"Yeh itihaas humare saath rachane ke liye sab fans ko bahut bahut dhanyavaad (thanks a lot to all fans for scripting this history with us)... Stree 2 is still running in cinemas successfully... theatre aao, kuch aur naye records rachate hain (come to theatres, lets make some more new records)!" the post further read.
The film's collection is now more than Jawan's (Hindi version) lifetime collection.
According to trade analyst Taran Adarsh, Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao's Stree 2 has collected Rs 586 crore (over Rs 5.8 billion) at the Indian box office.
Adarsh wrote on X, "#Stree2 scripts HISTORY... Becomes the HIGHEST-GROSSING *HINDI* FILM EVER... Crosses *lifetime biz* of #Jawan [#Hindi version]... Next stop: Inaugurating the ₹600 cr Club. [Week 5] Fri 3.60 cr, Sat 5.55 cr, Sun 6.85 cr, Mon 3.17 cr, Tue 2.65 cr. Total: ₹ 586 cr. #India biz. #Boxoffice."
In her review, WION's Shomini Sen wrote that while the film was enjoyable, its climax was loud and screechy.
"I wish Stree 2 climax was not so screechy and the second half was not this stretched. I did enjoy watching the film but the second half marred the experience to quite an extent. It ends with a promise of Part 3 and the possibility of a Vampire film being added to the horror universe of Maddock," Sen wrote. Read the full review here
