November 5 or 6? Ranbir Kapoor's Ramayana ends release confusion with a big ticket update

Date drama

After weeks of conflicting release dates, the makers of Ranbir Kapoor's Ramayana: Part One have finally cleared the air. The film will hit cinemas worldwide on November 5, 2026, ending speculation triggered by an international trailer that had earlier pointed to November 6.

Booking countdown

Fans waiting to watch Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama now have another important date to remember. The makers have confirmed that advance ticket bookings will open on Dussehra, giving audiences an early opportunity to secure seats for one of the year's most anticipated theatrical releases.

Preview mystery

Will audiences get to watch Ramayana before its official release? Earlier reports suggested paid previews in India on November 4, a day before the worldwide opening. However, the latest announcement confirms November 5 as the release date without clarifying whether those early screenings will happen.

Star showdown

Ranbir Kapoor takes on the role of Lord Rama, while Sai Pallavi plays Sita and Yash transforms into Ravana. Sunny Deol appears as Hanuman and Ravie Dubey as Lakshman. With such a major ensemble bringing the epic to life, the film's casting has become a talking point ahead of its release.

Epic gamble

Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana is not being planned as a single-film spectacle. The mythological epic will unfold across two parts, with the second instalment scheduled for Diwali 2027. The first film will arrive in five Indian languages, including an IMAX release, as its makers prepare for a worldwide theatrical rollout.
