Amar Kaushik's Stree 2 is receiving widespread acclaim. The horror-comedy, which hit cinema screens on August 15, continues to dominate the box office. In a remarkable achievement, Stree 2 has now become the "2nd biggest Hindi grosser" of all time, according to a post shared by Sacnilk on X (formerly Twitter). Stree 2 has surpassed the lifetime collections of Gadar 2 and Pathaan. The only film above Stree 2 is Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan. “Box Office: #Stree2 Scores Excellent 4th Weekend; Becomes 2nd Biggest Hindi Grosser After Surpassing #Gadar2 and #Pathaan, Now Behind Only #Jawan,” Sacnilk wrote in the post.

Meanwhile, Rajkummar Rao also talked about how the box office numbers of Stree 2 are “way above” his expectations. In a chat with News18, the actor said, “We were sure that the film would get lot of love because of the love that Stree 1 got. There's a big fan-following for Stree, including me. I am a huge fan of Stree myself. But these numbers are way above our expectations. We are glad and super elated. There's a lot of gratitude that this is happening with a film like Stree, because it is content-driven film.”
Stree 2 is a sequel to the 2018 film Stree. The franchise is a part of Dinesh Vijan's horror-comedy universe, which also includes Roohi, Bhediya and Munjya.
