Oh, Bollywood enthusiasts, gather ’round! It’s time for another dose of box office banter from yours truly, Boxoffice Bhaskar. If you thought the Bollywood box office was a straightforward game, think again! Things are about to get as twisted as a Sanjay Leela Bhansali plot.
Stree 2 is not just knocking on our cinematic doors; it’s banging them down. Filmmaker Amar Kaushik’s latest horror-comedy concoction is all set to rain on the parades of two other biggies: Vedaa starring John Abraham and Sharvari, and Khel Khel Mein featuring our very own Khiladi, Akshay Kumar. But guess what? Stree 2’s advance bookings are so far ahead, they might as well be in a different race.
Remember Stree (2018)? Of course, you do. It scared up a whopping ₹129.90 crores. Well, brace yourselves because Stree 2 is here to easily surpass that, leaving its prequel’s lifetime earnings in the dust.
And as if that wasn’t enough, Rajkummar Rao is about to shatter his own records. His highest opening day grosser so far is Mr & Mrs Mahi with ₹6.85 crores. But Stree 2? It’s gearing up to open at a jaw-dropping ₹30 crores or more. Imagine that! From ₹6.85 crores to ₹30 crores—talk about an upgrade!
Rajkummar’s second-best opener, you ask? None other than the OG Stree with ₹6.82 crores. Despite such a humble beginning, it went on to earn ₹129.90 crores. So, if Stree 2 opens at ₹30 crores, just imagine the heights it could reach—if the audience likes it, of course.
But let’s be real, apart from Mr & Mrs Mahi and Stree, Rajkummar’s first-day grossers haven’t exactly been chart-toppers. Stree 2, however, is set to change that narrative, putting Rajkummar into the two-figure club in grand style.
Produced by Maddock Films and Jio Studios, Stree 2 is hitting theaters on August 15 with paid previews on August 14. So, mark your calendars and get ready for some spooky fun!
