Ramayana, starring Ranbir Kapoor and Yash in the lead roles, recorded the 9th-biggest opening weekend (first 3 days) at the Hindi box office. The movie netted over Rs. 130 crore in the original Hindi version despite the heavy pre-Diwali effect in the North belt. Had it been released on a regular date, it would have challenged even the top spot. 

Nevertheless, the movie is now running at full throttle from Monday onwards. It is expected to set new benchmarks from here on. For the record, the movie was released on Thursday, so it has the benefit of a 4-day extended weekend. However, the following list consists of only the first three days' collections. 

The top spot belongs to Dhurandhar: The Revenge, which netted around Rs. 289 crore in its first three days, including Rs. 38 crore from previews, followed by Jawan (Rs. 177 crore), Jawan (Rs. 177 crore), Drishyam: The Conclusion (Rs. 173.75 crore), Animal (Rs. 168.50 crore), Pathaan (Rs. 160.50 crore), and so on. Check out the full list below. 

Top opening weekends (3 days) of all time at the Hindi box office:

Rank Movie Nett
1 Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge Rs. 289.00 cr (incl. previews)
2 Jawan Rs. 177.00 cr
3 Drishyam: The Conclusion Rs. 173.75 cr
4 Animal Rs. 168.50 cr
5 Pathaan Rs. 160.50 cr
6 Tiger 3 Rs. 138.50 cr
7 Stree 2 Rs. 138.00 cr
