Some films get a second chance — and make it count. Awarapan 2, starring Emraan Hashmi and Disha Patani, has crossed the Rs. 136 crore nett mark in just 11 days, holding strong even into its second Monday at the Indian box office.

A Steady, Confident Run

The film dipped only 40% from its second Friday to Monday, pulling in roughly Rs. 2.75-3 crore on day 11. That took its second-week tally to Rs. 24.75 crore, adding to a solid opening week of Rs. 111.50 crore. Directed by Vishesh Bhatt, the movie is now expected to close its theatrical run near the Rs. 150 crore nett mark, having already been declared a Super Hit.

What makes this run remarkable is the source material: the original 2007 “Awarapan” was a box office disaster that later found cult status. A sequel outperforming its predecessor by this margin is rare — proof that nostalgia, when paired with a good script, can outshine the original.

This resurgence also marks a career revival for Emraan Hashmi, who dominated the intense-love-story genre in the early 2010s with hits like Murder 2 and Jannat 2 before a mid-decade slump. You can read more about Emraan Hashmi’s career journey on Wikipedia for context on his comeback arc.
