James Cameron’s film Avatar: Fire and Ash created a storm at the Indian box office on its opening day. It delivered the biggest surprise as the year draws to a close. The film has emerged as the biggest opening Hollywood release in India this year.
Even in the presence of a blockbuster like Dhurandhar, the film is registering impressive collections. It is performing well across different Indian languages as well as its English version on the second day.
On day two itself, the film has broken several records set by major Hollywood releases this year. Let’s take a look at its box office earnings and the records it has already shattered.
The film collected Rs. 19 crore on its opening day. According to Sacnilk, on the second day, the film earned Rs. 22.35 crores.
On day three, as of 9:45 am, the film has already earned Rs. 1.62 crores. This has made its total collection to be around Rs. 42.97 crore. It should be noted that today’s figures are not final and may see changes.
The film has surpassed the India lifetime collections of several major Hollywood films released this year. The list includes Thunderbolts, which earned Rs. 22.39 crore; How to Train Your Dragon, which minted Rs. 25.69 crore; and The Fantastic Four: First Steps, which saw an earning of Rs. 27.91 crore.
The film’s next target is DC’s Superman 3D, released earlier this year, which earned Rs. 49.53 crore in India. Avatar: Fire and Ash is expected to break this record within its opening weekend.
The film is the next installment after Avatar (2009) and Avatar: The Way of Water (2022). Critics have majorly applauded the film for its stunning visuals and sound effects. However, some felt that the high runtime stretched out the plot unnecessarily.
