Ramayana box office collection day 8 (Thursday, 12 November) is ₹53.50 crore net in India, according to an early live estimate from trade tracker Sacnilk at 10:03 pm IST. That takes the Nitesh Tiwari film’s eight-day India total to ₹564.60 crore net (₹675.05 crore gross) and its worldwide gross to ₹1,033.55 crore, Sacnilk estimates. All figures here are trade estimates, not producer numbers, and the day 8 figure may change once final counts come in.

How much did Ramayana collect on day 8?

Sacnilk’s live estimate for day 8 is ₹53.50 crore net and ₹64.00 crore gross in India. This is about 24 per cent lower than day 7 (Wednesday, 11 November), when the film made ₹70.65 crore net. Day 8 is the film’s first Thursday after the Diwali holiday days, and its advance booking for the day was lower than for days 6 and 7, Sacnilk data shows.

Ramayana: Part 1 stars Ranbir Kapoor, Yash and Sai Pallavi, with Sunny Deol, Ravi Dubey, Lara Dutta, Arun Govil, Kajal Aggarwal, Rakul Preet Singh and Vivek Oberoi in the cast listed by Sacnilk. It released in theatres on Thursday, 5 November 2026, in Hindi, Kannada, Telugu, Tamil and Malayalam.

Ramayana box office collection day-wise list

Here is the India net collection for each day, as estimated by Sacnilk:

Day 1 (Thu, 5 Nov): ₹64.85 crore
Day 2 (Fri, 6 Nov): ₹48.05 crore
Day 3 (Sat, 7 Nov): ₹69.80 crore
Day 4 (Sun, 8 Nov): ₹56.15 crore
Day 5 (Mon, 9 Nov): ₹107.50 crore
Day 6 (Tue, 10 Nov): ₹94.10 crore
Day 7 (Wed, 11 Nov): ₹70.65 crore
Day 8 (Thu, 12 Nov): ₹53.50 crore (early estimate)
Total: ₹564.60 crore net

The film made ₹182.70 crore in its first three days, as we reported in our Ramayana three-day box office story. The biggest jump came on day 5. Sacnilk says the Diwali holiday gave a major boost that Monday, when the Hindi version alone made ₹87.25 crore net. Sacnilk ranks that as the fourth-highest single day for any Hindi film, behind three days of Dhurandhar 2.

What is Ramayana’s week 1 collection?

Sacnilk puts the film’s first-week total (days 1 to 7, Thursday to Wednesday) at ₹511.10 crore net and ₹611.05 crore gross in India. About 1.97 crore tickets were sold in India in those seven days, according to the same report.

The week had three standout points:

The film crossed ₹100 crore net in India in two days (₹112.90 crore), Sacnilk reported on 7 November.
Day 5 brought ₹107.50 crore net across all languages. The Week calls Ramayana the second Bollywood film to net ₹100 crore in India in a single day.
Days 5 and 6 together added ₹201.60 crore, more than the whole first three days.

Ramayana collection by language: Hindi, Kannada, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam

The Hindi version is doing most of the work. Sacnilk’s seven-day India net split by language is:

Hindi: ₹394.00 crore (77.1 per cent)
Kannada: ₹45.70 crore (8.9 per cent)
Telugu: ₹35.75 crore (7.0 per cent)
Tamil: ₹20.00 crore (3.9 per cent)
Malayalam: ₹15.65 crore (3.1 per cent)

Kannada is the second-biggest language, ahead of Telugu. Yash, who also led KGF: Chapter 2, is one of the film’s three leads. On day 6, Sacnilk recorded 80.7 per cent occupancy for Kannada shows, compared with 54.6 per cent for Hindi. A full day 8 language split was not out at the time of writing.

What is Ramayana’s worldwide and overseas collection?

Sacnilk estimates the overseas gross at ₹358.50 crore after day 8, up from ₹323.50 crore after day 7. Add the India gross of ₹675.05 crore, and the worldwide total comes to ₹1,033.55 crore. That makes Ramayana a ₹1,000 crore worldwide film in its second Thursday, on trade estimates.

The film is produced by Namit Malhotra’s Prime Focus Studios with DNEG and Yash’s Monster Mind Creations, The Week reports. The Week puts the combined budget for both parts at ₹4,000 crore. That is a reported figure. The makers have not shared audited costs, so it is too early to call the film a profit or loss.

How does Ramayana compare with Dhurandhar 2 and Toxic?

Dhurandhar 2, which released on 19 March 2026, is the benchmark for 2026. Here is how the two films compare, using Sacnilk and The Week figures:

Opening day: Dhurandhar 2 netted about ₹102 crore on day 1, as The Hollywood Reporter India reported. Ramayana opened at ₹64.85 crore.
₹300 crore net in India: Dhurandhar 2 took three days. Ramayana took five, the same as Jawan and Pushpa 2, says The Week.
Day 8: Ramayana’s early estimate of ₹53.50 crore is ahead of Dhurandhar 2’s ₹49.70 crore on its day 8.
First eight days: Dhurandhar 2 made ₹674.17 crore net in India, but this includes ₹43 crore from paid previews (day 0). Ramayana is at ₹564.60 crore.
Worldwide lifetime: Dhurandhar 2 ended at ₹1,813.39 crore. Ramayana needs about ₹780 crore more to pass it.

Yash’s other 2026 release, Toxic, crossed ₹100 crore net in India in one day, Sacnilk says. Ramayana took two days to reach that mark.

The second weekend starts on Friday, 13 November. The weekend numbers will show how strongly the film holds now that the Diwali holidays are over. The next big target is Dhurandhar 2’s worldwide total.

Part 2 is planned for Diwali 2027. Outlook India, quoting a Bollywood Hungama report, said in October that the sequel may need more shooting time. The makers have not confirmed any change.

No streaming platform or OTT date has been announced. Sacnilk, quoting Bollywood Hungama, reported in April that the producer turned down a ₹700 crore digital offer for both parts. That report was not confirmed by the makers. For now, Ramayana is only in theatres.
