Nitesh Tiwari’s epic film Ramayana, starring Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi and Yash, has grossed more than Rs 663 crore worldwide within five days of its release, registering a strong run at the box office.
The film has earned Rs 413.90 crore in gross collections in India, including Rs 346.35 crore in net collections. Its overseas gross earnings have reached Rs 250 crore.
On Monday, the film collected Rs 107.50 crore in India from 23,911 shows, marking its first single-day collection above Rs 100 crore.
The Hindi version accounted for the largest share, generating Rs 87.25 crore from 19,786 shows. The Kannada version earned Rs 7.50 crore from 908 shows, while Telugu collections stood at Rs 6 crore from 1,606 shows.
The Tamil version contributed Rs 4 crore from 826 shows, followed by Malayalam with Rs 2.75 crore from 785 shows.
Ramayana opened with Rs 64.85 crore in India, followed by Rs 48.05 crore on Friday and Rs 69.80 crore on Saturday. Collections slipped to Rs 56.15 crore on Sunday across 21,770 shows.
Trade analyst Taran Adarsh had earlier predicted a significant improvement in business from Monday, with the start of Diwali festivities.
In an Instagram post on Sunday, he said Saturday had been the strongest day of the extended opening weekend, while Sunday’s collections slowed due to Lakshmi Puja and Diwali celebrations.
He expressed optimism about the film’s box-office prospects, pointing to strong advance bookings, positive audience feedback and the expected rise in collections from mass-market circuits during the festive period.
In comparison, Prabhas-starrer Adipurush (2023) opened with Rs 86.75 crore in India, outperforming Ramayana on its opening day.
However, Ramayana recorded slightly higher collections than Adipurush on the third day. While Adipurush earned Rs 10 crore in net collections on its fifth day, Ramayana crossed the Rs 100 crore mark in a single day.
Made on an estimated budget of Rs 4,000 crore, Ramayana is being billed as one of the most ambitious productions in Indian cinema.
Directed by Tiwari, the film also features Sunny Deol, Ravi Dubey and Lara Dutta, among others.
The production received extensive international promotion, including a special screening in Los Angeles on October 27.
