You are running a program from /opt folder. You need to run it with sudo

or you could move your sdk to your home folder where you have read/write access.

Third way is to set chmod -R 775 /opt/android-sdk-linux . I suggest the second method.

Starting emulator for AVD 'Sentosa34' ERROR: 32-bit Linux Android emulator binaries are DEPRECATED, to use them you will have to do at least one of the following:
- Use the '-force-32bit' option when invoking 'emulator'.
- Set ANDROID_EMULATOR_FORCE_32BIT to 'true' in your environment.
Either one will allow you to use the 32-bit binaries, but please be aware that these will disappear in a future Android SDK release. Consider moving to a 64-bit Linux system before that happens.

are you using a 32 bit or 64 bit machine? – Suraj Rao Feb 04 '17 at 12:39
32bit machine Ubuntu 16.04 Desktop LTS – Tje Sen Liem Feb 04 '17 at 12:40
I guess you will have to do what the warning is telling you.. try setting ANDROID_EMULATOR_FORCE_32BIT to true.. – Suraj Rao Feb 04 '17 at 12:42
I havent used 32 bit version of android studio/sdk – Suraj Rao Feb 04 '17 at 12:42
