- Blockbuster Success: Stree 2 crosses Rs 500 crore at the domestic box office, making it one of the biggest hits in Indian cinema.
- Shraddha’s Top Performers: The film joins Shraddha Kapoor’s impressive list of box office successes, including Saaho and Chhichhore.
- Potential Record Breaker: Stree 2 is on track to surpass Pathaan, Animal, and possibly Jawan, aiming to become the highest-grossing Hindi film ever.
How Did Stree 2 Achieve Such a Massive Success?
Shraddha Kapoor, who started her Bollywood journey with the 2010 flop Teen Patti and faced another setback with Luv Ka The End in 2011, has come a long way. Her career took a dramatic turn with the 2013 blockbuster Aashiqui 2, which catapulted her into the limelight and established her as a leading actress in the industry.
Fast forward to 2024, and Shraddha’s latest release, Stree 2, has created a sensation at the box office. In less than three weeks, this horror-comedy has raked in an astonishing Rs 500 crore at the domestic box office, making it only the sixth Hindi film to achieve this milestone. The previous five films to cross the Rs 500 crore mark are Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, Gadar 2, Pathaan, Animal, and the highest-grossing Jawan.
Stree 2 has not just captured the domestic audience; it has also made waves internationally, grossing over Rs 700 crore worldwide. This phenomenal performance has solidified Shraddha Kapoor’s position as one of the most bankable stars in Bollywood today.
What Makes Stree 2 So Special?
The remarkable success of Stree 2 can be attributed to its unique blend of horror and comedy, a genre that has rarely been explored with such finesse in Indian cinema. Directed by Amar Kaushik, the film’s engaging storyline, sharp dialogues, and stellar performances have resonated with audiences across the board. The fact that Stree 2 has managed to hold its ground without an A-list superstar in the lead is a testament to its strong content and Shraddha’s star power.
As Stree 2 continues to run in theaters, it has the potential to climb even higher in the box office rankings. With its current momentum, the film might surpass other blockbusters like Baahubali 2 and Gadar 2, and it is well-positioned to challenge Pathaan, Animal, and even Jawan.
