Indian cinema is entering an era of record spending, with the reported combined budgets of several major productions crossing Rs 4,000 crore. Nitesh Tiwari's two-part Ramayana tops the list, with a reported budget of Rs 4,000 crore including both films as well as release and promotional costs, according to Yash.
Other high-budget films on the list include The Greatest of All Time (GOAT) and Brahmāstra: Part One, Shiva. The ambitious projects feature massive sets, cutting-edge visual effects and star-studded casts.
Indian Opinion Analysis
This reported spending surge reflects India's growing confidence in big-ticket franchise filmmaking, which has traditionally been dominated by Hollywood. The Ramayana budget alone rivals the production cost of a mid-range Hollywood blockbuster. The two-part adaptation of the Hindu epic is being directed by Nitesh Tiwari, best known for the hit Dangal. The success or failure of these mega-budget films will likely set a benchmark for future industry investment, with box office returns watched closely by financiers and studios.
