The Telugu and Tamil dubbed version of Bollywood movies usually lead among South Indian languages in domestic collections. But for Ramayana: Part One, the Kannada dubbed version has consistently stayed on top for the past nine days.

Now the Kannada version of the Nitesh Tiwari directorial has crossed ₹50 crore in net domestic box office collection, becoming the first Bollywood film to achieve this milestone.

This comes two days after the Ranbir Kapoor starrer became the first Bollywood movie to net ₹100 crore jointly from dubbed versions in Kannada, Telugu, Tamil and Malayalam.

During its extended eight-day opening week, the Namit Malhotra masterpiece netted ₹48.95 crore from its Kannada version. On Day 9, another ₹1.17 crore was added to the total net collection from 541 shows, helping the Kannada version cross ₹50 crore.

The popularity of Yash, who plays Ravana in the two-part epic movie franchise, in Karnataka is one of the key reasons for wider acceptance among Kannada audience. The Hindu epic's pan-India appeal has also helped its box office momentum, along with the state-of-the-art technology used in the making of the movie.

While Kantara: A Legend Chapter 1 and KGF Chapter 2 took four days to net ₹50 crore, Toxic achieved the milestone in six days.

In Karnataka, the total gross box office collection of Ramayana crossed ₹100 crore, which includes all language versions. The latest collection was estimated to be ₹102 crore in Karnataka.

In eight days, the worldwide collection of Ramayana was ₹1,033.55 crore. This includes ₹358.5 crore in overseas collection and ₹675.05  crore in domestic gross collection.
