Mumbai. Fans are diving into the magical world of Pandora of James Cameron. Amidst the news of online leak, the audience is showering love on the film. On the very first day, the business of the film all over the world is showing that people were eagerly waiting for the film. According to reports, ‘Avatar: The Way Of Water’ has crossed the figure of 124 million dollars worldwide. At the same time, if film experts are to be believed, this film can cross the mark of 400 million dollars in the opening weekend.
The first part of the film, which released in 2009, attracted the audience a lot. This was the reason that ever since there was talk of making the second part of the film, people were waiting for its release. Finally, the film was released on Friday, 16th December and created new earning records. According to the report of BollyReviews, ‘Avatar 2’ has become the second highest Hollywood opener movie after the first day’s earnings. The first day collection of the film has been Rs 40 to 45 crores.
‘Avatar 2’ lagged behind ‘KGF 2’
Even though the second part of the film ‘Avatar’ is crazy among the people, it could not break the record of the South film ‘KGF’ Chapter 2 on the first day. According to E Times, ‘Avatar: The Way of Water’ did a business of around Rs 40 crore on the first day. The same ‘KGF 2’ did a business of Rs 53 crore on the opening day. That means, it can be said that there is more craze for South films than Hollywood among the audience.
The film has a special fan following in India.
This Hollywood film has a huge fan following in India also. There was a lot of craze among the Indian audience to watch the film here. Talking about the collection of the film in different parts of India, the first day collection of the film was good at all places. It was Rs 8 to 10 crore in Andhra Pradesh, Rs 4 to 6 crore in Karnataka, Rs 3 to 5 crore in Tamil Nadu, Rs 2 to 2.5 crore in Kerala and Rs 15 to 16 crore in Hindi belt. That means overall the film did a business of Rs 32 to 34 crore in India alone.
The ticket is expensive and that’s why…
Let us tell you that the first part of the film, which was released in 2009, had earned Rs 100 crore. In such a situation, expectations have also increased regarding the second part of the film. Although the first day’s earnings were estimated to be Rs 45 to 50 crores, the opening of the film was less than expected. The film could not break the record of ‘Avengers Endgame’ but the film earned more than the opening collections of ‘Spiderman: Far for Home’, ‘Avengers Infinity War’ and ‘Brahmastra’. Expensiveness of movie tickets is also considered to be an important reason for affecting its business. The movie ticket was up to Rs 2500.
