Featuring Shraddha Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao, Aparshakti Khurana, Abhishek Banerjee, and Pankaj Tripathi in the leading roles, Stree 2 released in cinemas on August 15 coinciding with Independence Day and is still running successfully at the box office even after six weeks. The Amar Kaushik directorial continues to break records and has now beaten Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan and Pathaan, Ranbir Kapoor's Animal, Sunny Deol's Gadar 2, and Aamir Khan's Dangal to become the first Hindi film to earn over Rs 600 mark in India.
Trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to his X (formerly Twitter) and shared the news. He wrote, "IT'S 600 PAAR...#Stree2 creates HISTORY as the *first Hindi film* to achieve this milestone. From metros to non-metros, multiplexes to single screens and urban centres to mass markets, Stree 2 is an OUTRIGHT WINNER across the board. It would be premature to predict the lifetime biz, as Stree 2 has consistently surprised with phenomenal numbers day after day, week after week."
Sharing the box office numbers, he added, "Stree 2 biz at a glance...Week 1: ₹ 307.80 cr [incl Wed previews; full-fledged release on Thu] Week 2: ₹ 145.80 cr Week 3: ₹ 72.83 cr Week 4: ₹ 37.75 cr Week 5: ₹ 25.72 cr Weekend 6: ₹ 14.32 cr Total: Rs 604.22 cr India biz. Nett BOC."
