Ranbir’s Ramayana Day 1: Why the Numbers Feel a Little Quiet

Ranbir Kapoor and Yash in a scene from the movie Ramayana
  • Ranbir and Yash hit the big screen together.
  • The Day 1 box office numbers are finally in.
  • It is struggling to beat Animal and Adipurush.

We just saw the first-day report for the new Ramayana movie. Everyone was waiting for this one. Ranbir Kapoor and Yash on one screen? It sounded like a total win.

But the theater response was mixed. Some fans loved it. Others stayed home. It is currently struggling to beat the opening records of Adipurush or Animal. That is a tough spot.

The movie looks beautiful though. It has a very dreamy, soft gold aesthetic. It feels like looking at a classic painting of an old temple. The vibe is definitely there. We love how the colors pop on the big screen.

Before the release, the buzz was huge. We even saw that Rashmika and Vijay are Hyped for Ranbir’s Ramayana!. It seems the celebrity fans were more excited than the general public on day one.

The world of fame is always full of surprises. While Ranbir deals with box office numbers, others are dealing with personal drama. For instance, Zac Affleck admits he messed up in his marriage. Life moves fast. Even for the son of a big shot who just got a gig with the Lakers farm team.

Our Take

We think it’s a bit too early to panic. The movie is a visual treat. Maybe the crowd just needs a few more days to catch the fever. It’s art, after all. Art takes time to breathe.
