Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao’s Stree 2 is one of the most awaited movies which will hit theatres on August 15, 2024. While fans are eagerly waiting for the film, it should also be noted that Stree 2 will clash at the box office with Akshay Kumar’s Khel Khel Mein and John Abraham’s Vedaa. At the trailer launch of the film on Thursday, producer Jyoti Deshpande opened up about the film’s clash and shared that the simultaneous releases will ensure “survival of the fittest”.
“There are only 52 weeks in a year. We don’t release films during Hindu rituals (Shradh), IPL, Ramdan, and if some Khan film is releasing or a big South Indian film is releasing that leaves us with only 20 weeks. The clash is bound to happen. So it’s survival of the fittest, the jungle law,” the producer said as reported by the news agency IANS.
Deshpande further shared that they are “super confident” for Stree 2 and added, “We are coming with the feeling ki Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar”.
Stree 2 finally went on floors last year in July in Chanderi, a town in Madhya Pradesh where the first instalment of the horror-comedy franchise was also set. The film also stars Pankaj Tripathi, Aparshakti Khurana, and Abhishek Banerjee in lead roles.
Stree was released in 2018. It opened to wide critical acclaim and emerged as a commercial success at the box office. The music of the film also drew a lot of attention, with Milegi Milegi and Aao Kabhi Haveli Pe becoming raging chartbusters. The audience also fondly remembers Kamariya featuring a scintillating Nora Fatehi, who grabbed a lot of eyeballs for her moves on the track.
Stree 2 is being directed by Amar Kaushik and produced by Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Films and Jio Studios. It is a part of the producer’s horror-comedy universe, which includes films like Stree, Roohi, and Bhediya. The film will also see a special item song by Tamannaah Bhatia.
