Ramayana Box Office Day 9 Prediction: Film Crosses ₹1,000 Crore Worldwide
Ramayana Box Office Day 9 Prediction: Film Crosses ₹1,000 Crore Worldwide
The Nitesh Tiwari-directed epic Ramayana is projected to collect between ₹35 crore and ₹40 crore at the Indian box office on its ninth day. Having already crossed the ₹1,000 crore gross mark worldwide in just eight days, the film has surpassed the lifetime net earnings of major recent releases including Pathaan, Gadar 2, and Animal.
The Nitesh Tiwari-directed epic Ramayana is projected to collect between ₹35 crore and ₹40 crore at the Indian box office on its ninth day, according to early estimates. The film has entered its second week after a strong opening, having already crossed the ₹1,000 crore gross mark worldwide in just eight days.
In India alone, Ramayana collected ₹564.60 crore net during its extended one-week run. This performance allows the film to surpass the lifetime net earnings of several major recent blockbusters, including Pathaan, Gadar 2, and Animal. On Day 8, the movie earned ₹53.50 crore net in India.
Industry observers note that a drop in collections on the second Friday is expected as it is a working day. However, the film needs to show a significant jump during the second weekend to maintain momentum. Early estimates suggest that better footfalls during night shows could push Day 9 collections higher than the current projection.
Ramayana is a two-part franchise film produced on a budget of ₹4,000 crore, with Part 1’s budget estimated at ₹2,000 crore. While the domestic net collection remains decent, the film requires a strong second weekend to improve its final net figures.
The film has received mostly positive reviews from critics. The Free Press Journal awarded the film 3.5 stars, describing it as "a sincere and visually grand attempt at bringing one of India's greatest epics to the big screen." The review noted that while Ranbir Kapoor takes some time to settle into his role, Yash is an absolute standout as Ravana, with Sai Pallavi and the supporting cast adding to the film's appeal.
With its worldwide gross collection now standing at ₹1,033.55 crore, Ramayana has solidified its position as one of the highest-grossing Indian films in history. The focus now shifts to whether the film can sustain its momentum through the second weekend to secure a favorable final net outcome.
