Awarapan 2 Box Office Day 5: Emraan Hashmi Creates History With His First ₹100 Crore Solo Hit

Awarapan 2 Box Office Collection Day 5: The nostalgia around Shivam Pandit has translated into a major theatrical victory for Emraan Hashmi. Awarapan 2 has crossed the ₹100 crore mark in India within five days, turning the sequel into one of the biggest commercial successes of the actor’s career.

What makes the milestone even more special is that the film has achieved it as an Emraan Hashmi-led solo project. The actor, who returned as Shivam nearly two decades after the original Awarapan, has now delivered a major box office success with the much-awaited sequel.

Awarapan 2 Crosses ₹100 Crore In Just 5 Days

Awarapan 2 has continued to hold strongly after its opening weekend.

The film added approximately ₹9.75 crore net on Tuesday, taking its domestic collection to around ₹100.75 crore net.

Its India gross collection has reached approximately ₹120.33 crore, according to the figures available so far.

The five-day journey has been particularly impressive because the film managed to maintain its momentum after a strong weekend.

Awarapan 2 Day-Wise Collection

The Saturday jump proved to be crucial for the film. After a ₹22 crore opening, the sequel jumped to ₹33.75 crore on Saturday, followed by another strong ₹26 crore on Sunday.

Even after the weekend, the film managed to stay close to the ₹10 crore mark on both Monday and Tuesday.

Emraan Hashmi Scores His First ₹100 Crore Solo Lead Film

The ₹100 crore milestone carries special significance for Emraan Hashmi.

While the actor has been associated with several successful films, Awarapan 2 has given him a major solo-lead box office milestone by crossing ₹100 crore in India.

The achievement also comes with the return of one of his most remembered characters.

Emraan first played Shivam Pandit in Awarapan, released in 2007. Almost 20 years later, he has stepped back into the role, bringing the character to a new chapter.

That nostalgia has clearly worked in the film’s favour.

The original Awarapan may not have been a huge theatrical success when it released, but its music, emotional storyline and Emraan’s performance helped it develop a loyal audience over the years.

Awarapan 2 Beats The Competition At The Box Office

The sequel is also benefiting from its strong performance against Sunny Deol and Preity Zinta’s Batwara 1947.

While both films released during the same Independence Day weekend, Awarapan 2 has opened up a considerable gap in domestic collections.

On Tuesday, Awarapan 2 earned around ₹9.75 crore, whereas Batwara 1947 managed approximately ₹1.80 crore.

After five days, Batwara 1947 has collected around ₹30.32 crore net in India.

The contrasting performances have made the box office clash particularly interesting, with Awarapan 2 emerging as the clear front-runner.

Awarapan 2 Worldwide Collection Crosses ₹144 Crore

The film is not relying solely on its domestic business.

Awarapan 2 added approximately ₹2 crore from overseas markets on Day 5, taking its total overseas gross to around ₹23.80 crore.

With its India gross at approximately ₹120.33 crore, the film’s worldwide gross has reached around ₹144.13 crore.

That puts the sequel firmly on track for a much bigger worldwide total if it continues to hold during the coming days.

The ₹100 Crore Milestone Came Despite A Reported ₹45 Crore Budget

Another interesting aspect of the film’s performance is its reported budget.

Awarapan 2 has reportedly been made for around ₹45 crore. With the film already generating over ₹100 crore in India alone, its theatrical performance has put it in a strong commercial position.

A Times of India report has also cited a 122% return on investment, although trade calculations can differ depending on whether production cost, distribution share and other expenses are included.

The important takeaway is clear: the sequel has become a profitable theatrical performer far earlier than expected.

Why Awarapan 2 Is Connecting With Audiences

The film’s biggest advantage appears to be the combination of nostalgia and Emraan Hashmi’s screen presence.

For many viewers, Awarapan is closely associated with its emotional soundtrack and Shivam’s tragic journey.

The sequel brings back that familiar character while placing him in a completely new situation.

The result has allowed the film to attract both fans of the original and audiences curious to see what happened to Shivam after all these years.

Emraan’s return has therefore become more than a conventional sequel casting decision. It is effectively the film’s biggest selling point.

Emraan Hashmi’s Return As Shivam Pandit

Directed by Nitin Kakkar and produced by Vishesh Bhatt, Awarapan 2 expands the world of the original film with a new supporting cast.

The film stars Disha Patani, Shabana Azmi, Puran Gabbi, Aniruddh Rawal, Suvinder Vicky and Vijayant Kohli, among others.

Emraan reprises Shivam Pandit, while Disha Patani plays Zara.

Shabana Azmi appears as Nafisa Nawaz, with Puran Gabbi playing Zorawar.

The sequel’s story takes Shivam into a dangerous mission involving an Interpol operation and child trafficking, giving the character a new emotional and action-driven arc.

Awarapan 2 Box Office Day 5: What’s Next?

The ₹100 crore milestone is only the beginning for Awarapan 2.

The biggest question now is whether the film can maintain its weekday stability and convert its strong opening week into a long theatrical run.

With ₹100.75 crore net in India and ₹144.13 crore worldwide after five days, the film has already established a strong base.

For Emraan Hashmi, however, the headline achievement is unmistakable.

Nearly two decades after Shivam Pandit first became a fan favourite, Awarapan 2 has taken the character back to the box office — and this time, Emraan Hashmi has crossed the ₹100 crore mark as a solo lead.
