Ramayana tops Ranbir Kapoor’s career at Rs 952.93 crore in 7 days

At Rs 952.93 crore worldwide in seven days, Ramayana has overtaken Animal to become Ranbir Kapoor's biggest grosser and Bollywood's sixth-highest film.

Ramayana tops Ranbir Kapoor's career at Rs 952.93 crore in 7 days

Ramayana has stopped being the week’s biggest release and started being a career reorder. The Hindi mythological epic added an estimated Rs 119.03 crore worldwide on its first Wednesday, taking its seven-day global total to Rs 952.93 crore, according to trade figures reported by Koimoi. That is enough to change two all-time lists at once.

Seven days, one record after another

India contributed Rs 87.03 crore gross on day seven, while overseas markets added an estimated Rs 32 crore. The total was down 20.76% from day six’s Rs 150.22 crore, but it kept the film in territory no Indian release has occupied before: crossing Rs 100 crore globally on each of its first seven days.

  • India net – Rs 527.91 crore
  • India gross – Rs 622.93 crore
  • Overseas gross – Rs 330 crore
  • Worldwide gross – Rs 952.93 crore

That daily streak matters because it suggests the film is not front-loading the way event films often do. A 20.76 percent day-six-to-day-seven fall is a controlled step-down, not a collapse. For a sense of scale, day seven alone came within about Rs 13 crore of the entire worldwide run of Ranbir Kapoor’s Tamasha, which grossed Rs 131.84 crore.

Ranbir Kapoor’s career ceiling moves

At Rs 952.93 crore, Ramayana has passed Animal’s Rs 910.72 crore to become Ranbir Kapoor’s highest-grossing film worldwide. It also sits comfortably above Sanju at Rs 541.76 crore and Brahmastra at Rs 430.24 crore. The seven-day figure already exceeds Animal’s total, and the film is expected to become the actor’s first Rs 1,000-crore grosser on day eight.

Sixth in Bollywood’s all-time list

Ramayana has also crossed Bajrangi Bhaijaan’s Rs 915 crore to become the sixth-highest-grossing Hindi film worldwide. Pathaan, at Rs 1,069.85 crore, stands next in line. The all-time ladder is still topped by Dangal at Rs 2,070.3 crore, followed by Dhurandhar 2, Dhurandhar and Jawan.

For Hindi cinema, the sequence matters. A mythological retelling has now out-grossed the lifetime runs of modern hits such as Animal and Bajrangi Bhaijaan within a week, and is one strong day from joining the Rs 1,000-crore club that has defined the post-pandemic winners. The next data point is day eight: if Ramayana holds its rhythm, it will set up a direct chase for Pathaan’s fifth spot.
