Stree 2, the horror-comedy sequel directed by Amar Kaushik and starring Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao, is making impressive strides towards the ₹500 crore mark. On its 16th day in theaters, the film added around ₹7.75 crore to its earnings, bringing its total to approximately ₹440.80 crore, according to Sacnilk.

Strong Performance Against Competitors

Since its release, Stree 2 has significantly outperformed major releases such as Pathaan and Jawan. Despite competition from other films released around Independence Day, Stree 2 has captivated audiences with its engaging story and strong performances. Its consistent box office performance in urban centers and mass markets highlights its broad appeal.

Anticipated Success in Third Weekend

Film critic Taran Adarsh predicts a strong performance for Stree 2 in its third weekend, especially with no major releases competing this week. Adarsh expects the film’s business to grow over the weekend, with increased attendance on Saturday and Sunday. The film’s success across both multiplexes and single screens underscores its widespread popularity.

Future Plans and Expanding Universe

The success of Stree 2 has paved the way for future projects. Screenwriter Niren Bhatt confirmed that work on Stree 3 and other films in the expanding horror-comedy universe, including Vampires of Vijay Nagar, is underway. Bhatt noted that the success of Stree 2 proves that well-crafted, entertaining stories can achieve blockbuster status, not just action-packed films with big stars.

Creative Vision for Stree 3

The team behind Stree 3 is drawing inspiration from iconic sequels like Terminator 2 and Aliens to create a sequel that surpasses the expectations set by Stree 2. With plans to introduce new characters and explore innovative storylines, the creators aim to keep the horror-comedy universe fresh and exciting.

Stree 2 continues to thrill audiences and set new benchmarks at the box office, cementing its place as one of the highest-grossing films of all time.
