Disha Patani danced to Sheila Ki Jawani at the Awarapan 2 success party in Mumbai, with videos from the event going viral as the film crossed Rs 200 crore worldwide. The 34-year-old actor was seen grooving to the Katrina Kaif hit from Tees Maar Khan (2010) as co-stars and crew cheered. She wore a halter-neck dress with a plunging neckline for the celebration. Released on August 14, the Rs 45 crore-budget sequel has earned Rs 201.45 crore globally so far, including Rs 170.15 crore from India gross and Rs 31.30 crore from overseas. The film opened with Rs 22 crore on Day 1 and jumped to Rs 33.75 crore on Day 2, before clearing the second-Monday test with steady weekday collections. Directed by Geetu Mohan, the film also stars Puran Gabbi, Shabana Azmi and Suvinder Vicky. Awarapan 2 now faces a more competitive run with Yash-starrer Toxic expected to take screens from this week, putting pressure on its ongoing collections.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

Crossing Rs 200 crore worldwide within 12 days on a Rs 45 crore budget puts Awarapan 2 in elite company for action sequels in Indian cinema. The film has cleared the second-Monday test, a traditional checkpoint for sustained theatrical legs, and now faces its biggest challenge: losing premium screens to the Yash-starrer Toxic, which releases this week. With Batwara 1947 fading and Hanuman Ansh only mildly competitive, the sequel's third-week holds will determine whether it breaches the Rs 250 crore global milestone. Distributors are watching the screen count drop this Friday.
