AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER was steady again on Wednesday as it collected 15 crore nett which takes it over 175 crore nett to 177.50 crore nett. The first week business of the film will be in the 190 crore nett range though the Hindi circuits will still be under 100 crore nett.

The film is all set to emerge a BLOCKBUSTER and the collections on the second Friday should confirm that. Even if Friday comes out a bit lower, it will not really matter as there will be the holiday weekend to make up lost ground.

Despite these huge results for the film, there is slight disappointment as to how the Hindi circuits have performed as a better performance would have taken it to another level. The AVENGERS: ENDGAME collections were never on in the Hindi circuits. But it should have beaten AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR and at present it is struggling to do so though there are two holiday weekends to come.

The first six day collections of AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER are as follows.

Friday - 40,00,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 40,50,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 47,00,00,000 apprx

Monday -  18,75,00,000 apprx

Tuesday - 16,25,00,000 apprx

Wednesday - 15,00,00,000 apprx
