Emraan Hashmi has officially proven that his romantic-thriller charm remains completely unmatched at the ticket counters! His highly anticipated sequel, Awarapan 2, is currently in its second week and showing no signs of slowing down.
Despite facing stiff competition from Sunny Deol and Rajkumar Santoshi’s high-octane drama Batwara 1947, the Nitin Kakkar directorial is winning the box office battle. Capitalizing heavily on nostalgia and a brilliant recreation of its iconic original soundtrack, the film has managed to consistently pull audiences into theaters.

According to Sacnilk estimates, Awarapan 2 recorded a significant 43.5% growth compared to Friday, minting a solid Rs 8.25 crore (India Net) across more than 10,000 shows on Day 9.

Surviving the Batwara 1947 Clash
What makes Awarapan 2‘s box office run even more impressive is the fact that it debuted alongside a massive period film, Batwara 1947.
While both films found their respective audiences, Awarapan 2 clearly took the lead. The decision to bring back Emraan Hashmi as the brooding Shivam Pandit, paired with Disha Patani’s fresh chemistry and Shabana Azmi’s powerful supporting performance, struck the right chord. By expanding on the 2007 cult classic’s emotional and musical legacy, the makers effectively drew in both loyal franchise fans and younger multiplex audiences.
With the crucial second Sunday coming up, all eyes are on Awarapan 2 to see how high its lifetime collections will soar!
