‘Stree 2‘ took the box office by storm on Independence Day! Amar Kaushik’s much-anticipated sequel to the 2018 horror-comedy sensation features a stellar cast including Shraddha Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao, Aparshakti Khurana, Abhishek Banerjee, and Pankaj Tripathi. The film made a smashing Rs 54.35 crore on its opening day in India, according to Sacnilk.com.
According to the website, Stree 2 enjoyed special opening premieres on Wednesday, earning Rs 8 crore. On its official opening day, the film raked in approximately Rs 46 crore, bringing the total to around Rs 54.25 crore. This impressive figure makes it the biggest opening day grosser of 2024, surpassing Kalki 2898 AD (Hindi) and Fighter. To put this in perspective, the first Stree took six days to reach Rs 54.88 crore net in India. On its opening day, Stree 2 boasted a 75.09% occupancy rate in Hindi.

Directed by Amar Kaushik, Stree 2 reunites Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor in their beloved roles from the original. The sequel picks up with Sarkata terrorizing Chanderi, prompting the townsfolk to seek Stree’s help. The film also features a host of secretive star cameos, including Varun Dhawan reprising his role as Bhediya and even joining Shraddha in a song.

Despite facing tough competition from Akshay Kumar and Taapsee Pannu‘s Khel Khel Mein and John Abraham and Sharvari’s Vedaa on its opening day, Stree 2 held its ground and performed strongly at the box office. The film managed to attract a solid audience and generate impressive earnings.
