Stree 2 Box Office Collection Day 2: The film made a remarkable debut at the box office, featuring an ensemble cast of Shraddha Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao, Aparshakti Khurana, Abhishek Banerjee, and Pankaj Tripathi. On its opening day, the film achieved an impressive net collection of ₹60.3 crore in India. This success is particularly striking given the strong competition from other releases like Akshay Kumar and Taapsee Pannu’s Khel Khel Mein and John Abraham’s Vedaa. Despite the competitive landscape, Stree 2 has managed to stand out, driven by high anticipation and favourable word of mouth.

About Stree 2
Directed by Amar Kaushik, Stree 2 brings back Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor in their original roles. The film also includes several unexpected cameos, including Varun Dhawan as Bhediya, who performs a special song alongside Shraddha Kapoor.
Stree 2 picks up where the original left off, now facing a new terror in the town of Chanderi. This time, the residents are haunted by a headless entity known as Sarkata, who is abducting women. As the town plunges back into fear, the characters Bicky, Janna, Bittu, and Rudra unite to confront this ominous threat. The film introduces Sarkata as a headless menace targeting modern women and takes a personal turn when Bittu, played by Aparshakti Khurana, discovers that his girlfriend, Chitti, is among those taken.
Pankaj Tripathi's character, Rudra, receives a letter with missing pages from the Chanderi Puraan, prompting Bicky (Rajkummar Rao), Bittu, and Jana (Abhishek Banerjee) to embark on a mission to defeat Sarkata. They are joined by Shraddha Kapoor’s character, who remains unnamed in this sequel.
