Ramayana Creates a Global Box Office Sensation

Bollywood’s latest big-budget mythological epic, Ramayana, is making a strong impact at the global box office. The film has reportedly collected a massive ₹1,033 crore gross worldwide within just eight days of its release. With this achievement, it has become the third fastest Indian film to cross the ₹1,000 crore mark globally. Pushpa 2 and Dhurandhar 2 hold the top two positions, having reached the milestone in just seven days each. Although Ramayana has missed out on the top spot, its remarkable opening-week performance has added another major achievement to its growing list of box-office records.

What makes this milestone particularly notable is the film’s journey before its release. Unlike Pushpa 2 and Dhurandhar 2, which benefited from the anticipation surrounding their sequel status and existing fan bases, Ramayana reportedly received mixed reactions before reaching theatres. However, the response changed after its worldwide release, with the film going on to attract audiences and set new box-office records. The movie stars Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama and Sai Pallavi as Sita, while Yash plays Ravana and also serves as a co-producer alongside Namit Malhotra. Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, the epic features music composed jointly by Hans Zimmer and A.R. Rahman. Its grand production scale and visual presentation have contributed to the film’s growing global attention.
