Ramayana: Part One joins elite Rs 1000 crore worldwide club, fastest to reach milestone
The Ranbir Kapoor and Yash-led epic crossed the Rs 1000 crore mark in eight days, becoming the eleventh Indian film to do so and the quickest to achieve the figure.
Ramayana: Part One entered the Rs 1000 crore worldwide club after eight days of release, making it the eleventh Indian film to reach that level and the fastest, one day ahead of Baahubali: The Conclusion, Pushpa: The Rule and Dhurandhar: The Revenge. The film has earned approximately Rs 663 crore in India and Rs 342 crore (about US$36.2 million) from overseas markets, bringing the total to Rs 1005 crore worldwide.
The next target is to surpass Dhurandhar: The Revenge, which previously logged Rs 1677 crore globally. Beyond that, the film could challenge Dangal, the highest-grossing Indian movie with over Rs 1900 crore worldwide, and may aim for a Rs 2000 crore total. Even if the original release falls short of those records, a later phase in East Asian territories such as China, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan could add to the total.
