Ramayana: Part One, featuring Ranbir Kapoor and Yash, grossed over Rs. 105 crore on Monday in India.
NEW DELHI, Nov 10: Ramayana: Part One, starring Ranbir Kapoor and Yash, earned over Rs. 105 crore in India on its opening Monday, according to early estimates. This figure includes approximately Rs. 85 crore from the Hindi version and about Rs. 20 crore from dubbed South Indian versions.
Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, this film marks a lavish retelling of the Hindu epic, made at a reported cost of $500 million for two parts. It debuted just ahead of Diwali, a festival that celebrates Lord Ram’s return to Ayodhya after exile, enhancing its box office appeal.
The film features Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram and Sai Pallavi as Sita, with Yash portraying the powerful antagonist Ravana. The extensive production utilizes advanced visual effects and music from Oscar winners AR Rahman and Hans Zimmer.
Critics have given mixed reviews, with some praising its visual spectacle and performances. Saibal Chatterjee from NDTV rated it three out of five stars, noting that its visuals often overshadow the story. In contrast, Rishabh Suri from Hindustan Times awarded it four stars, commending the film’s production quality.
The contrasting reviews have not diminished the film’s initial success, suggesting strong audience interest, particularly in the Hindi belt, which saw a surge in attendance post the pre-Diwali period.
As the night shows unfold, further updates on the box office performance are anticipated.
