‘Stree 2’ benefitted from the lacklustre response to Akshay Kumar’s ‘Khel Khel Mein’ and the John Abraham-led ‘Vedaa’. The positive word-of-mouth also worked in its favour. Stree 2 is expected to earn some more money before the end of its run.
About The Film
Set in Chanderi, ‘Stree 2’ focuses on the events that take place when Sarkata, a headless demon, abducts “progressive” women to teach them a lesson. The film is headlined by Shraddha Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao, Abhishek Banerjee, and Pankaj Tripathi. Akshay Kumar, Tamannaah, and Varun Dhawan have cameos in the horror-comedy. ‘Stree 2’ is directed by Amar Kaushik. It’s a sequel to the 2018 hit ‘Stree’. ‘Stree 2’ is a part of Bollywood’s horror comedy universe alongside Varun Dhawan’s ‘Bhediya’ and the Sharvari-led ‘Munjya’.
This is Shraddha Kapoor’s first release after ‘Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar’ which hit screens in 2023. It was directed by Luv Ranjan and marked her first collaboration with Ranbir Kapoor. The romantic comedy did well at the box office and received respectable reviews. For Rajkummar Rao, this is his first release after the sports drama ‘Mr and Mrs Mahi’, which failed to live up to expectations at the box office and received underwhelming reviews.
