Awarapan 2 Box Office Collections: Emraan Hashmi's film closes Week 2 at Rs 29 crore, targets Rs 150 crore finish
Emraan Hashmi's Awarapan 2, directed by Nitin Kakkar, is looking to wrap its entire run around Rs. 150 crore mark in India.
Awarapan 2 witnessed a major drop in its collections on the second Wednesday and Thursday, due to the arrival of Toxic in cinemas. The movie wrapped up its second week at Rs. 29.20 crore, with Thursday contributing just Rs. 50 lakh. However, the movie might see a spike in its collections over the third weekend, as the makers opted for a Buy-One-Get-One offer for the Raksha Bandhan weekend.
The running cume of the Emraan Hashmi starrer reached Rs. 140 crore nett at the Indian box office in 14 days of its theatrical run. Based on current trends, the movie is expected to wind up its entire run around the Rs. 150 crore nett mark or so. Directed by Nitin Kakkar, it has already emerged as a Super Hit venture.
Awarapan 2 is a sequel to the 2007 film, which was a DISASTER upon its original release but later garnered a cult following. When intense love stories with hit music found success last year, it reminded the industry of Emraan Hashmi, who had delivered several films in this space during the 2000s and early 2010s. He was at the peak of his career in the early 2010s with films like Murder 2, Raaz 3, Jannat 2, and Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai, before his fortunes declined through the latter half of the decade.
The revival of the genre eventually led to Awarapan 2 being made, and that decision has paid off handsomely. There is probably no precedent for a sequel to a DISASTER emerging as a HIT. Last year saw former FLOPs like Sanam Teri Kasam and Laila Majnu become HITs through their re-releases, and now a sequel is doing it on a much bigger scale.
The day-wise box office collections of Awarapan 2 in India are as follows:
| Day | Nett |
|---|---|
| Week 1 | Rs. 111.50 cr. |
| 2nd Friday | Rs. 5.25 cr. |
| 2nd Saturday | Rs. 8.00 cr. |
