Kochi: The Film Exhibitors United Organization of Kerala has announced that 'Avatar: The Way of Water’, the sequel to the 2009 movie ‘Avatar’ will be released in Kerala. The most-awaited movie will hit the theatres on December 16 as FEUOK finally solved its disagreement with the distributors of the movie.
