Speaking about his experience of entering the world of Pandora, Sukumar said, "James Cameron, he is from Pandora. For directors, he is an Avatar, we are just humans. Telling a story so powerfully in science fiction is extremely difficult. I feel the entire family can come and watch it together. It's a complete entertainer. Three hours and seventeen minutes just flew away. I watched it alone, but didn't feel alone. I felt like I had gone to Pandora, like I was in a different world. I didn't even notice who was around me or who wasn't. It's an absolute blockbuster. It has as much emotion as a Telugu film, every frame has so much emotion. The emotion between the characters is always flowing. The main characters like Jake, or Neyitri, or Varang, and these are all characters, and Spider... I was continuously immersing myself in these characters. At some moments, my eyes were filled with tears, this is what a theatre experience truly is, this is the movie. We cannot watch James Cameron movies on TV, the visuals won't be sufficient unless it's such a big screen. This experience we won't get it anywhere else but only in a theatre. So, for giving such a wonderful feast to the theatre, we are very thankful to James Cameron. Thank you, thank you very much."

Directed by James Cameron, who co-wrote the screenplay with Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver from a story the trio wrote with Josh Friedman and Shane Salerno. Distributed by 20th Century Studios and produced by Lightstorm Entertainment, it is the sequel to Avatar: The Way of Water (2022) and the third installment in the Avatar franchise.
