# Awarapan 2 earns Rs 136 crore in India in 10 days 2026-08-24T06:21:07+00:00 | Entertainment | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 2 independent outlets Emraan Hashmi's Awarapan 2 has earned Rs 136.25 crore net in India in 10 days, with the film crossing the Rs 100 crore mark in its opening week. Directed by Nitin Kakkar, the sequel collected Rs 8.75 crore net on its second Sunday, taking its second weekend to Rs 22 crore, according to Sacnilk data. The film's India gross stands at Rs 162.50 crore, while its worldwide gross has reached Rs 192.80 crore. Freepressjournal.in reports that the film recorded 21 per cent occupancy across 13,632 shows on its second Sunday, with a 43.5 per cent jump in collections from Friday to Saturday. Released on August 14 alongside Sunny Deol's Batwara 1947, Awarapan 2 has maintained its lead at the box office. Pinkvilla notes the film should have recorded a better spike on its second Sunday. The film's opening day stood at Rs 22 crore net, with its biggest single-day collection of Rs 33.75 crore coming on Independence Day. The sequel, produced by Vishesh Bhatt, features Disha Patani and Shabana Azmi in key roles. With a worldwide gross of Rs 192.80 crore, the film is less than Rs 8 crore short of the Rs 200 crore mark. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The coverage of Awarapan 2’s box office is uniform straight reporting. Freepressjournal.in provides the most granular data, including day-wise splits and occupancy percentages, while Pinkvilla focuses on aggregate weekend figures. Both outlets lead with positive performance indicators: Freepressjournal.in emphasizes the film nearing Rs 200 crore worldwide and beating competition, Pinkvilla flags a spike that could have been higher. The difference is presentational: Freepressjournal.in’s detailed breakdown implies sustained momentum, while Pinkvilla’s brief note subtly questions the pace. A careful reader should watch whether the film crosses Rs 200 crore worldwide in its third weekend, the Rs 7.20 crore gap is small, but second-weekend occupancy (21 per cent) may flatten week-on-week. The Rs 200 crore mark is the number to track on Monday or Tuesday next week. ## Coverage Coverage: 2 sources, 2 neutral - pinkvilla.com (neutral report) Leads with second-weekend aggregate and flags that the spike could have been better - freepressjournal.in (neutral report) Leads with film nearing Rs 200 crore worldwide and gives most granular data This story was synthesised by AI from the 2 sources linked above.
