Ramayana has done something no Indian film has ever done. The film has grossed over ₹100 Cr worldwide on every single day of its first week, and its first-week total is now over ₹900 Cr.
Ramayana 1st Week Worldwide Gross
Day 1 (Thursday): ₹128 Cr
Day 2 (Friday): ₹101 Cr
Day 3 (Saturday): ₹151 Cr
Day 4 (Sunday, Diwali): ₹123 Cr
Day 5 (Monday): ₹160 Cr
Day 6 (Tuesday): ₹143 Cr
Day 7 (Wednesday): ₹105 Cr+ (Estimates)
Total: ₹910 Cr+
An Epic Record
Big films usually cross ₹100 Cr on their opening day and weekend, then slow down once the weekdays begin. Ramayana never dropped below ₹100 Cr. All seven days of its first week went past the mark, setting a new benchmark for Indian cinema.
The momentum after Diwali has been unreal, both in India and overseas. In India, the post-Diwali Monday and Tuesday brought in ₹127 Cr and ₹110 Cr. In North America, the film set all-time weekday records for an Indian film.
Third Film in the ₹900 Cr First-Week Club
With ₹900 Cr+, Ramayana becomes only the third Indian film ever to cross ₹900 Cr in its first week.
- Pushpa 2: ₹965 Cr
- Dhurandhar 2: ₹940 Cr
- Ramayana: ₹910 Cr+ (estimates)
On the way, it also left Baahubali 2’s first week of ₹830 Cr behind. Ramayana is also the only standalone film in the club, since Pushpa 2 and Dhurandhar 2 are both sequels.
Next Target: Biggest Indian Film Ever
With the momentum it is carrying, there is no stopping Ramayana at the box office. The film is all set to become the biggest Indian grosser of all time, and the only question now is how quickly it gets there.
