âStree' is a special film for everyone involved. It gave Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor one of the biggest hits of their careers. It marked the return of Raj and DK to solid form after the unfortunate failure of âHappy Ending' and âA Gentleman', and Pankaj Tripathi became a force to reckon with, carrying all the roles on his able shoulders. It also blended horror and comedy with clever writing and spontaneous performances.
It came out on August 31, 2018, and Shraddha Kapoor got nostalgic as the story ended with her character being revealed as a witch. It was a superb cliffhanger and the nation awaits a sequel. The actress shared some images from the film and behind the scenes as this massively successful horror-comedy turned three years old.

After the thunderous success of this film, there were reports that Raj and DK had a fallout with producer Dinesh Vijan, which delayed the writing of the sequel. In an interview mid-day during the release of âBala', the director had something to say about the same.
He said, "We shot the ending in a certain way because we had a vision ahead. The right script is in the works. For me, Raj and DK are as important as Dinesh. Whatever be their differences, they will eventually be resolved. Stree 2 is destined to be. It will happen when it has to."
