Emraan Hashmi has knocked it out of the park with his action thriller sequel, Awarapan 2. Directed by Nitin Kakkar, it has emerged as a superhit in a week. But how is Disha Patani co-starrer performing compared to Bollywood’s last romantic blockbuster, Saiyaara? Scroll below for the detailed analysis!

Awarapan 2 scores a 117 crore+ opening week

The sequel factor was expected to benefit Emraan Hashmi’s film, but it surpassed all expectations on the opening day itself. While trade predicted a day 1 of around 15 crore, it brought in a whopping 23.4 crore. The craze continued during the opening weekend, with a total of 84.31 crore.

Awarapan 2 finally began losing its grip after the discounted Tuesday. It has wrapped up its opening week, collecting 117.66 crore net. Made on a budget of only 45 crore, the action thriller is a massive success.
