Avatar: Fire and Ash Advance Sales Hit 2.25 Lakh Tickets at Indian National Chains
New Delhi, December 18, 2025 — James Cameron’s Avatar: Fire and Ash has generated strong pre-release buzz in India, with advance ticket sales at major national cinema chains crossing 2.25 lakh (225,000) tickets ahead of its December 19 release.
According to box office tracking, the third installment of the Avatar franchise has seen significant weekend pre-sales across leading multiplex chains such as PVR, INOX and Cinepolis, indicating solid interest from audiences nationwide.
Although these figures are substantial, they trail the pre-release momentum of Avatar: The Way of Water, which previously recorded higher advance numbers in India. Still, the film’s weekend booking pattern suggests strong audience engagement, with many reserves expected to convert into first-day and opening weekend footfalls.
With Avatar: Fire and Ash releasing in multiple languages and formats, including IMAX and premium screens, industry analysts anticipate a robust performance at the Indian box office — bolstered by the franchise’s long-standing popularity in the market.
The film’s advance numbers highlight the ongoing enthusiasm among Indian moviegoers for big-screen cinematic experiences and set the stage for what could be one of the year’s most talked-about releases.
