The Ranbir Kapoor and Yash led Ramayana has taken a phenomenal start at the box office in Hindi, as early estimates suggest first-day business in the range of Rs. 50 crore to Rs. 51 crore, depending on how strong the film has performed in the single screens of the mass belt.
This is the biggest Pre-Diwali start, as the film has broken the long-standing record of Salman Khan-led Tiger 3, which opened at Rs. 44 crore on Diwali day. Ramayana will see a dip in business on Friday, but the Saturday figure could top the opening day, and even hit the Rs. 60 crore mark as the reports are supremely positive.
The four-day pre-Diwali weekend of Ramayana is expected to be in the range of Rs. 210 crore, and then it’s expected to peak from Monday to Wednesday, doubling from the Pre-Diwali total. The business is phenomenal all across the board, as the two leads – Ranbir Kapoor and Yash are flexing their stardom despite a conventionally lull period.
The national chains are looking to collect around Rs 30 crore on Thursday, contributing 55 per cent to the total business. The film has a wide release on over 20,000 shows in North India, and the peak capacity is expected to be achieved on Monday.
One must remember that Ramayana has got a limited release in the South by the distributor partners in the Southern Markets, and the restrained release has cost it at least Rs. 5 crore in Hindi.
