Ramayana Eyes Early 2027 Release Across Four Major International Markets

The upcoming film Ramayana is scheduled for release in China, Russia, Japan and South Korea during the first quarter of 2027. The project stars Ranbir Kapoor and Yash and draws upon mythological roots. Preparations for the international rollout are already moving forward, with the film having been submitted for censor clearance in China. China has previously served as a major market for Indian cinema, generating strong viewer interest and box office figures.

Expansion Strategy

The planned theatrical run in Russia, Japan and South Korea allows the production to reach audiences outside its current overseas regions. Filmmakers are positioning the epic as a major cinematic event in all four territories. The early 2027 window represents a key phase to expand the theatrical reach and boost global box office earnings.

Context

Major Indian film releases increasingly target overseas territories like East Asia and Eastern Europe to diversify their revenue streams beyond domestic earnings. Censor clearance processes in countries such as China often require advance submissions well ahead of an official premiere date.
