Notably, She went on to add, “I have watched him put his heart and soul into all his projects. And now even with these incredible numbers and all this love pouring in people around me keep asking, “How is he still so grounded and so calm?” This is what makes him different!! And maybe that’s why this line, “Akha Bollywood ek taraf aur Emraan Hashmi ek taraf (reference to The Bads of Bollywood )”, resonates so deeply with the industry and his followers.”
As per the latest buzz, Praising his dedication, Parveen shared, “I’ve seen what goes on behind the scenes every single day... studying his scripts, learning his dialogues (some of them in Telugu!), practising scenes behind closed doors, eating right, exercising and taking care of himself. These were just some of the things he did every single day, religiously. Nothing would break his routine, not even on holidays!! 😂 We all know this very well. And today, looking at all the love and the response he’s getting, I couldn’t be more grateful and thankful for this day..He truly deserves it !!”
In further updates, “And this is coming from someone who has probably been his biggest critic. Today, I’m just incredibly proud. What a beautiful moment this is!!! So never give up on your dreams guys. Stay focused, stay disciplined, just keep looking at the bigger picture and enjoy the journey,” she concluded.
On top of that, The success of Awarapan 2 is even more significant when compared to the 2007 original. While Awarapan did not make a major impact at the ticket-window during its theatrical run and was considered a major flop, the movie gradually gained a loyal following and became a cult favourite over the years. It had only managed a lifetime collection of ₹ 13 crore rupees. The sequel surpassed the lifetime collection of the original movie on the first day of its rollout.
Produced by Vishesh Bhatt and directed by Nitin Kakkar, Awarapan 2 features Emraan Hashmi once again in the role of Shivam Pandit. Other main characters in this movie include Disha Patani and Shabana Azmi. The ensemble cast includes Puran Gabbi, Anirudh Rawal, Surendar Vicky, Vijayant Kohli and Atul Kumar.
