The horror-comedy sequel Stree 2 has taken the box office by storm following its release on Independence Day. Starring Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao, the film has not only received an overwhelming response but has also shattered long-standing box office records, marking a significant achievement in the industry.
In an innovative move, additional midnight shows for Stree 2 were introduced in major cities such as Mumbai, Thane, Pune, and Delhi just a day after its release. The excitement surrounding these shows has been palpable, contributing significantly to the film’s impressive opening-day collection.
Early estimates indicate that Stree 2 has collected an astounding Rs. 42 to 44 crores on its first day. When combined with the paid previews, which brought in Rs. 8.50 crores, the film’s total opening day earnings reach a remarkable Rs. 52.50 crores.
This achievement is particularly noteworthy as it eclipses the previous record held by Shah Rukh Khan’s Chennai Express, which made headlines in 2013 by earning Rs. 6.75 crores from its paid preview shows a day before its official release. Stree 2 has not only surpassed this milestone but has done so by a considerable margin, establishing a new benchmark for future releases.
The film’s success can be attributed to several key factors, including positive word-of-mouth, a dedicated fan base, and a well-executed marketing campaign. Moreover, the decision to introduce additional midnight shows proved to be a strategic masterstroke, effectively tapping into the audience’s enthusiasm for the film.
With such an impressive opening, Stree 2 is poised to become one of the biggest hits of the year. Its box office journey will undoubtedly be closely monitored by industry insiders and fans, eager to see how it performs in the coming weeks. Stay tuned to know more about it and others only with us.
