Will Avatar 3 Change Disney India Fate:
So far, 2025 has been a tough year for Disney in India. None of their releases have managed to become a hit at the Indian box office. Even big Marvel films like Captain America: Brave New World and The Fantastic Four: First Steps, which used to guarantee massive crowds, have failed to make an impact. Earlier, Marvel movies were giving back-to-back hits in India, but in 2025, their films have underperformed.
Disney’s animated films haven’t fared any better. Movies like Snow White (live action remake), Lilo & Stitch, Freakier Friday, and the recent Zootopia 2didn’t create much excitement among Indian audiences. Without a strong fan following for these films, Disney has been struggling to leave a mark in India this year.

The one hope for Disney India remains Avatar Fire and Ash, the third installment in James Cameron’s blockbuster franchise. Avatar Way of Water was a huge success in India, emerging as the highest-grossing Hollywood movie of all time in the country. While the buzz for Avatar 3 is currently lower compared to the second film, there’s still potential for it to become a big hit.

Factors like positive word of mouth and the holiday period during its second week could give it a major boost. James Cameron’s films have historically performed well in India when audiences connect with the spectacle and story, and Avatar 3 could follow the same path.
For Disney, 2025 has been disappointing, but Avatar: Fire and Ash might just change their fortune at the Indian box office and give them their first and only hit of 2025.
