Emraan Hashmi's upcoming film 'Awarapan 2' has outperformed Sunny Deol's 'Batwara 1947' by 81% in advance ticket sales ahead of their theatrical release.
The sequel to the cult classic has generated significant buzz, with trade analysts noting that Hashmi's return to the 'Shivam Pandit' character is a major draw.
While 'Batwara 1947' features a high-profile cast, its pre-sales have been sluggish, leading to concerns about its opening day performance at the box office.
