The mythological epic film Ramayana: Part One will be made available on JioCinema’s pay‑per‑view platform after completing its theatrical window, according to Bollywood Hungama.
Ramayana: Part One, the first installment of the high‑budget mythological series, is set to move to digital after its cinema run. Bollywood Hungama reports that the film will be offered on JioCinema’s pay‑per‑view service once the standard theatrical window closes.
The pay‑per‑view model allows viewers to purchase a one‑time access pass, a strategy increasingly used by Indian studios to extend revenue beyond box‑office collections. JioCinema, part of the Jio Platforms ecosystem, has been positioning itself as a premium streaming destination for big‑screen releases.
Industry observers note that the timing aligns with the growing trend of hybrid releases, where films enjoy a full theatrical stint before entering the OTT space. The exact pricing and release date have not been disclosed, but the move is expected to broaden the film’s audience across the country.
