Ramayana Becomes First Indian Film to Top UK and Ireland Box Office

Sony's animated mythological adventure <b>Ramayana: Rise of a Legend</b> made history by becoming the first Indian feature ever to debut atop the U.K. and Ireland box office. The film collected £2.1 million to lead a crowded slate of new releases and pushed <b>Godzilla Minus Zero</b> into third place. The previous box office ceiling for Indian cinema in the territory was second place, held jointly by films like 'RRR', 'Pathaan', 'Jawan', and 'Dhurandhar: The Revenge'. Additionally, Disney's 'Wild Horse Nine' secured the second position in its opening frame. The massive box office debut highlights the growing international reach and commercial success of Indian cinema in overseas markets. Further box office updates are expected as the film continues its theatrical run.
