To measure an actor’s popularity one does not need a popularity check meter. Especially in the case of an actor like Emraan Hashmi, the fans make it a point to tell with their presence what the actor means to them. This is exactly what happened in Delhi recently when Emraan was shooting for the movie Jannat – 2. It seemed like the whole of the capital was out and about just to get a glimpse of their favourite actor. “His popularity has gone up many folds after Murder-2. What we have witnessed in Delhi is one example of that very fact,” says filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt.
