Ramayana Box Office Day 1 Prediction: Bollywood’s 2nd Biggest Opening On The Cards, Hindi Version Alone Eyeing 65 Crore+ Net

The wait is finally going to be over, as we’re just two days away from the grand theatrical release of Ramayana. Starring Ranbir Kapoor, Yash, and Sai Pallavi, the film arrives on November 5, making it a pre-Diwali release. Considering the scale of the film, expectations are very high, and it is all set to break the pre-Diwali jinx for Bollywood with a bumper opening at the Indian box office. Will it be able to hit the 100 crore net mark on day 1? Let’s discuss this along with the other details in the prediction report below!

Solid impression due to the first teaser; Mixed responses to trailers and songs

This magnum opus, based on a timeless Indian epic, generated strong buzz among moviegoers with its mere announcement. As people learned about the casting and the huge budget, the film started to grab more eyeballs. The first teaser (titled ‘Ramayana – The Introduction’ ) was a huge hit, and it created more excitement. However, the following assets didn’t live up to the hype generated by the first teaser.

The two trailers and songs received mixed responses from viewers, which somewhat affected Ramayana’s opening-day potential. Had it been at the level of the first teaser, the start would have been much higher than it is set to be on Thursday, November 5.

Genuine excitement among moviegoers; grand release and high ticket rates to benefit

Although important assets received mixed responses, Ramayana still carries the buzz due to its scale and the Indian epic it is based on. It’s a one-of-a-kind experience never seen in Indian cinema, and there’s genuine excitement among moviegoers to watch the spectacle on the big screen. Besides, two important factors are in its favor: the grand release and higher ticket rates. As we write, the film has secured a whopping 21,000 shows across India for its opening, and the final count is expected to reach 24,000-25,000, making it the biggest Indian release ever.

Talking about ticket rates, they are even higher than blockbuster ticket prices. For the Hindi 3D version, the average ticket price is 450 rupees+, while for the normal 2D version, it is around 330 rupees. It’ll definitely help the film break the pre-Diwali jinx, even though footfalls will be impacted.

Ramayana day 1 prediction: Set to break pre-Diwali jinx with the 2nd-biggest Bollywood opening!

On the whole, Ramayana is all set for a record start at the Indian box office during the pre-Diwali period, which is not very favorable for Bollywood movies. Considering strong advances and other favorable factors, the Hindi version is eyeing a 68-74 crore net start. The Kannada version is expected to rake in 10-12 crore net, while the Telugu version is looking for a start of 8-10 crore net. In Malayalam and Tamil combined, the film is expected to make 5 crore net.

Overall, Ramayana is likely to open at a whopping 91-101 crore net (all languages) at the Indian box office, a second-biggest opening for Bollywood after Dhurandhar 2 (145 crore net).

Day 1 expected language-wise breakdown (net):

• Hindi – 68-74 crore
• Kannada – 10-12 crore
• Telugu – 8-10 crore
• Tamil and Malayalam – 5 crore

Total – 91-101 crore
