Stree2 gives thrills,laugh,surprises, good music and importantly entertainment. Occurs light comedy but fits in horror category. Graphics though not extraordinary but works well. SK influences more than RR and Akhandanand #Stree2Review #Stree2OnAug15

Rajkummar Rao’s performance, Shraddha Kapoor’s gorgeous presence and Abhishek Banerjee’s comedic timing are also highly praised. Fans have waited six years to find out what the story is, the mystery behind Shraddha’s character and the terror of the headless monster since the trailer release.

Stree 2 ends with a cliffhanger and two post-credit scenes, generating anticipation for what’s next. During the trailer launch, the makers confirmed that they have plans to make Stree 3. Maddock Films, known for its horror-comedy lineup, also released Munjya this year and previously introduced Bhediya, starring Varun Dhawan and Kriti Sanon, in 2022. Both movies received immense praise. The audience can’t wait to see how these three horror universes will merge in the future with Ayushmann Khurrana’s Vampire movie, which is also being teased. Stree 2 released in theatres on the night of August 14. The Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor starrer is receiving a lot of love from the audience.
