Nitesh Tiwari's cinematic epic, Ramayana: Rise Of A Legend, has achieved a remarkable milestone, crossing the ₹800 crore mark globally in just six days. The film, starring Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, Sai Pallavi as Sita, and Yash as Ravana, has garnered ₹823.50 crore worldwide since its release on November 5, 2026.
Domestic and International Box Office Performance
The sixth day saw Ramayana: Rise Of A Legend add ₹94.10 crore nett to its India collection, bringing its domestic nett total to ₹440.45 crore. With an India gross of ₹526.50 crore and an impressive ₹297 crore from overseas markets, the film's global dominance is evident. Despite a 12.5 percent dip from its record-breaking Monday (₹107.50 crore), the movie maintained strong audience turnout, particularly benefiting from festive holidays like Bhai Dooj and discounted weekday tickets.
Driving Factors Behind Its Success
Positive word of mouth has been a significant catalyst for the film's sustained momentum. Industry tracker Sacnilk reported that on its sixth day, the film was selling approximately 95,000 tickets an hour around 1 pm, following an astounding 1.40 lakh tickets an hour on Monday – the highest recorded by BookMyShow post-pandemic.
Language Contributions and Overseas Records
On Day 6, Ramayana's ₹94.10 crore net collection in India was distributed across various language versions. The Hindi version led with ₹76 crore, followed by Kannada at ₹7.75 crore, Telugu at ₹4 crore, Tamil at ₹3.60 crore, and Malayalam contributing ₹2.75 crore.
Internationally, the film set a new benchmark in North America, grossing $1.37 million on its first Monday. This figure surpassed the previous record held by Dhurandhar 2 by approximately 20.2 percent and outperformed the corresponding first Monday collections of Christmas releases like Dangal and Dunki. Even with competition from films like Godzilla Minus Zero, Ramayana secured a considerable share of premium screens.
Future Prospects and Production Details
Produced by Namit Malhotra's Prime Focus Studios, in collaboration with DNEG and Yash's Monster Mind Creations, Ramayana: Rise Of A Legend is the inaugural installment of a planned two-part series. Ravie Dubey also features as Lakshman. The highly anticipated second installment is slated for a Diwali 2028 release, promising to continue the epic saga.
