomenal financial performance, Ramayana has officially surpassed the lifetime domestic earnings of major blockbusters, including Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan at 643.87 crore rupees and Rajkummar Rao's Stree 2 at 625.27 crore rupees. The feature had already overtaken the total lifetime collections of Pathaan and Animal earlier in its run.
The monumental success of the project was foreshadowed by its advance bookings, which opened fifteen days prior to its theatrical debut on the auspicious occasion of Dussehra. Before even premiering on the big screen, the title managed to sell tickets worth 200 crore rupees globally. Upon release, it opened to 64.85 crore rupees domestically, securing its place as the fourth-highest opening day earner in Bollywood history.
Continuing this unstoppable momentum, the epic feature entered the elite 500-crore club in India by Wednesday. The narrative depicts the legendary battle between Lord Vishnu's avatar Lord Rama and the demon king Ravana, triggered by the abduction of Sita. Ranbir Kapoor portrays Lord Rama in the feature, while Yash takes on the role of Ravana.
Produced collaboratively by Namit Malhotra's Prime Focus Studios, DNEG, and Yash's Monster Mind Creations, the overarching narrative has been split into two distinct parts. The star-studded cast features Sai Pallavi as Sita, Ravi Dubey as Lakshmana, Arun Govil as King Dasharatha, and Lara Dutta as Kaikeyi, alongside Rakul Preet Singh portraying Shurpanakha.
The first installment of Ramayana premiered in theatres globally on November 5, 2026, while the filmmakers have scheduled the release of the second part for the auspicious occasion of Diwali in 2028. The direction for both cinematic chapters has been led by Nitesh Tiwari.
