Ramayana: Part One earns Rs. 500 crore worldwide in opening weekend

Ramayana: Part One earned Rs.

500 crore worldwide in its opening weekend, combining Rs.

280.5 crore in India with about Rs.

219.5 crore overseas.

The film stars Ranbir Kapoor and Yash and opened in several international markets.

Its third day brought in $7.35 million overseas, surpassing the previous single-day record for an Indian film, held by Baahubali 2.

The film’s overseas opening ranked second among Bollywood films, behind Pathaan’s five-day opening, though Ramayana’s release period was shorter.

The United States was its biggest overseas market, with about $9.2 million over the long weekend.

Strong overseas earnings matter because they add to the film’s total box office and set a high bar for its run.

The next target is to surpass Jawan’s overseas total outside China, while a release in Indonesia is scheduled for Wednesday and a China release is planned for a later date.
