Ranbir Kapoor’s Ramayana is smashing the box office in both domestic and overseas markets. Produced by Namit Malhotra, the big-budget Indian epic has created a new record on BookMyShow for the highest number of tickets sold in a single hour.

Ramayana recorded 122.3K ticket sales per hour on BookMyShow, beating the previous record held by another Bollywood film, Dhurandhar 2 (109K). This is an all-time record for an Indian movie, and the film is now heading towards more box-office milestones. As expected, the ticket sales are pointing towards big numbers on Monday and in the coming days.

Made on a massive budget and scale, the VFX-rich film features Sai Pallavi as Sita and Yash as Ravana. Ravi Dubey, Sunny Deol, Arun Govil, Lara Dutta, Indira Krishnan, Kajal Aggarwal, Rakul Preet Singh, Vivek Oberoi, Kunal Kapoor, Sheeba Chaddha and Anupam Kher are also part of the film. Hans Zimmer and AR Rahman have jointly composed the music.
