Ramayana – Part I Hits Rs 500 cr in 8 Days
Ranbir Kapoor and Yash's film enters the Rs 500 cr club in eight days and becomes the second-fastest to do so, now at Rs 504.56 cr.
Ranbir Kapoor and Yash’s Ramayana – Part I has entered the Rs 500 cr club in only eight days, becoming the second-fastest film ever to cross that milestone, according to box-office data from Bollywood Hungama.
The film, which released on November 5, 2026, has collected Rs 504.56 cr so far, with the run still in its first phase.
Why the speed matters
Speed to Rs 500 cr captures more than an opening weekend; it reflects how strongly a film holds on weekdays and converts repeat viewings. For fans, the milestone also shows how compressed the journey to Rs 500 cr has become. In 2017, Baahubali 2 needed 34 days; now two 2026 releases have got there in under ten days.
The fastest films to Rs 500 cr
- Dhurandhar The Revenge – 5 days
- Ramayana – Part I – 8 days
- Pushpa 2 – The Rule – 10 days
- Jawan – 13 days
- Dhurandhar – 15 days
- Animal – 16 days
- Stree 2 – 18 days
- Chhaava – 22 days
- Pathaan – 22 days
- Gadar 2 – 24 days
Ramayana – Part I has reached the mark two days faster than Pushpa 2 – The Rule, which took ten days on its way to Rs 830.10 cr. It is five days faster than Jawan’s thirteen-day journey, and 26 days faster than Baahubali 2 – The Conclusion, which first set the Rs 500 cr benchmark for Indian cinema in 2017.
Can it catch Dhurandhar The Revenge?
The only film ahead of it, Dhurandhar The Revenge, released on March 19, 2026, reached Rs 500 cr in five days and later closed at Rs 1108.09 cr, the highest lifetime in this list.
Because Ramayana – Part I is still early in its run and has already passed Rs 500 cr, the trade’s focus now shifts from the milestone to the final number. The obvious benchmark is Dhurandhar The Revenge’s lifetime total, but the next few days will show whether the film can keep its weekday pace after the initial burst.
