🚨 New Column
Movies are bookmarks for our memory, especially those watched in a theatre. You may forget the plot but you’ll remember who was with you, where you sat and more.
I watched Ramayan. My latest for HT. Read, Share views :) https://t.co/EC3EhLsWL4
#Ramayana pirated version being projected right on the streets and roadsides for huge crowds during its release week—Footfall 🥲
BTW when was the last time a movie sparked this kind of chaotic, open-air street viewing craze right in its opening weekend?
The NEW TRACKERS in town just discovered Box office Mojo, First thing Mojo is not Live Tracker, It updates every weekend or end of week.
Secondly they're behind
On The Numbers, India is only up to Thursday 12 Nov ($71.9M), and the UK, Australia and New Zealand show just their opening weekends.
Missing from that $102M:
🇮🇳 India Fri + Sat: ~$15M
🌍 Overseas first week not yet posted: ~$7M
🌍 Overseas Thu–Sat: ~$5M
🇺🇸🇨🇦 North America Saturday: ~$2.4M
Add those and you're at ~$130M (₹1,230 Cr+) through Saturday.
There's no ₹250 Cr gap, just a few days these sites haven't posted yet.
People are so Desperate to bring Ramayana down that they are now making their own points out of nowhere.
One more thing According to Box office Mojo Dhurandhar 2’s Lifetime collection is 1400 cr, and is behind Pushpa 2 and Baahubali 2.
Thank you.
RAMAYANA IS SURPASSING EXPECTATIONS IN SOUTH🔥
Karnataka, Tamil Nadu & Kerala have exceeded expectations, while Telugu market response has been shockingly low

Even for the best of my films she din’t do this , but my mother has been buying tickets of @malhotra_namit ‘s #Ramayana for the servants , watch men etc in the building complex she lives , and inspite of this kind of euphoria leading it to breaking all box office records and fast emerging as the BIGGEST HIT EVER in INDIAN CINEMATIC HISTORY, stil lot of noise is being made by many jealous that the collections are still not enough because it’s 2000 cr a piece making it 4000 for 2
I got to know that the actual cost of part 1 is a little less than 800 and that includes mutually beneficial deals , global tax benefits , subsidy elements etc etc which all will eventually bring the cost to lesser than that .. And not only me but any reasonably experienced film maker by seeing the film can see the cost can’t be more than that ..
Also many are stupid to assume that both parts will cost same ..That’s like thinking the cost before interval and post interval will be same in a film ..I know of films where 50% of the cost was just climax
Also much of the cost will include costs of creating the world of Ramayana which becomes future assets for gaming and various other aspects including assets for part 2 , which are all a part of Namit’s visionary future outings .. And this part I frankly think , can’t even be understood by most Bollywood makers , traders and other self proclaimed experts
So going by how it’s bull running now , it is obvious that Namit Malhotra is going to cover the entire cost of part 1 or maybe both parts in part 1 itself and then there’s the non theatrical of part 1 and all revenue inflows of part 2
So in other words Namit Malhotra can build his own Pushpak vimaan and start dumping money into innumerable extraordinary ventures which all the biggest production companies from north to south couldn’t do till now and then he can surpass even the biggest of the biggest Hollywood biggies
I don’t know what happened to Valmiki Ji or Tulsidas ji after they did their work , but it’s an irrefutable fact that , from now onwards Namit Malhotra will be the biggest mega film maker in history since 1913’s May 3rd release Raja Harishchandra , till whichever the biggest film came before November 5 th 2026 ..If anyone has a doubt just do the math
And the fact that the most fantastic action set pieces will be in part 2 starting from the Hanuman acts , Vaanar Sena , Ram Sethu , Lanka dhahanam , Sita in Lanka , Kumbha Karan’s death , Ravan vadh and many many more just to name a few , and going by the extraordinary proven Vision of Namit Malhotra’s combination of strategy , business acumen , creative understanding and visionary outlook, If KGF 2 did around 5 times more than KGF 1 , I am convinced that Ramayana 2 will do 10 times more than Ramayana part 1 ..If you disagree , we will talk in 2028
Pushing #Ramayana Part 2 to 2028 isnt a delay, Its a Plan.
Makers smartly created breathing room for Phase 2 release in China, Japan, and Russia. If it clicks, the global hype and long-term run for Part 2 will be unstoppable.
Indra. Phra In. Batara Indra. Thagyamin. Preah En. Taishakuten.
One king of the heavens, known by different names across many lands. It’s incredible how much we have in common.
I’ve been overwhelmed by the love pouring in for Lord Indra from India, from Thailand and across Southeast Asia, and from so many corners of the world I never expected to hear from.
Thank you, truly. I’ve always believed good stories have a way of connecting us all, and our cultures share more of them than we realise. It means the world to see a timeless epic like the Ramayana find so much love, everywhere.
And to all the wonderful artists who have created such beautiful art, and continue to do so, thank you so much. I’m sorry I don’t know each of your handles, but I’ve seen your work and it means a lot. 🙏
