\"\u2018Ramayana: ‘Ramayana<\/a>: Part 1′ has opened strongly, netting Rs 238.85 crore in India across its first four days and crossing the Rs 500 crore mark globally. That invites a comparison with Ranveer Singh\u2019s two big hits, ‘Dhurandhar’ and ‘Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge’, each of which had a very different opening and theatrical run. While ‘Ramayana’ has kicked off better than the first ‘Dhurandhar’, the sequel holds the record for a much bigger opening day.<\/p>\n

\u2018Dhurandhar\u2019 box office collection: Rs 840.20 crore net in India<\/p>\n

‘Dhurandhar’, which hit theatres on December 5, 2025, began its run with Rs 28 crore net in India. It earned Rs 32 crore on Day 2 and Rs 43 crore on Day 3, bringing its opening weekend total to Rs 103 crore. The film kept gaining momentum in the weeks that followed, collecting Rs 207.25 crore in its first week and finishing with Rs 840.20 crore net in India. Its worldwide gross reached Rs 1,307.35 crore.<\/p>\n

\u2018Ramayana: Part 1\u2019 box office collection in four days<\/p>\n

‘Ramayana: Part 1’ arrived in theatres on November 5 and opened with Rs 64.85 crore net in India. Day 2 brought in Rs 48.05 crore, Day 3 Rs 69.80 crore and Day 4 Rs 56.15 crore, which puts its four-day India net at Rs 238.85 crore and its India gross at Rs 285.20 crore. As per the latest reported numbers, the worldwide gross has gone past Rs 500 crore. The film is still playing in theatres, so the final collections are yet to be determined.<\/p>\n

\u2018Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge\u2019 box office opens with a massive Rs 102.55 crore<\/p>\n

The picture changes completely when you look at the box office of ‘Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge’. The sequel released on March 19, 2026, and opened with a huge Rs 102.55 crore net in India, after earning Rs 43 crore from paid previews a day earlier on March 18. It then collected Rs 80.72 crore on Day 2, Rs 113 crore on Day 3 and Rs 114.85 crore on Day 4. That took its four-day India net to Rs 411.12 crore without the previews, and Rs 454.12 crore once the preview collection is added.<\/p>\n

\u2018Ramayana: Part 1\u2019 still far behind \u2018Dhurandhar 2\u2019 lifetime collection<\/p>\n

Going by Sacnilk\u2019s reported figures, ‘Dhurandhar 2’ ended its run with a staggering Rs 1,149.30 crore net in India and Rs 1,813.39 crore worldwide. ‘Ramayana’ has failed to beat the sequel\u2019s opening-day collection, and the lifetime India net and worldwide gross of Ranveer Singh\u2019s film remain well out of its reach for now. Still, ‘Ramayana’ has begun solidly, topping the first ‘Dhurandhar’ across the opening four days, though it needs a long run to come close to the lifetime records of either of Ranveer Singh\u2019s films.<\/p>\n

\u2018Ramayana: Part 1\u2019 and \u2018Dhurandhar\u2019 cast and story<\/p>\n

Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, ‘Ramayana: Part 1’ features Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Yash<\/a> as Ravana and Sunny Deol as Hanuman. The mythological epic retells the story of the Ramayana on the big screen and is planned as a two-part series. ‘Dhurandhar’, helmed by Aditya Dhar, stars Ranveer Singh as an undercover Indian intelligence agent who infiltrates a criminal network in Pakistan, with Akshaye Khanna, Sanjay Dutt<\/a>, R Madhavan and Arjun Rampal in key roles. Its sequel, ‘Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge’, carries the story forward as Ranveer\u2019s character takes on a bigger mission.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"‘Ramayana: Part 1′ has opened strongly, netting Rs 238.85 crore in India across its first four days and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":958253,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[64,63,525470,134,344,375,525469,273564,17228,382],"class_list":["post-958252","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-dhurandhar-2-opening-day-collection","tag-entertainment","tag-movies","tag-ramayana","tag-ramayana-part-1-box-office-collection","tag-ranveer-singh-dhurandhar-2","tag-sanjay-dutt","tag-yash"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/958252","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=958252"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/958252\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/958253"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=958252"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=958252"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=958252"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
