Avatar 2 early Box Office Collection Day 1: James Cameron's film set for an outstanding start

Avatar 2 has finally been released in theatres after much anticipation. It has received a sizable number from advance bookings, and early reports indicate that it will have a strong opening weekend at the box office.

In India, Avatar 2 has played on more than 3800 screens, with over 17000 shows each day. It boasts the greatest advance of any Hollywood film scheduled for release in India in 2022. In total, the movie has sold 7.3L tickets totaling Rs. 20.94 Cr. It has outperformed films like Thor 4 (Rs. 14 Cr.) and Doctor Strange 2 (Rs 19.80 Cr) in terms of day 1 advance bookings collections.

According to media sources, Avatar 2 tickets cost a whopping Rs 2500 at premium multiplexes. Earlier, some regions in the National Capital Region sold out of the Rs 2500 seats for Black Panther 2. Additionally, premium multiplexes sold tickets for Spiderman: No Way Home and Brahmastra for prices exceeding Rs 2000.

The current reports on advance bookings and the early trends indicate that Avatar 2 will have the highest opening for a Hollywood movie in India ever. According to the current situation, it will quickly surpass Spider-Man: No Way Home's first-day collections in India. However, it will be difficult for the film to surpass the opening day collection of Avangers: Endgame of Rs 53.10 Cr.

Early predictions tell that Avatar 2 would gross between 35 and 40 Cr nett on its opening day in India. And based on current trends, it would likely gross between Rs 120 and Rs 135 in its first weekend.

Avatar: The Way of Water, the follow-up to Avatar, was released on December 16, more than a decade later. The movie follows the lives of Jake, Neytiri, and their children, who make up the Sully family. The scenario is based on how Sullys responds to Quaritch and his tribe attacking them in Steven Lang's novel. The focus of the sequel is mainly on preserving families and focusing on interpersonal ties. Leading actors in the movie include Sam Worthington, Sigourney Weaver, Zoe Saldana, and Kate Winslet. The film is currently playing in theatres in English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam.
