Mumbai, December 24 - Maverick filmmaker James Cameron, with his sci-fi epic Avatar: The Way of Water, is proving his might once again and there is no one to challenge him at the moment as far as the Indian box office is concerned.

"Avatar 2" was the most anticipated Hollywood film in India ever since it was announced and the excitement for it never dropped despite the covid-19 pandemic. The long wait finally ended with the movie getting released a week ago on December 16, and as expected, Indian thronged to theaters to experience the magical world of Pandora.



The movie opened to the second biggest opening for a Hollywood movie in India with 40.3 crores net for all languages, behind only "Avengers: Endgame" which opened to mighty 53.60 crores net in 2019. Cameron's directorial met with favorable word of mouth and this led the movie to score a huge 128.8 crores net in the opening weekend and 193.6 crores net in the first full week.

There was competition for "Avatar 2" in its second weekend with multiple new releases, including Rohit Shetty's "Cirkus". However, the movie remained unscratched and brought in nearly 60 crores net. "Avengers: Endgame" is currently the highest Hollywood grosser in India with approx. 374 crores net in all languages, and "Avatar 2" has already scored approx. 252 crores in just 10 days.

The underperformance of "Cirkus" has ensured an uninterpreted run till Pongal 2023 when multiple big South Indian films will be released. There are all chances "Avatar 2" may cross Endgame much before Pongal and it looks like an easy 400 crores net earner.

The first "Avatar" movie scored 104 crores net in 2009 and its successor might end up with more than 4X of it.
