Emraan Hashmi's 'Awarapan 2' Maintains Strong Ground on Day 13 Despite Yash's 'Toxic' Clash
Bollywood actor Emraan Hashmi’s highly anticipated action-drama Awarapan 2 continues to defy box office gravity. Industry experts widely predicted that the theatrical release of South superstar Yash’s mega-budget film Toxic would severely cannibalize screen counts and earnings. However, defying all odds, Awarapan 2 has put up a resilient fight, maintaining impressive numbers even after nearly two weeks in cinemas.
Strong Box Office Hold on Day 13 Against Major Competition
Released worldwide on August 14, Awarapan 2 initially faced a high-stakes clash against Sunny Deol's Bantwara 1947. Winning over both critics and audiences with its gripping narrative, Emraan Hashmi's film emerged as a major commercial success.
Even with the arrival of Toxic forcing a more than 76% reduction in daily collections due to screen reallocation, Awarapan 2 held its ground remarkably well on its second Wednesday. The film grossed nearly ₹1 crore at the domestic box office on its 13th day, proving its staying power. Before completing two full weeks in theaters, the movie has accumulated a massive ₹144 crore net at the domestic box office, cementing its blockbuster status.
Global Dominance: Worldwide Collections Cross the ₹200 Crore Milestone
Awarapan 2 has scripted an extraordinary box office success story not just domestically, but across international markets as well. Bolstered by strong word-of-mouth and overseas fan following, the film's total worldwide gross has officially surpassed the ₹202 crore mark, including robust overseas earnings of ₹32 crore. Emraan Hashmi's powerful return in the sequel has thus established a new benchmark for mid-tier action dramas clashing against mega-blockbusters.
