Ramayana box office worldwide numbers have just given Indian cinema its biggest global moment of the year. Ranbir Kapoor and Yash’s epic Ramayana: Part I has finished the weekend ending 8 November 2026 as the second-highest-grossing film in the entire world, according to the latest worldwide weekend estimates released by Comscore, the box office tracking company associated with Rentrak. The news, reported by Bollywood Hungama today, 9 November 2026, puts an Indian film ahead of major Hollywood releases on the global chart — a rare feat that shows how far the film’s reach now extends beyond India.
The Ramayana box office worldwide story is about more than one big number. It is about a film made in India, in five Indian languages, standing second only to a Japanese blockbuster on a weekend packed with international releases. Here are the five most exciting facts behind the global ranking, the India numbers that powered it, and what comes next for the film.
1. Ramayana Earned $52.15 Million Worldwide in One Weekend
The headline figure in the Ramayana box office worldwide report is $52.15 million. That is the film’s estimated worldwide gross for the weekend of 6–8 November 2026, as measured by Comscore across 38 territories. The number secured Ramayana the No. 2 spot on the global weekend chart, and it counts only the three-day weekend — the film’s cumulative worldwide total in the same Comscore report already stands at $55.655 million, because it also includes the Thursday opening day and the paid previews that ran before it.
To put that Ramayana box office worldwide figure in perspective, very few Indian films have ever ranked this high on a worldwide weekend chart. The opening weekend of Ramayana was already the biggest ever for an Indian film in IMAX, with the premium format contributing around 11 percent of the film’s opening weekend global business. The Comscore ranking now confirms what the India numbers hinted at all along: this is not only a domestic blockbuster, it is a genuine worldwide event.
2. Only Godzilla Minus Zero Is Ahead — and Ramayana Beat Hollywood
The only film ahead of Ramayana on the global weekend chart is Godzilla Minus Zero, which topped the chart with an estimated $63 million worldwide. The Japanese sequel, directed by Takashi Yamazaki, opened in Japan on 3 November and arrived in North America on 6 November, where it collected an estimated $31.6 million — the biggest opening ever for a live-action foreign-language film in the United States and Canada.
What makes Ramayana’s position remarkable is the scale of the competition it beat. The Cat in the Hat, a major Hollywood animated release, ranked third with $30.50 million. Ramayana also finished ahead of Stray Kids World Tour ‘RUN IT’ LIVE VIEWING and Clayface, two more international releases that were in the running for the top spots. And it did all of this while being tracked across just 38 territories, compared with 101 territories for Godzilla Minus Zero and 61 for The Cat in the Hat. In other words, the Ramayana box office worldwide chart shows Ramayana reaching No. 2 in the world from a much smaller footprint than the films around it.
3. Overseas Markets Powered the Global Total
A closer look at the Ramayana box office worldwide figures shows where the money came from. Of the $52.15 million weekend total, $43.50 million came from international markets outside Comscore’s domestic territory, while the domestic weekend estimate stood at $8.65 million. That means more than four-fifths of the weekend’s worldwide business came from outside the film’s home market.
The overseas strength is no accident. Ramayana released in five Indian languages plus English in overseas markets, with a wide IMAX rollout that turned the film into a premium-format draw. In North America, the film’s extended opening weekend, including paid previews from 4 November, took it to $12.2 million. BookMyShow reported more than 1.10 lakh tickets sold in a single hour in India, a pace that beat both Dhurandhar 2 and Pushpa 2. The film’s music by Hans Zimmer and A. R. Rahman, and its scale as the first part of a two-part saga, gave international audiences a reason to watch it on the biggest screen available.
That overseas pull is exactly why the Ramayana box office worldwide total leans so heavily on international markets.
4. India Numbers: Rs 238.85 Crore in Four Days, Rs 500 Crore Crossed on Day 5
The Ramayana box office worldwide total rests on a huge India base. The film opened on Thursday 5 November 2026 and collected Rs 64.85 crore net in India on Day 1, followed by Rs 48.05 crore on Day 2, a massive Rs 69.80 crore on Saturday (Day 3), and Rs 56.15 crore on Sunday (Day 4). That is Rs 238.85 crore net in India in just four days, with the India gross standing at Rs 285.20 crore after Day 4.
On Monday 9 November, Day 5, the film crossed the Rs 500 crore mark worldwide, with trade tracker Sacnilk putting the worldwide gross at Rs 507.20 crore and Bollywood Hungama at Rs 515.5 crore. The Day 5 advance booking alone was worth Rs 45.53 crore, and early live tracking suggested the Monday finish could land near Rs 70 crore — which would make it the biggest Monday of 2026. Trade trackers differ slightly on the exact worldwide weekend figure — Sacnilk’s own estimate is $54.10 million against Comscore’s $52.15 million — but every tracker agrees on the Ramayana box office worldwide ranking: Ramayana is the world’s No. 2 film of the weekend.
5. What Comes Next: Day 5 Finals Tonight and Part 2 in 2027
The Ramayana box office worldwide story is still being written. The final Day 5 figures will arrive tonight, and they will confirm whether Monday really did deliver the biggest Monday of the year. The film has already passed Adipurush’s lifetime worldwide gross of Rs 215.78 crore in its opening weekend alone, and it is now chasing much bigger lifetime milestones in its first week.
Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, Ramayana: Part I stars Ranbir Kapoor as Rama, Yash as Ravana — Yash is also a co-producer — Sai Pallavi as Sita and Sunny Deol as Hanuman, with Ravi Dubey as Lakshman. The second part of the saga is scheduled for Diwali 2027, so the story that audiences are watching now is only the first half. For now, the Ramayana box office worldwide result gives the film’s makers something no Indian film has had in a long time: a place on the global podium, second only to Godzilla, and ahead of Hollywood’s biggest releases of the weekend.
