The film opened at Rs 22 crore net on day 1, then jumped 50% to Rs 33 crore on day 2. Times of India notes this gives Awarapan 2 a 50% day-on-day growth. NDTV Profit puts the day 2 jump at 53.4%, taking India gross to Rs 66.90 crore. The sequel has already surpassed lifetime collections of Emraan Hashmi's earlier hits like Murder 2 and Jannat 2. Directed by Nitin Kakkar and produced by Vishesh Bhatt, the film faces competition from Sunny Deol's Batwara 1947 and Hollywood's Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Overseas collections have been modest at over $650,000 from the Middle East and North America. The film is expected to cross Rs 70 crore net in India by day 3 evening.
