Emraan Hashmi’s Awarapan 2 hit theaters on August 14, and the internet wasted no time weighing in. Directed by Nitin Kakkar, the sequel to the 2007 cult classic is splitting opinion — but there’s one thing almost everyone agrees on: Emraan Hashmi still owns this role.
From nostalgic praise to sharp criticism of the villain and screenplay, here’s a quick roundup of what real audience reactions are saying before you book your tickets.
What Awarapan 2 Twitter Is Saying
| Reaction Theme | What Viewers Said | Rating Given |
|---|---|---|
| Sincere but predictable | Praised Hashmi’s return as Shivam Pandit and the music, but felt the story played it safe | 3/5 |
| Strong lead, weak support | Called Hashmi’s performance flawless, but felt Disha Patani and Shabana Azmi deserved meatier material; villain came off unintentionally funny | Not specified |
| Mixed but positive | Praised the twists, called the climax “mind-blowing,” wanted punchier dialogues, recommended a theatrical watch | 3.5/5 |
| Disappointed | Said Hashmi was the only standout; found the villain weak and the music forgettable | 2.5/5 |
The Story So Far
Awarapan 2 picks up years after the original, following Shivam Pandit as he quietly raises an abandoned girl he names Aaliyah — after his first love. When she’s kidnapped by a syndicate following her foster parents’ deaths, Shivam is pulled back into the underworld, traveling to Bangkok and infiltrating a gang led by Zorawar, whose sister Zara becomes entangled in his life.
Should You Watch It?
The consensus is clear: go for Emraan Hashmi, stay for the nostalgia, but temper expectations on the screenplay and villain. For more Twitter reactions and reviews before you book tickets, check out TechnoSports.
