Awarapan 2 Box Office: Emraan Hashmi’s Comeback Sequel Just Crossed Rs 115 Crore — And It’s Not Slowing Down

Emraan Hashmi is having a moment. Awarapan 2, the long-awaited follow-up to his 2007 cult classic, has powered through its second Friday with barely a dent in collections — proof that word-of-mouth, not just opening-day hype, is driving this one.

Day 8: A Hold Worth Talking About

The film added Rs. 4.75 crore on its second Friday, just a 10–12% dip from the day before — a strong signal heading into the weekend. That pushes the 8-day nett total to Rs. 116.25 crore.

Trade watchers now expect the second weekend to close near Rs. 20 crore, taking the running total to roughly Rs. 130 crore, with a full-run target of Rs. 150 crore nett — assuming it keeps holding steady against the incoming Yash-starrer Toxic.

Why This Sequel’s Success Is So Unusual

Here’s the twist: the original Awarapan flopped hard at the box office in 2007 before earning cult status over the years. A sequel to a commercial disaster becoming a certified Super Hit is close to unprecedented in Bollywood — and it’s reviving an entire genre of intense musical love stories that once made Emraan Hashmi one of the industry’s most bankable stars in the early 2010s.
