Ramayana has crossed $820K in overseas advance bookings, and now the focus shifts to India. Domestic advance bookings are scheduled to open on October 20, with expectations high around the film.
The film has generated considerable buzz with its grand scale and star cast. However, the overseas response alone cannot tell us how it will perform in India. The domestic market will give a clearer picture of audience interest.
The film’s scale and expectations make its opening particularly important. A strong response in advance bookings could indicate that the buzz is translating into ticket sales, while a slower start may raise questions about its reach among Indian audiences.
The response in the first few days of bookings will be closely watched. Ramayana has already attracted overseas attention, but the Indian market is a different test. The big question is whether domestic audiences will show the same enthusiasm once bookings open.
