Why is screening affected in Chennai?

However, theatre owners in Chennai announced on social media that Avatar: The Way of Water would not be screening in their establishments because they were unable to reach an amicable agreement with Disney Studios, the movie’s distributor. Some of the well-known theatres in Chennai that were unable to show the movie included Vetri Theatres, AGS Cinemas, and GK Cinemas.

#Avatar2 Not Happening in #Vettri due to disagreement of terms😞
Though I offered a premium from the usual Hollywood terms (incl Endgame) the distribution is not ready to budge down from their stand.
We’ve supported @DisneyStudiosIN so much in the past but EOD it’s business.

Very disappointed that #AvatarTheWayOfWater will not be playing at @agscinemas as we could not agree to the terms offered to us. Will definitely miss watching this film on the big screen.
