Avatar still rules the box-office

MUMBAI: A week after its release, James Cameron‘s Avatar still reigns the Indian box-office with its 10-day collection totaling a whopping Rs 500 million that makes the film the fourth-biggest Hollywood film ever in India.

Not only has Avatar broken box-office records of Hollywood films like of 2012, Titanic and Spiderman 3 but also ranks No. 7 amongst the big Bollywood films in India surpassing the opening week collections of top Hindi films like All The Best, Kaminey, Delhi 6 and New York. The film has, in fact, beaten the openings of recent high profile Hindi films like Rocket Singh and Paa as well.

The epic action adventure has broken several records in India and abroad and is still going strong at the box-office.

In the overseas circuit, the film collected $620 million worldwide with a cumulative drop of just 10 per cent from last week.

Released on 18 December across India, Avatar earned a record Rs 10 million through its paid previews across India, the highest for any Hollywood film in India. The film then created a record by grossing Rs 67 million on the opening day itself, making it the biggest ever Friday opening for any Hollywood film in India.
