Avatar: Fire And Ash Faces Tough Competition, Slows Down
23 Dec
Summary
- Avatar: Fire And Ash faced a 55% drop on its first Monday.
- The film has earned 75.80 crore net in India so far.
- It is now the 4th highest-grossing Hollywood film in India.
Avatar: Fire And Ash, released in India on December 19, 2025, has encountered mixed reviews and a notable dip in its opening week box office performance. The film experienced a sharp 55% decline on its first Monday, with collections dropping to an estimated 8.54 crores, significantly less than its opening day earnings of 19 crores. This performance indicates a challenging theatrical run ahead, exacerbated by lukewarm audience buzz.
Currently, the epic science fiction film is facing competition from Dhurandhar in the Indian market. Its box office journey is projected to become more arduous as it prepares to contend with the Bollywood release "Tu Meri Main Tera Tu Meri" starting December 25, 2025, which may impact its screen availability. The total net collection for the film in India has reached 75.80 crore, with gross earnings approximating 89.44 crores.
Despite the slower-than-expected pace, Avatar: Fire And Ash has achieved a milestone by surpassing the lifetime gross of The Conjuring: Last Rites (82.11 crores). It now holds the position of the 4th highest-grossing Hollywood film in India for 2025. The next box office target for the film is to surpass Jurassic World Rebirth's collection of 100.56 crores and secure a spot in the top three highest-grossing Hollywood films of the year in India.
