Here’s a video about Stree 2
Stree 2 directed by Amar Kaushik released on Independence Day that fell on a Thursday. Thus, it has the advantage of enjoying the long weekend at box office. Saturday, Sunday numbers can be exceptionally huge as Stree 2 has only received positive reviews from all corners. Plus, Monday is also a holiday. Raksha Bandhan falls on Monday, thus, there’s one more day for Stree 2 to mint money. Along with Stree 2, Akshay Kumar, Taapsee Pannu, Ammy Virk, Vaani Kapoor’s movie Khel Khel Mein has also released on Independence Day. John Abraham and Sarvari Wagh’s action thriller Vedaa has also made it to the theatres. However, both the films haven’t performed that well as compared to Stree 2. At least, the first day box office numbers suggest so.
