Stree 2 outperforms Kalki 2898 AD: How Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor’s horror comedy became a box office sensation

Stree 2, the latest horror comedy featuring Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor, has continued its remarkable box office run, reaching a new milestone. On its 13th day, the film accumulated an estimated ₹11.5 crore, marking a notable decline of nearly 38% from its Monday collections, as reported by industry tracker Sacnilk. The Monday earnings were bolstered by the partial holiday for Janmashtami, during which the film earned ₹20 crore.

Despite the expected dip on Tuesday due to it being a working day, Stree 2 has maintained a strong presence with double-digit collections. The film’s total domestic earnings now stand at approximately ₹435 crore, with global collections crossing the ₹600 crore mark. This places Stree 2 as the second highest-grossing film of the year, trailing only behind Kalki 2898 AD, which has achieved a global gross of ₹1,000 crore.

Interestingly, Stree 2 has outperformed Kalki 2898 AD in terms of footfalls. According to Sacnilk, the horror comedy is now the second Indian film of the year to sell over 2 crore tickets, following Kalki 2898 AD. While Kalki 2898 AD sold 3.63 crore tickets across all languages, its Hindi version contributed 1.56 crore tickets. In contrast, Stree 2 has achieved this milestone with its Hindi release alone, selling 2.06 crore tickets. This surpasses Kalki 2898 AD and Hrithik Roshan’s Fighter, which has reported footfalls of 1.17 crore.
