Awarapan 2 box office collection day 4: Emraan Hashmi -starrer Awarapan 2 has continued its strong run at the box office, showing a healthy hold on its first Monday. After a big opening weekend, the sequel has now crossed the ₹ 90 crore net mark in India within just four days of its release. The film hit theatres on August 14 alongside Sunny Deol’s Batwara 1947 and has clearly taken the lead in the box office clash.
Disha Patani and Shabana Azmi feature in important roles, while the cast also includes Puran Gabbi, Anirudh Rawal, Surendar Vicky, Vijayant Kohli and Atul Kumar. Directed by Nitin Kakkar and produced by Vishesh Bhatt, Awarapan 2 brings Emraan Hashmi back as Shiv Pandit nearly 19 years after the original film.
Awarapan 2 had a major drop on its first Monday, according to trade tracker Sacnilk. The sequel collected ₹ 9.25 crore net in India on Day 4 from 10,849 shows, with overall occupancy of 22%. This was a 64.4% drop from Sunday’s ₹ 26 crore. With Monday’s earnings, the film has now taken its India net collection to ₹ 91 crore in just four days. The film had started its box office journey on a strong note, opening with ₹ 22 crore net on Friday. It picked up pace on Saturday, recording a massive jump and earning ₹ 33.75 crore, helped by the Independence Day holiday. On Sunday, the film added another ₹ 26 crore, taking its three-day total to ₹ 81.75 crore net. The contrast with its clash release Batwara 1947 is also hard to miss. Sunny Deol’s film managed only ₹ 2 crore net on the same day, taking its four-day total to ₹ 28.50 crore While Awarapan 2 added ₹ 9.25 crore on its first Monday. The gap between the two films has widened considerably, with Awarapan 2 now firmly leading the box office race. Trade estimates currently put its lifetime India net collection in the ₹ 150-160 crore range, although a sustained run in the coming days could push the film considerably higher.
