After that, it’s set to challenge the earnings of Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Pathaan’ (₹524.53 crore) and the Sunny Deol-starrer ‘Gadar 2’ (₹525 crore). With momentum on its side, ‘Stree 2’ could very well dominate the charts by the next weekend.

Directed by Amar Kaushik, ‘Stree 2: Sarkate Ka Aatank’ (translated as “Woman 2: Terror of the Headless”) is a 2024 Hindi-language film that blends horror and comedy, a genre that has resonated well with Indian audiences. This installment, the fifth in the Maddock Supernatural Universe, follows the same successful formula that made its predecessor, ‘Stree’ (2018), a hit. The story revolves around a group of friends, led by Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor, who face off against a malevolent spirit terrorizing the women of Chanderi.

With its engaging storyline, strong performances, and a blend of scares and laughs, ‘Stree 2’ has managed to capture the audience’s imagination, translating that into significant box office success. As it continues its run, the film is on track to not only break records but also set a new benchmark for horror comedies in Bollywood.
