Ramayana - Part I Box Office: Ranbir Kapoor – Yash starrer collects Rs. 62.47 cr, emerges as 5th highest opening day grosser of all time; falls just Rs. 1.33 cr short of Animal

The much-awaited Ranbir Kapoor and Yash starrer Ramayana - Part I has made an impressive start at the Indian box office, collecting Rs. 62.47 crores combined across all languages on its opening day. With this, the magnum opus has secured the fifth position in the list of the highest opening day grossers of all time, making a strong entry into an elite club dominated by some of the biggest blockbusters in Indian cinema.

However, the film narrowly misses out on a place in the top four. Ramayana - Part I falls short of Ranbir Kapoor's Animal, which had collected Rs. 63.80 crores on its opening day, by just Rs. 1.33 crores. Had it managed to bridge this relatively small gap, the film would have secured the fourth position in the all-time opening day rankings.

At the top of the list is Dhurandhar The Revenge, which holds the record with a phenomenal opening of Rs. 90 crores. Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan occupies the second position with Rs. 75 crores, followed by Allu Arjun's Pushpa 2 - The Rule, which collected Rs. 72 crores on its first day. Animal remains at number four with Rs. 63.80 crores, while Ramayana - Part I rounds off the top five.

Interestingly, Ramayana - Part I has also managed to edge past Ajay Devgn's Drishyam The Conclusion, which had opened with Rs. 62 crores, by a margin of Rs. 47 lakhs. Shah Rukh Khan's Pathaan follows with Rs. 57 crores, while Stree 2 had collected Rs. 55.40 crores. K.G.F - Chapter 2 and War complete the top 10 with opening day collections of Rs. 53.95 crores and Rs. 53.35 crores, respectively.

With an opening of Rs. 62.47 crores, Ramayana - Part I has firmly established itself among the biggest opening day performers in Indian cinema. The focus will now shift to its performance over the opening weekend, as the film looks to capitalise on the strong start and climb further up the box office rankings.
