The Success of the First “Stree” Film.
The original “Stree” was a surprise hit, earning critical acclaim and becoming a commercial success.

The story centered on a small town plagued by an enigmatic ghostly woman who preys on men during the Navaratri celebrations. Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao starred as the main characters, earning acclaim for their on-screen rapport.
The film “Stree” debuted with box office earnings of ₹6.82 crore on its first day, signaling a robust beginning. The film’s collections grew over the weekend and by the end of its first week, “Stree” had grossed ₹81.09 crore worldwide, making it a commercial success. The movie achieved significant commercial success, earning more than ₹180 crore at the box office. This was particularly impressive given its relatively modest budget of ₹23–25 crore, making it a highly profitable venture for its producers.
