Sony’s “Godzilla Minus Zero” leads the international box office after a weekend opening that several outlets describe as $63 million worldwide, while “Ramayana: Rise of a Legend” follows with a reported $55.7 million worldwide debut. Coverage presents the releases as competing global draws, each performing strongly in key markets.
Several reports highlight where each film leads regionally. Variety says “Ramayana” makes history by topping the U.K. and Ireland box office at a reported £2.1 million, while “Godzilla Minus Zero” is pushed down to third there. Other outlets emphasize “Godzilla Minus Zero” taking the global lead and describe “Ramayana” as benefiting from strong international interest.
Deadline and Variety also frame the comparison in terms of audience experience and cinema formats, noting historic attendance on premium large-format and IMAX screens. NDTV and India Today focus more directly on the head-to-head results, with India Today stressing “Godzilla Minus Zero” beating “Ramayana” in the U.S. and taking the global box-office crown.
