Ramayana Day 13 Advance Booking: Tuesday pre-sales hit Rs. 2.83 crores; Telugu OVERTAKES Malayalam, Kannada and Tamil
Ramayana – Part I, starring Ranbir Kapoor and Yash, continues to attract advance bookings as it approaches its thirteenth day in cinemas, Tuesday, November 17. The Nitesh Tiwari-directed mythological epic has registered advance ticket sales worth Rs. 2.83 crores nett, with 1,09,981 tickets sold across 10,152 shows.
While the film is now moving deeper into its second week, a closer examination of the advance-booking figures reveals some fascinating trends. Hindi continues to dominate overall collections, but Telugu has emerged as the biggest South Indian language, overtaking Malayalam, Kannada and Tamil.
The Hindi version has generated approximately Rs. 1.95 crores nett, accounting for 69.02% of Tuesday’s advance collections. However, the biggest surprise comes from Telugu, which has emerged as the second-highest-grossing language with Rs. 33.03 lakh nett. Malayalam follows with Rs. 21.38 lakh, while Kannada and Tamil have generated approximately Rs. 16.77 lakh and Rs. 16.58 lakh respectively. The Telugu version’s performance is particularly interesting because Malayalam had occupied the second position in both Sunday’s final and Monday’s latest advance-booking snapshots. However, Tuesday’s figures reveal a different trend, with Telugu moving into the lead among the South Indian languages. In fact, Telugu has generated approximately 54.5% more advance revenue than Malayalam.
Perhaps the most fascinating finding comes from the Telugu format-wise breakup. The Telugu standard 2D version has generated Rs. 19.95 lakh nett, outperforming Telugu standard 3D, which has collected Rs. 12.78 lakh. This is noteworthy because 3D has traditionally dominated Ramayana‘s advance-booking revenue across languages. In Telugu, however, standard 2D has emerged as the bigger contributor in the latest Tuesday snapshot.
On Tuesday, all 3D formats have collectively generated approximately Rs. 1.87 crores nett, accounting for 66.06% of the advance-booking revenue. In comparison, non-3D formats have contributed approximately Rs. 96 lakh, representing 33.94%. This marks a notable change from Monday’s snapshot, when 3D accounted for 75.69% of advance revenue.
