Ramayana day 5 box office
On Monday, its fifth day in theatres, Ramayana saw a spectacular 91 per cent jump in domestic collections at the box office. It earned Rs 107.50 crore net in India on the day, a new record for Mondays. It has become the highest first Monday grosser. Prior to this, the record belonged to Baahubali 2, which earned Rs 80 crore net in all languages on its first Monday. It has also surpassed Dhurandhar 2, which earned Rs 60 crore net on its first Monday earlier this year.
Ramayana earned Rs 107.50 crore net (Rs 126 crore gross) in India on Monday, its single-largest collection since release. Overseas, the Ranbir Kapoor and Yash-starrer did not have the benefit of a post-Diwali holiday, but it still brought in USD 2.7 million from international markets. This gave the film a single-day haul of Rs 156 crore, which remains the film’s biggest worldwide single-day collection so far. The film has earned Rs 663 crore gross worldwide in five days so far and will be looking to cross the Rs 1,000 crore mark by its second weekend.
