Awarapan 2, starring Emraan Hashmi and Disha Patani, has taken a strong start at the box office, collecting ₹21 crore net in India on its first day. The movie's worldwide gross collection stands at ₹27.20 crore.

The film's advance booking was excellent, which contributed to its impressive opening. Despite receiving mixed reviews from critics, the audience seems to be excited about the movie.

The movie's success will depend on its performance during the weekend and the word of mouth. If it receives positive feedback from the audience, it may show a jump at the box office.

In conclusion, Awarapan 2 has taken a strong start at the box office, and its success will be crucial for Emraan Hashmi's career. The movie's performance during the weekend will determine its overall success.
