Ramayana Part One Hits Rs 925 Crore Worldwide in 7 Days
Ramayana Part One has crossed Rs 925 crore worldwide in seven days, with a rare USD 3 million-plus overseas weekday and the Rs 1000 crore mark next.
Ramayana: Part One, led by Ranbir Kapoor and Yash, has moved from a strong opening to a genuinely rare run. The film added USD 3.35 million (about Rs 32 crore) overseas on Wednesday alone, taking its seven-day overseas total to USD 34.15 million (Rs 322 crore). Add Rs 603 crore from India, and the worldwide total sits at Rs 925 crore. It is expected to cross Rs 1000 crore today.
The Wednesday number matters because of when it landed. Barely ten Bollywood films have ever collected more than USD 3 million in a single day overseas, according to trade tracking. Ramayana is doing that on a weekday. A holiday in North America helped drive the day, but the film also opened in Indonesia with USD 90,000 from roughly 37,000 tickets, a strong niche debut.
The pace, in numbers
These are estimates, not final audited figures, but they show a film holding beyond its opening weekend. The numbers that define the run right now:
- Wednesday overseas: USD 3.35 million / approx Rs 32 crore
- Seven-day overseas: USD 34.15 million / Rs 322 crore
- India gross: Rs 603 crore
- Worldwide total: Rs 925 crore
- Next milestone: Rs 1000 crore today
The first extended week is expected to close around USD 36.25–36.50 million overseas. The film’s Thursday number is projected to be double that of Dhurandhar: The Revenge, which collected USD 7 million in its second weekend. If Ramayana keeps that lead, it could reach USD 50 million overseas by Sunday. Even a softer hold would likely mean USD 10–13 million in the coming stretch, enough to pass Jawan’s full overseas run in just 11 days.
Where the ceiling might be
Right now, the film is on course to finish above USD 60 million overseas, with USD 65 million a realistic target. If non-traditional international markets continue to outperform, the trade does not rule out USD 70 million. East Asia is the real wildcard: China, Japan, Taiwan and Korea could push the final total in either direction.
There is a small reporting note. Pinkvilla includes Canada grosses converted from CAD to USD; Rentrak reports them without that conversion, which would put overseas at USD 35.60 million. Both methods tell the same story: the film is exceptionally strong for a weekday, and the next few days determine whether it simply passes a milestone or resets the ceiling for Indian epics abroad.
For fans, the significance is broader than one film. Ramayana: Part One is not just a domestic blockbuster; it is becoming an overseas event, and its weekday strength suggests the audience is treating it as appointment viewing rather than a one-weekend release. The next few days will show whether the film passes Jawan quickly or resets expectations for how far an Indian epic can travel.
