Still from Stree 2 trailer
The wait is over! The much-anticipated trailer of the biggest film of the year has finally arrived, promising to deliver an electrifying blend of horror and comedy that fans have been eagerly waiting for. Set to release this Independence Day, the sequel to the beloved franchise brings back the iconic Chanderi gang, along with a spine-chilling new adversary - SARKATA!
While Stree ended on a cliffhanger, audiences had to wait for a good five years. However, the makers are finally back with another banger of a trailer that ties all the loose ends. It is a visual spectacle offering a glimpse into a world, blending horror and humor, in the most unique way!
There is a new evil in Chanderi who kidnaps young women from the village. The villagers go to Rajkummar to save them like he did earlier. Shraddha Kapoor returns to help the gang get rid of the new evil that engulfed the village. We also get a glimpse of Shraddha and Rajkummar's love story and the humourous exchange between the OG gang.
Producer of Maddock Films, Dinesh Vijan says, "The first Stree was a defining film in Maddocks filmography while Stree 2 will cement the entire universe. It answers all the questions that Stree 1 raised and also shows the connections. It is a landmark film for us, especially in terms of the VFX and the world building that has happened. It is unique and an upgrade of another kind. This one is funnier, bigger, a visual spectacle and it's got all our characters and some new special angles. This is the most important film we are putting out there and our biggest."
