The much-anticipated sequel to the hit film 'Stree', titled 'Stree 2', has continued to dominate the Indian box office, inching closer to the impressive ₹400 crore mark. Released just two weeks ago, the film starring Rajkummar Rao, Shraddha Kapoor, Pankaj Tripathi, Abhishek Banerjee, and Aparshakti Khurana has already surpassed its predecessor's success. According to Sacnilk.com, the film has collected an astounding ₹399.41 crore net in India, showcasing the immense popularity and appeal of the franchise.
The film's phenomenal performance is evident in its first-week collection alone, reaching a staggering ₹291.65 crore net. The momentum carried into the second week, with 'Stree 2' amassing significant collections across the weekend. The film's impressive run is attributed to its unique blend of humor and horror, captivating audiences and creating a buzz across social media platforms. The strong star cast, known for their comedic timing and acting prowess, further adds to the film's appeal.
Director Amar Kaushik, known for his successful ventures like 'Stree' and 'Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga', has shared his thoughts on the film's unexpected success. In a recent interview with PTI, he revealed that he never intended to begin his career with a horror film. He initially envisioned debuting with 'Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga', which he later produced. The unexpected popularity of 'Stree' caught him by surprise, and he expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to explore a new genre and bring something unique to the audience. Kaushik emphasized his desire to create compelling cinema, and 'Stree' provided him with the perfect platform to do so.
