‘Awarapan 2’ Box Office Update: Emraan Hashmi Starrer Eyes Rs 150 Crore Milestone Amid Stiff Competition
The high-octane action drama Awarapan 2, starring Emraan Hashmi and Disha Patani, continues to demonstrate impressive staying power at the box office. Having already surpassed the Rs 140 crore mark in India net collections, the film is now setting its sights on the significant Rs 150 crore milestone.
Directed by Nitin Kakkar and produced by Vishesh Films, the sequel to the 2007 cult classic has been a landmark success for Emraan Hashmi, marking his first solo project to cross the coveted Rs 100 crore threshold.
Navigating the ‘Toxic’ Challenge
Despite a strong opening week and a resilient second weekend, the film faces its toughest challenge yet. The August 26 release of Yash’s highly anticipated film, Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups, has significantly impacted the screen count and occupancy for Awarapan 2, particularly in multiplexes and major urban centers.
As of Day 13, the film is running across approximately 481 shows. While this represents a sharp reduction in screen availability, the sequel’s loyal audience base continues to contribute to its steady, albeit slowing, daily earnings. Currently, the film sits at an India net total of Rs 142.98 crore, leaving it roughly Rs 7 crore shy of the Rs 150 crore target.
Performance Breakdown
The journey of Awarapan 2 has been characterized by a explosive start, followed by calculated growth. After an impressive opening day of Rs 22 crore, the film concluded its first week with Rs 113.50 crore net.
The second weekend provided a vital boost, with consistent daily figures that pushed the worldwide gross past the Rs 200 crore mark. By the end of Day 12, the film had reached an India gross of Rs 170.15 crore and a worldwide gross of Rs 201.45 crore, bolstered by healthy overseas contributions.

With a supporting cast that includes Disha Patani and veteran actress Shabana Azmi, combined with a soulful soundtrack, the film has firmly cemented its place as one of the year’s notable hits.
