₹729.83 Crore and Counting: Ramayana’s Second Sunday Adds ₹44.23 Crore as Worldwide Total Hits ₹1,228 Crore

Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana: Part 1 refuses to slow down. On its second Sunday, the Ranbir Kapoor and Yash epic added a live-estimated ₹44.23 crore net in India, taking its 11-day domestic total to ₹729.83 crore net (₹871.69 crore gross), according to trade tracker Sacnilk. The film played across 14,136 shows on Sunday with an overall occupancy of 47.2%, and its worldwide gross stood at ₹1,228 crore at the end of Day 10. Hindi led Sunday’s collections with ₹32.77 crore, followed by Kannada at ₹3.66 crore, Malayalam and Tamil at ₹2.67 crore each, and Telugu at ₹2.46 crore. The second Sunday comes a day after a record-breaking second Saturday of ₹72.90 crore, the biggest second Saturday in Indian cinema. With advance booking for Monday already at ₹11.70 crore gross, the film is marching toward the ₹750 crore net mark in India. The makers are also looking beyond India: according to Sacnilk, Ramayana is eyeing an early-2027 release in China, Russia, Japan and South Korea, with the censor process already under way in China. That could be significant — Tiwari’s earlier film Dangal collected around $200 million in China alone. For now, the epic’s domestic run remains the story, with the second weekend delivering ₹165.23 crore net in just three days and no sign of the frenzy fading. The film’s second-weekend surge has also reignited trade talk about lifetime records, with the epic now chasing benchmarks once thought untouchable for a Hindi film.
