The Story in Brief
Emraan Hashmi-starrer Awarapan 2 earned around Rs 15.21 crore net by 5 pm on Saturday, taking its reported two-day total to over Rs 37.21 crore, according to Sacnilk, as cited by Hindustan Times. The film opened with Rs 22 crore on Friday, Hashmi’s biggest opening as a lead actor.
Saturday morning shows recorded 32% occupancy across India, rising to 70% in the afternoon. The film has already surpassed the lifetime collections of Hashmi films including Jannat, Raaz 2 and Ek Thi Daayan. Directed by Nitin Kakkar, Awarapan 2 also stars Shabana Azmi, Disha Patani and Suvinder Vicky.
The Indian Opinion
The early numbers have encouraged claims that Hashmi has reclaimed his box-office position, while some dismiss the film’s performance as nostalgia-driven. Both readings are premature. Saturday figures were still estimates before the full day closed, and occupancy can rise sharply during evening shows. The more useful measure will be the film’s Monday hold after its opening weekend, when the nostalgia around the Awarapan name cannot carry every show.
