With many moviegoers eagerly awaiting their turn to witness ‘Stree 2’, it starts to become clear that this may be just the beginning of another success saga in Bollywood history.
‘Stree 2’ is expected to continue drawing large crowds, especially during holiday periods like Raksha Bandhan. As per trade analyst Taran Adarsh, the film’s extraordinary start hints at a sustained performance at the Box Office. The movie, a blend of horror and comedy, directed by Amar Kaushik and produced by Dinesh Vijan, clearly proves that a unique storyline with engaging characters can strike the right chord with the audience.
