It has even surpassed the collections of Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone’s Pathaan. The makers of Stree 2 have now received praise from Yash Raj Films (YRF), the studio behind Pathaan.
YRF’s Shoutout
In response to Stree 2‘s tremendous success, YRF extended their heartfelt congratulations to the team. On Thursday, the production house shared a special message on social media, applauding the team’s achievements and acknowledging their milestone.
“Heartiest congratulations to Dinesh Vijan, Maddock Films, Jio Studios, & the entire cast & crew of Stree 2 for this massive box office success,” read the note.
The message further added, “You have set a new benchmark for everyone to aspire to. The last two years have been phenomenal for Hindi cinema, and the industry couldn’t be more thrilled.”
Stree 2 has raked in over ₹586 crore at the Indian box office, surpassing the collection of Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan. The film’s lifetime collection in Hindi is ₹582.31 crore, while Pathaan‘s Hindi version stands at ₹524.53 crore.
Fans React
As soon as YRF’s post went live, fans shared their opinions. Some users critiqued YRF for their previous films like Shamshera, while others offered suggestions for improvement.
One user commented, “From the Spy universe to the Stree universe,” while another advised, “You guys will find success if you focus more on storytelling rather than films like Shamshera and Thugs.”
Several comments highlighted the importance of strong content, with one reading, “It’s all about the power of content-driven films.” Another user chimed in, “Good writing can make all the difference.”
