Nitesh Tiwari’s two-part Ramayana (Part 1) begins advance ticket sales ahead of its November 5, 2026 theatrical release. Multiple outlets report early strong pre-bookings internationally, with NDTV saying the film crosses $1 million in overseas pre-sales and Free Press Journal and Times of India similarly citing significant overseas ticket demand. Domestic coverage focuses on when sales started and the early schedules and pricing being listed on major platforms.

In India, Free Press Journal details that bookings start about 16 days before release and highlights show timings, including very early 6 am screenings in Mumbai and additional late-night slots around 11:59 pm. Another Free Press Journal report emphasises the highest currently listed ticket price for a Mumbai show and notes convenience fees. Times of India and NDTV also report that advance bookings are available across multiple languages and that paid premiere or preview programming is planned around the release date.

Separate coverage describes distribution and promotional moments: Times of India reports Telugu distributor Dil Raju leads the release for Telugu audiences and includes a viral on-stage mix-up during promotions. Overall, outlets broadly agree on the release date and the early advance-booking momentum, while differing in which domestic specifics (timings, pricing, platforms) they foreground.
