Batwara 1947 vs Awarapan 2: Box Office Clash Ahead
Interestingly, Batwara 1947 is releasing alongside Emraan Hashmi and Disha Patani starrer Awarapan 2. With both films targeting audiences with very different cinematic experiences, the box office clash could make the coming days interesting.
While early word-of-mouth for Batwara 1947 appears positive, its real test will begin once audiences get to watch the film in theatres.
