"Ramayana: Part 1" has crossed the ₹1,000 crore mark in worldwide gross collections within just eight days of its release. The film collected ₹53.50 crore net in India on Day 8, across 24,042 shows, taking its total domestic net collection to ₹564.60 crore. Its worldwide gross collection now stands at ₹1,033.55 crore, showed Sacnilk data.
On Day 8, the Hindi version contributed the largest share, earning ₹43 crore from 19,464 shows. The Kannada version collected ₹3.25 crore from 922 shows, followed by Malayalam at ₹2.80 crore from 977 shows. The Telugu version earned ₹2.30 crore from 1,783 shows, while the Tamil version collected ₹2.15 crore from 896 shows. Together, these collections took the film's total India gross to ₹675.05 crore.
The film also performed strongly in international markets. It earned ₹25 crore overseas on Day 8, pushing its total overseas gross collection to ₹358.50 crore. This international performance played a major role in helping the film cross the ₹1,000 crore worldwide milestone.
Another major achievement is that "Ramayana: Part 1" has become only the fourth Indian film to cross ₹500 crore in domestic net collections within its first seven days. It has joined the exclusive club of "Pushpa 2: The Rule", "Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge" and "Baahubali 2: The Conclusion".
Among these four films, "Pushpa 2" reached the ₹500 crore mark the fastest, taking just five days. "Dhurandhar 2" achieved the milestone in six days, while "Ramayana" and "Baahubali 2" took seven days.
The first-week figures also show how differently these films performed. "Pushpa 2" collected ₹688.35 crore net in seven days, including paid previews, while "Dhurandhar 2" earned ₹624.47 crore. "Baahubali 2" recorded ₹539 crore. "Ramayana" finished its first seven days with ₹511.10 crore net, rising to ₹564.60 crore after eight days.
Unlike "Pushpa 2" and "Dhurandhar 2", which not only benefited from huge opening-day collections and paid previews, but also the advantage of the hype built by the first parts. "Ramayana" managed this feat with Part 1 alone, building its momentum through a strong midweek performance during Diwali. Its biggest domestic collection came on Monday, Day 5, when it earned ₹107.50 crore net, almost twice its Sunday collection.
The film has also shown remarkable staying power. Its Day 8 collection of ₹53.50 crore is higher than that of "Dhurandhar 2" (₹49.70 crore) and "Pushpa 2" (₹37.45 crore) on the same day. This gives "Ramayana" a strong position heading into its second weekend.
Its performance in overseas markets and South India has further strengthened its success. The film earned ₹358.50 crore overseas in eight days, surpassing the corresponding collections of "Dhurandhar 2" and "Pushpa 2". Its South Indian dubbed versions also contributed more than ₹100 crore net during the first week. In Kerala, it became the first Bollywood film to cross ₹20 crore in gross collections.
