Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor starrer Stree 2 completed one year of its theatrical opening on Friday. It was released on August 15 last year and the film was a big success. Celebrating the one-year anniversary, Rajkummar Rao got nostalgic as he shared a post on Instagram.
“This day, last year, the lights dimmed, the screen lit up… and history was created. 1 year to the most loved Hindi film #Stree2,” the actor wrote, further thanking his fans for their endless love and support.
Along with a special character touch to the post, he also teased his return in Stree 3. Bahut jaldi milenge Stree 3 ke sath (We will be back soon with Stree 3),” Rajkummar quipped. The actor also shared a video, which included some of his most memorable scenes from the film. The second Stree instalment brought back audiences to the chaotic Chanderi, where people faced a new threat from the headless villain, “Sarkata.”
To defeat the monsters, Rajkummar Rao’s Vicky reunites with Bittu (Aparshakti Khurana), Jana (Abhishek Banerjee), Rudra (Pankaj Tripathi), and, of course, the mysterious Shraddha Kapoor. The film is currently streaming on Amazon Prime Video India.
As Stree 2 has successfully completed a year of its release, the makers have also dropped an update on Thama, the upcoming film from the Maddock Horror-Comedy Universe. In an Independence Day special announcement, the makers announced that the first look of Thama will be unveiled on August 19.
The video featured multiple clips from the Stree franchise, Bhediya, and Munjya, followed by a brief yet chilling insight into the “bloody” love story. “Brace yourself, this chapter is a love story, wilder and deadlier than anything you’ve seen before,” the makers said. Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna will be seen in the lead roles, while Nawazuddin Siddiqui is also a part of the film. Thama will hit theatres on Diwali 2025.
