Mukesh Bhatt: 'Awarapan 2' Delayed, Not Scared of 'Dhurandhar 2' or 'Toxic'

• Producer Mukesh Bhatt confirmed that Emraan Hashmi's "Awarapan 2" release is postponed due to pending work, not fear of competition.
• The delay is primarily because Emraan Hashmi sustained an injury during filming, requiring surgery and a 45-day ban on action sequences.
• Bhatt stated that the remaining action sequences will be shot later, pushing the release to May or June.
• Media reports had suggested "Awarapan 2" was avoiding a clash with "Dhurandhar Part 2" and Yash's "Toxic."
• A 20-day schedule for "Awarapan 2" is still pending, planned for March in Malaysia, with Disha Patani and Shabana Azmi reportedly joining the cast.

Why It Matters: Emraan Hashmi's injury, not competition, caused 'Awarapan 2' delay to May/June.
