The movie, which had a lower opening than Om Raut’s Prabhas, Kriti Sanon, and Saif Ali Khan-starrer Adipurush, seemed to recover on its second day. The Ranbir Kapoor , Sai Pallavi, and Yash-starrer has now overtaken the previous Ramayana adaptation.
Adding to this, Ranbir Kapoor and Yash play Rama and Ravana in Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana. Ramayana worldwide ticket-window earnings Ramayana grossed ₹ 127.50 crore rupees on its opening day, compared to Adipurush's ₹ 128 crore rupees, despite the latter not having as wide an opening as the Nitesh movie.
