Awarapan 2 day 11: Emraan Hashmi film nears Rs 140cr India net, earns 202% profit

Emraan Hashmi's romantic action drama, Awarapan 2, is set to become one of the highest-grossing films of 2026 in India. With a profit of 215% in just 10 days, the sequel has surpassed the box office success of Hashmi's first hit, Murder, which achieved a 200% profit. The film, starring Disha Patani and Shabana Azmi, has collected a total of Rs 165.75 crore in India so far, resulting in a net profit of approximately Rs 139 crore.

The Independence Day holiday and strong word-of-mouth contributed to Awarapan 2's steady performance throughout its first and second weeks. If the current trend continues, Awarapan 2 could potentially break the lifetime collection of the Ajay Devgn-led comedy, Dhamaal 4, making it the fifth-highest-grossing Bollywood release of the year.
