“Stree 2” has made history by becoming the first film to reach the 600 crore milestone at the box office without featuring any of Bollywood’s iconic Khans (Shah Rukh, Aamir, or Salman).
This film marks the inception of a new club that the Khans previously dominated, having paved the way for the 100 to 500 crore milestones in Bollywood.
Since the release of the trailer for “Stree 2,” there was a palpable excitement indicating that the film would be a significant hit. However, no one could predict just how big it would become.
The original “Stree” (2018) surprised everyone by grossing nearly 130 crore without a major star cast or extensive publicity, establishing itself as a sleeper hit.
For “Stree 2,” expectations were set around a 300 crore net collection. Little did anyone know that the audience would respond with such enthusiasm that the film would double those projections.
After over a month in theaters, “Stree 2,” the latest installment in Dinesh Vijan’s horror universe, continues to perform exceptionally well.
By Thursday, after five weeks, the film’s net collection had reached 589.90 crore, claiming the title of the highest-grossing Hindi film. However, during the sixth weekend, “Stree 2” made history yet again.
Thanks to a boost from National Cinema Day, the film collected 5.20 crore on Friday, followed by 3.80 crore on Saturday, bringing the total net collection to 598.90 crore.
On Sunday, another record was set; according to estimates from Sacnilk, the film earned approximately 4.85 crore, officially pushing its total past the 600 crore mark. The net collection now stands close to 604 crore.
“Stree 2” is not just a financial triumph; it is a groundbreaking film that opens doors for new genres in the Bollywood box office. Until now,
the 500 crore club was primarily dominated by action films, but this horror-comedy has shattered expectations. With its ongoing success, it will be intriguing to see how high its final lifetime collection will reach.
