At the box office, Stree 2, which released on August 15 after paid previews on August 14 beginning at 9:30 PM, is causing an uproar. Starring Rajkummar Rao, Shraddha Kapoor, Pankaj Tripathi, Abhishek Banerjee, and Aparshakti Khurana, this horror comedy is directed by Amar Kaushik. The movie has made an astounding Rs 242.40 crore in just five days, and by the end of its first extended week, it is expected to have collected Rs 300 crore in India. However, there are more horror-comedies coming out this year besides that one. Another film starring Kartik Aaryan, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, is scheduled to appear in theaters in a few months.
At the box office, Stree (2018) brought in Rs 129.67 crores, and the follow-up has already surpassed the previous record. Furthermore, according to the Koimoi entertainment news blog, Stree 2 made even more money than Kartik Aaryan’s 2022 movie Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, which took in Rs 186.57 crore. Will the third installment be able to surpass the record set by Stree 2? That’s something to anticipate.
The movie starring Kartik Aaryan is generating a lot of buzz. It is a well-liked horror-comedy franchise, much like Stree. The fact that the third installment will feature Vidya Balan, the real Manjulika, is intriguing. Madhuri Dixit and Triptii Dimri are also in the Anees Bazmee-directed film. As a result, BB3 has an ensemble of highly regarded celebrities.
Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 Aims to Surpass Stree 2’s Record-Breaking Success
In order to surpass Stree 2’s opening day record of Rs 64.80 crore and become the biggest and highest grossing horror-comedy, Kartik Aaryan’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 must succeed. The film starring Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao became the fastest to reach the 100-crore milestone in just two days. To stay ahead of the competition, Kartik’s movie needs to accomplish the same with higher numbers. Moreover, the Rs 60 crore budget for Amar Kaushik’s horror comedy had already been met. Thus, that is another goal that the Anees Bazmee-directed film needs to accomplish.
People will be eagerly following the battle between these two giants of horror-comedy, given the hype and the celebrity cast. Theaters will host Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 in October. Thus, Stree 2 has three more months to become the most successful horror-comedy in Hindi cinema history.
