Hyderabad: Stree 2 has made history by becoming the first-ever Hindi film to surpass the Rs 600 crore mark at the domestic box office. Directed by Amar Kaushik and featuring Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor, the horror-comedy has captivated audiences nationwide. The film was released in theatres on August 15, 2024 and opened to positive reviews from both fans and critics alike.
Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh announced this milestone on X, highlighting its success across various markets, from multiplexes to single screens. Following its record-breaking performance, Stree 2 outperformed the Hindi versions of major films like Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan and Pathaan. On its 39th day at the box office on Sunday, the film minted Rs 5 crore, a 36.99 percent hike from September 21, 2024 collection.
IT'S 600 PAAR... #Stree2 creates HISTORY as the *first #Hindi film* to achieve this milestone... From metros to non-metros, multiplexes to single screens and urban centres to mass markets, #Stree2 is an OUTRIGHT WINNER across the board.
