Sai Pallavi has marked her second release of the year with Ramayana: Part 1. The epic is expected to set the box office ringing and register new records. Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, the film also stars Ranbir Kapoor and Yash. It is one of the most expensive films ever made in India, with an estimated budget of 4,000 crore. While Sai Pallavi begins the month with Ramayana, she will be wrapping it up with the highly anticipated Tamil film Om, which also stars Dhanush and Mammootty.

Sai Pallavi began the year with the film Ek Din, which marked her Bollywood debut. The film also starred Junaid Khan in the lead. However, the film did not receive much love at the box office, nor did it impress critics. The film earned only 4.3 crore net in India, bringing its gross domestic collections to 5.07 crore. Overseas, the film earned 45 lakh, bringing its worldwide total to 5.52 crore. But with her two November releases, she is expected to turn the tables at the box office.

Can Sai Pallavi Beat Mamitha Baiju’s 2026 Total?

Sai Pallavi is among the top South Indian actresses who have three releases this year. While Nayanthara has the most number of releases in 2026, with five films, Mamitha Baiju and Rashmika Mandanna have four and three releases, respectively. Mamitha Baiju is currently dominating the box office, with all four of her films grossing over 200 crore worldwide.

Mamitha Baiju began the year with the Tamil film Kara, which grossed over 50 crore worldwide. She followed it up with Thalapathy Vijay’s film Jana Nayagan. She had her third Tamil release with Suriya in Vishwanath & Sons. Her final release of the year was the Malayalam movie Bethlehem Kudumba Unit, which became an industry grosser, earning over 300 crore.

Take a look at Mamitha Baiju’s box-office run in 2026 (Worldwide):

  • Kara – 54.82 crore
  • Jana Nayagan – 327.81 crore
  • Vishwanath & Sons – 212.34 crore
  • Bethlehem Kudumba Unit – 333.09 crore

Total – 928.06 crore

 Sai Pallavi’s Power-Packed November

Sai Pallavi has arrived on the big screen as Sita in the epic Ramayana: Part 1. The film crossed 50 crore worldwide in advance bookings alone and is expected to witness significant growth over its opening weekend owing to the Diwali holidays. The film is also receiving strong positive reactions from audiences. It is well on track to cross the 500-crore mark worldwide, and possibly even more.

Additionally, Om also has the potential to hit a century at the box office. The film’s performance will depend on its word-of-mouth. Meanwhile, Ramayana will have to do the heavy lifting for Sai Pallavi if she hopes to match Mamitha Baiju’s worldwide total.
