In an unprecedented display of box office success, the film “Stree 2,” featuring the dynamic duo Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao, has swept through cinemas, amassing over ₹200 crore nett in India within just four days of its release. This blockbuster film has been aptly described as a ‘tsunami’ at the box office, overshadowing all other contemporary releases and reinforcing the magnetic appeal of well-crafted Indian cinema.
Stree 2 Box Office Triumph: A New Benchmark in Indian Cinema
The fourth day alone saw “Stree 2” rake in approximately ₹58.20 crore nett in India, further solidifying its position as a sensational hit. Audiences have lauded the film for its humor, although some critiques pointed out that the ending could have been more impactful. Despite varied opinions on its horror and emotional aspects, the commercial triumph of “Stree 2” remains indisputable.
The film’s feat of hitting a double century in just four days is a remarkable achievement, usually reserved for only a few Hindi biggies. This historic accomplishment is even more notable given that “Stree 2” is a mid-sized film, setting new benchmarks for opening weekends in Indian cinema.
The movie’s release has had a significant impact on other films, such as “Khel Khel Mein” and “Vedaa,” which struggled to make their mark amidst the “Stree 2” wave. The film’s success is a testament to the enduring appeal of a well-made Desi entertainer, capturing the hearts of audiences across the nation.
Breaking down the numbers, “Stree 2” started its journey:
- ₹9.40 crore from Wednesday previews,
- ₹55.40 crore on Thursday,
- ₹35.30 crore on Friday,
- ₹45.70 crore on Saturday, and
- an impressive ₹58.20 crore on Sunday.
This brings its total to an astonishing ₹204 crore in its initial extended weekend, a figure that promises to grow with the Raksha Bandhan partial holiday.
As “Stree 2” continues to dominate the box office, it not only underscores the star power of Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao but also sets a new standard for Indian cinema, proving once again that a well-crafted narrative with engaging performances will always captivate audiences.
