Stree 2 Breaks Records
Stree 2, the sequel to the 2018 movie Stree, has achieved a major milestone by becoming the fastest Bollywood film to reach Rs 400 crore in box office earnings. This means it made more money in a shorter time than some of the biggest films in recent years.
It surpassed Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan and Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal, which took 11 days to reach the same mark, SRK’s Pathaan and Sunny Deol’s Gadar 2, which took 12 days, Prabhas’s Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (Hindi version), which took 15 days, and Yash’s KGF: Chapter 2 (Hindi version), which took 23 days.
For Shraddha Kapoor, this film is now the highest-grossing movie of her career. Before this, her biggest hit was the 2019 film Saaho, where she acted alongside Prabhas. Saaho made Rs 310.60 crore in total, with Rs 145.67 crore coming from the Hindi version alone.
The film isn’t just breaking records for Shraddha Kapoor; it’s also now the second-highest-grossing Indian film of 2024. The only movie ahead of it is Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2898 AD, an epic drama that has earned over Rs 1,100 crore.
The movie also stars Abhishek Banerjee, Pankaj Tripathi, and Aparshakti Khurana in important roles. Right now, Stree 2 has no real competition at the box office. The other movies that were released around the same time, like Khel Khel Mein and Vedaa, have already finished their run in theaters, and there are no big new releases scheduled for this week or the next.
