“Stree 2” Opening Day Box Office Trends: Shraddha Kapoor & Rajkummar Rao Film Eyes ₹42.5 Crore on Independence Day

“Stree 2,” starring Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao, is off to a blazing start at the box office, capitalizing on the Independence Day holiday. Early estimates suggest the film is poised to rake in between ₹41.50 to ₹43.50 crore on its opening day. Notably, the top three national chains—PVRInox, Cinepolis, and others—have contributed a significant 55% to the day’s total business, amounting to ₹22 crore. The film has been performing at peak capacity across the board, with several locations even facing seating shortages due to high demand.

This overwhelming response suggests a promising extended 5-day opening weekend, with the film expected to gross between ₹160 to ₹175 crore. Factoring in the ₹8.50 crore from paid previews, the opening day total stands at an impressive ₹51 crore—a remarkable feat for a mid-sized horror-comedy without superstar leads. Despite facing competition from “Vedaa” and “Khel Khel Mein,” “Stree 2” has exceeded all expectations, proving its wide appeal.
