Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna’s Ranabaali is showing a noticeable jump in North American advance bookings just two days before its theatrical release.
According to the latest update from the overseas distributor, the film has now crossed $175,000 in North American pre-sales. The number marks a significant improvement from the previous day, when the film was around the $100K mark.
Ranabaali Pre-Sales Reach $175K
With Ranabaali scheduled to hit theatres on October 16, 2026, the remaining hours could be important for the film’s advance sales.
The latest jump has given Ranabaali some momentum in the overseas market.
Reports indicate that the movie added around $75,000 in pre-sales over the last 24 hours, taking its North American total to approximately $175K.
That is a healthy improvement in a short period, although the film still has more ground to cover before its premieres.
The increase is particularly important because the movie had a relatively slow start in North American advance bookings.
Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Factor
Ranabaali has several elements working in its favour.
The film brings Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna together again, while director Rahul Sankrityan presents the actors in a period-action setting.
The movie is being produced by Mythri Movie Makers, with Ajay-Atul composing the music.
The combination of the lead pair, the large-scale period setting and the action-oriented promotional material has created curiosity among Telugu moviegoers.
The question now is whether that curiosity will translate into strong theatre occupancy once the film opens.
Why the $175K Number Matters
Pre-sales are not the same as final box-office collections.
They simply show how many tickets have already been purchased before the movie officially opens. Walk-in audiences, reviews and word of mouth can still change the picture considerably after release.
For Ranabaali, the latest jump is nevertheless encouraging.
Going from around $100K to $175K in a short period shows that bookings are picking up as the release gets closer.
There is still time for the number to increase further before the premieres.
Ranabaali Faces Competition From Jailer 2
The timing of the release makes the situation even more interesting.
Rajinikanth’s Jailer 2 is arriving on October 15, just one day before Ranabaali. That means both films will be fighting for attention during the same Dussehra holiday period.
For Ranabaali, the overseas market will be particularly important because the film needs to establish strong momentum beyond its home market.
A good opening followed by positive audience feedback could help the movie maintain its pace during the weekend.
What Happens Next?
The next major milestone will be whether Ranabaali can push its North American pre-sales substantially higher before the first shows begin.
The current $175K figure is encouraging, but it is too early to treat it as a guarantee of a big opening.
The real test will begin once audiences watch the film.
If the period-action drama receives strong reviews and positive word of mouth, advance bookings could be followed by strong walk-in demand. If the response is mixed, the pre-release momentum may not necessarily continue.
For now, however, the latest jump gives Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna’s film something positive to build on.

Final Take
Ranabaali may have started slowly in the North American market, but the latest numbers show that bookings are gaining momentum.
Crossing $175K before release is a positive development, especially with two days still remaining. The bigger question is whether the film can turn this late booking surge into a strong opening at the box office.
With Vijay Deverakonda, Rashmika Mandanna and Rahul Sankrityan coming together for a large-scale period action film, all eyes will now be on the first-day response.
The advance bookings have picked up. Now the audience verdict will decide how far Ranabaali can go.
