The film’s overseas performance has also been impressive, with international markets contributing ₹214+ crore gross in the first four days. This takes its worldwide gross to ₹500+ crore globally in its first four days itself.
The Hindi version is leading the domestic market with ₹172.75 crore net, followed by Kannada at ₹25.95 crore and Telugu at ₹23 crore. The Tamil version has earned ₹9.75 crore, while Malayalam has contributed ₹7.40 crore. The film’s Diwali day collection alone stood at ₹56.15 crore net across all five languages.
In the Telugu states, Ramayana has registered a promising start despite being a dubbed film. According to the opening weekend trade figures provided, the film collected approximately ₹37 crore gross, with Telangana contributing over ₹22 crore and Andhra Pradesh adding around ₹15 crore. Telangana has emerged as the bigger market for the film.
The Telugu theatrical rights were acquired by Dil Raju for approximately ₹50 crore, taking the estimated break even target to ₹100 crore gross. With the festive holidays, positive audience response and strong performances in Telangana, the film has a chance of reaching this milestone.
