The fact that Studio 18 is giving the keenly anticipated Awarapan an international release this week is common knowledge.

It is Emraan Hashmi's maiden principal solo outing overseas, and the distributor has left no stone unturned in marketing it to the fullest extent. It seems to have paid off and the result is evident. Among all the other cinemas in the North America & Canada, the film will open at the well-known Regal E-Walk Stadium 13 Cinema in Times Square.

It is a known fact that only the biggest Hindi cinema releases succeed in making it onto the screens of a cinema in the extremely popular Times Square in New York City and Awarapan has managed to do that.
