Box Office EXPLOSION Continues: James Cameron’s Avatar: Fire And Ash Sells 1.85 Lakh Tickets by Day 2 Night; Momentum Accelerates Sharply
James Cameron’s Avatar: Fire And Ash is showing no signs of slowing down at the Indian box office. If anything, the pace has only intensified. As the film moves into Day 2 of advance bookings, ticket sales have surged further, firmly cementing its status as a major theatrical event.
As of 11:30 PM on Day 2, Avatar: Fire And Ash has sold a massive 1,85,000 tickets across national multiplex chains (PVR INOX + Cinepolis), combining English and Hindi versions. The steady climb from Day 1 to Day 2 clearly indicates that the film has entered its accelerated demand phase, where bookings typically scale up rapidly with each passing hour.
This sharp rise in advance sales places the film on course to comfortably cross 2 lakh admissions before release day, a milestone achieved only by the biggest Hollywood spectacles in the Indian market. The trend strongly suggests that audience interest is widening rather than plateauing.
What is particularly encouraging is the broad-based growth across formats and regions. While IMAX, 3D, and premium large formats continue to lead in value terms, regular 2D screens and dubbed versions have now picked up significant momentum. This expansion signals that Fire And Ash is moving beyond metro-driven demand into a truly pan-India play.
Southern markets continue to dominate contributions, staying true to the Avatar franchise’s historical strength. However, Hindi-speaking belts and key urban centres are now showing visibly stronger traction, pointing toward robust national reach. As release day approaches, spot bookings and family audiences are expected to further boost footfalls.
Based on current trajectories, trade confidence around a ₹30–35 crore opening day continues to strengthen. With advance sales already at this level by Day 2 night, Avatar: Fire And Ash is firmly positioned to emerge as the biggest Hollywood opener of the year in India, surpassing recent international releases with ease.
While matching Avatar: The Way Of Water’s all-time benchmarks remains a tall order, the present trend firmly establishes Fire And Ash as a top-tier cinematic spectacle with exceptional box office potential. Strong premium-format demand, expanding mass participation, and sustained booking velocity all point toward a powerful opening.
With 1.85 lakh tickets already sold by Day 2 night and momentum building relentlessly, Avatar: Fire And Ash isn’t just preparing for release it is accelerating toward takeoff.
Pandora is ready to light up Indian cinemas once again.
