Nitesh Tiwari’s "Ramayana: Part 1" has created box office history by recording the biggest Monday collection ever for an Indian film in overseas markets. On its fifth day, the film earned an impressive $3.60 million (approximately ₹30.2 crore), beating records set by some of India’s biggest blockbusters.
The film comfortably surpassed the previous Monday record held by "Baahubali 2: The Conclusion", which had collected just under $2.50 million. Its Monday earnings were also almost twice those of recent blockbusters such as "Pathaan", "Jawan" and "Dhurandhar: The Revenge".
What makes this achievement even more remarkable is that overseas film collections usually drop sharply on Mondays after a busy weekend. However, "Ramayana" witnessed strong audience support across several international markets, with its Monday collections even exceeding its opening-day earnings in some regions.
In the UAE and Gulf countries, the film saw a major jump in collections on Monday, outperforming the peak Monday numbers recorded by "Jawan" and "Pathaan". In Australia, it moved ahead of "Dhurandhar: The Revenge", while in Canada, the two films recorded nearly similar numbers.
The film had already made headlines in the UK and Ireland over the weekend. It became the first Indian film to top the weekend box office charts in these markets, earning £1.7 million and beating Hollywood release "Godzilla Minus Zero".
With a five-day overseas collection of $27.25 million (approximately ₹250 crore), "Ramayana: Part 1" is off to a remarkable start. Trade expectations suggest that it could earn between $50 million and $70 million internationally, even before its planned releases in China, Japan and South Korea.
