Horror comedy ‘Stree 2’ has achieved a historic milestone, emerging as the highest-grossing Hindi film of all time at the domestic box office, according to its makers. With a staggering collection of Rs. 586 crore, the film has surpassed the previous record held by Shah Rukh Khan‘s ‘Jawan’.
The film continues to perform strongly in its fifth week of release. It has surpassed the lifetime earnings of ‘Jawan’, which earned Rs. 582 crore, PTI has reported.
‘Stree 2’ continues the story from the 2018 hit ‘Stree’, where Rao’s character, Vicky, and his friends face a new terror — a ghost with just a head, named Sarkata. The film builds on the successful horror-comedy universe created by producer Dinesh Vijan, which includes other titles such as ‘Bhediya’ and ‘Munjya’.
In an X post, Maddock Films celebrated the achievement, saying, “Woh Stree hai aur usne aakhir kar dikhaya… Hindustan ki sab se sarvashresth No. 1 Hindi film of all time!!! Yeh itihaas humare saath rachane ke liye sab fans ko bahut bahut dhanyavaad… Stree 2 is still running in cinemas successfully… theatre aao, kuch aur naye records rachate hain!”
With its success, ‘Stree 2’ not only cements its place in Bollywood history but also continues to draw audiences to theaters, setting new records along the way.
