The mythological epic ‘Ramayana’ collected ₹375 crore in its first three days, but industry analysts say it must reach a ₹5,000 crore total to cover its estimated ₹2,000 crore cost.
The new mythological feature Ramayana opened to a strong box‑office response, pulling in roughly ₹375 crore across its first three days of release. The opening figures place the film among the highest‑grossing Indian launches of the year.
Trade analysts estimate that the production’s total outlay hovers around ₹2,000 crore, a figure that sets a high bar for profitability. According to their calculations, the film would need to amass close to ₹5,000 crore in cumulative collections before it can be declared a financial success.
Given the current trajectory, industry watchers caution that the movie must sustain its momentum in the coming weeks to bridge the gap between its early earnings and the break‑even target. The performance will also influence future budgeting decisions for large‑scale mythological projects in Bollywood.
