American actress Zoe Saldana has created history and havoc at the box-office with the blockbuster success of Avatar: The Way Of Water and Avengers: Endgame. With the record-breaking collections of these two giant films, she has become the only actress to have 4 $2 billion films, the other two being Avatar (2009) and Avengers: Infinity War (2018).

Avatar amassed $2.92 billion at the box-office in 2009, Avengers: Endgame comes at the second position with $2.97 billion, Avengers: Infinity War made $2.04 billion, and Avatar: The Way Of Water is the newest entrant.

When it comes to the all-time worldwide box office, two of Cameron’s movies have impeccably made it to the top three. While 2009 Avatar occupied the first spot, Cameron’s 1997 piece of work Titanic is in third place. If you are wondering which film takes the second place, it’s Marvel’s Avengers: Endgame.

Avatar: The Way of Water follows the life of Jake Sully and Neytiri, who are seen doing everything possible to keep their family together. In addition, the two were also seen taking on an ancient threat that forces them to fight against humans.

The James Cameron directorial surpassed biggies like Spider-Man: No Way Home (Rs 32.67 crore), Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (Rs 32.74 crore) and others to emerge the second-biggest Hollywood opener in India with collections of Rs 41 crore after Avengers: Endgame (Rs 53.10 crore).

With nett collections of around Rs 134 crore in its opening weekend, it turned out to be the second-highest first weekend grosser of the year in India after KGF 2, which raked in Rs 193.99 crore (4-day weekend). It has shattered biggies like Brahmastra: Part 1 Shiva, RRR, and others to achieve this feat.
