Stree 2 Shatters Box Office Records with a Blockbuster Opening Weekend

Shraddha Kapoor, Rajkumar Rao, Pankaj Tripathi, Aparshakti Khurana and Abhishek Banerjee starrer 'Stree 2' made a splash on the very first day with a great start at the box office. How much the audience was waiting for this horror comedy can be gauged from the fact that this film has superstar Akshay Kumar and John Abraham's films in theatres opposite it, but none of them are close to it in terms of earnings. The film earned a brilliant Rs 60.3 crore in India on the first day, while its gross collection was around Rs 76.5 crore. Now the figures of the second day of the film's earnings have also come out, which shows that the film earned a lot of money on the second day as well.

Stree 2 added Rs 30 crore to its net total on the second day of its release, taking the net collection to Rs 90.3 crore. This solid performance has taken the total earnings of Stree 2 beyond Rs 100 crore, which is a significant achievement for a film of this genre. Seeing the craze among the audience for Stree 2 and the long weekend, trade analysts estimate that it will easily cross the 200 crore mark by the end of the weekend.

On the other hand, Akshay Kumar and Taapsee Pannu's 'Khel Khel Mein' and John Abraham's 'Veda' were released in theaters along with Stree 2, but failed to compete with Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkumar Rao's film on the opening day. Even after the films of 2 big stars, Stree 2 managed to hold its own among the audience, the main reason for which was the audience's wait for the film and positive reviews.

According to sacnilk.com, the film got a good occupancy of 45.31 percent in Hindi-speaking areas on Friday, August 16, 2024. Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkumar Rao are seen reprising their original roles in Stree 2, directed by Amar Kaushik. In the sequel of the film i.e. Stree 2, the terror of the terrible Sarkate is seen in the city of Chanderi. The townspeople turn to the woman once again to rid themselves of this terrifying monster. The film also has several surprising cameos, including those from 'Bhediya's' Varun Dhawan and Akshay Kumar.
