The two latest releases, Ramayana and Dhurandhar 2, are racing to become the quickest Indian films to cross the Rs 500 crore box‑office mark, according to NDTV.
Two high‑profile Indian films, Ramayana and Dhurandhar 2, are currently locked in a box‑office race to see which will reach the Rs 500 crore milestone first. Both movies opened to strong collections and have drawn considerable attention from trade analysts and cinema‑goers alike. NDTV highlighted the competition as a key indicator of the market’s health.
Crossing Rs 500 crore is regarded as a benchmark of blockbuster status in the Indian film industry, a feat achieved by only a handful of titles in recent years. The figure reflects cumulative gross earnings across domestic and overseas markets, and reaching it quickly can boost a film’s negotiating power for ancillary revenues.
Industry observers note that Ramayana’s mythological appeal and Dhurandhar 2’s action‑drama formula have resonated with different audience segments, creating parallel momentum. While exact day‑counts have not been disclosed, trade sources confirm that both films are on track to challenge existing records, and the race will likely be settled in the coming weeks as box‑office data continues to be compiled.
