'Avatar 3' ticket sales heat up ahead of release in India

Entertainment Dec 18, 2025

James Cameron's Avatar: Fire and Ash is already making waves before its December 19, 2025, premiere, with nearly 1 lakh tickets sold for day one at major Indian chains.
Weekend pre-sales have reached a solid 2.25 lakh, showing fans are eager to return to Pandora.

Not quite matching 'Avatar 2,' but weekend buzz is strong

Even with the excitement, Avatar: Fire and Ash's first-day sales are behind Avatar: The Way of Water, which had a much bigger opening.
Still, thanks to its loyal fanbase—second only to Marvel in India—the movie is expected to perform strongly at the weekend box office as more people grab tickets over the next few days.
