Ranbir Kapoor’s Ramayana – Part I has crossed the Rs. 300 crore mark at the Indian box office in just five days, making it his fastest film to enter the coveted Rs. 300 crore club. The Nitesh Tiwari-directed mythological epic now joins Sanju (2018) and Animal (2023) as the third film in Ranbir Kapoor’s career to achieve this milestone.

With this, he becomes only the third actor in Indian cinema history to deliver three films that have grossed more than Rs. 300 crore nett at the domestic box office — a group previously held by Ranveer Singh and Salman Khan. According to Bollywood Hungama’s data, this achievement places him ahead of Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan, and Sunny Deol in terms of the number of films in the Rs. 300 crore club.

What sets Ranbir’s run apart isn’t just the count, but the variety: Sanju was a biographical drama, Animal an intense action thriller, and Ramayana a grand-scale mythological spectacle. The speed at which Ramayana reached the milestone is particularly striking, while Sanju took 16 days and Animal six, Ramayana achieved it in just five.

That makes it his quickest entry into the club and one of the most rapid ascents for any major release in recent memory. The film’s performance has been described as a cultural moment, with Hema Malini calling the VFX ‘mind-blowing’ and Mahesh Bhatt reportedly moved to tears by Ranbir’s portrayal.

Even as debates swirl online, from comparisons to earlier incarnations of Lord Ram to critiques of casting choices, the numbers don’t lie. The Diwali weekend didn’t just deliver a blockbuster. It redefined what a Kapoor-led film can be. Now, the next question looms: can it cross Rs. 500 crore?
