Pune, 29th October 2026: A week before release, Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana: Part 1 is already the film of the festive season. It has sold tickets worth ₹13.14 crore in advance across India, according to tracking platform Sacnilk, with about 2.43 lakh tickets gone since bookings opened on Dussehra.

The film opens in theatres on Thursday, November 5, with special previews on November 4.

Ranbir Kapoor plays Rama, Sai Pallavi plays Sita, and Yash plays Ravana, with Sunny Deol as Hanuman. The cast also includes Arun Govil, Lara Dutta, Vivek Oberoi, Kajal Aggarwal and Rakul Preet Singh. Namit Malhotra’s Prime Focus Studios is producing it with DNEG and Yash’s Monster Mind Creations, and the music is by A.R. Rahman and Hans Zimmer.

Where the bookings are coming from

The Hindi version accounts for the bulk of it, about ₹11.34 crore. The Kannada version has brought in about ₹1.38 crore and Telugu about ₹42 lakh. The makers are also planning a worldwide IMAX release, and pre-sales have already started in the United States.

Booking in Pune

Diwali falls on November 8, so the opening weekend lands right in the middle of the festival. Evening shows at the multiplexes in Kharadi, Viman Nagar, Baner and Pimpri-Chinchwad are likely to fill quickly, especially IMAX and premium screens. If you want a show between November 5 and 9, book soon. Weekday morning shows in the second week are usually easier to get and a bit cheaper.

With several language versions running, double-check you’ve picked the right language and format before you pay.

Also releasing
