About the film
Co-starring Pankaj Tripathi, Abhishek Banerjee and Aparshakti Khurana, Stree was one of the most commercially-successful and critically-acclaimed films of 2018. The actors are returning for the follow-up movie directed by Amar Kaushik. Stree was set in small town of Chanderi, Madhya Pradesh, where an evil spirit named ‘Stree’ abducts men in the night during festival season. It was based on the urban legend of 'Nale Ba' that went viral in Karnataka in the 1990s.
Stree 2 is produced by Dinesh Vijan's Maddock Films and Jio Studios's Jyoti Deshpande. The Stree films are part of Maddock’s horror-comedy universe, which also includes Varun Dhawan's Bhediya and recently released Munjya, featuring Sharvari and Abhay Verma.
