It has also surpassed the collection of Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone’s Pathaan. Now, the horror-comedy makers have earned accolades from YRF, the makers of Pathaan.
The triumphant run of the film has prompted YRF to extend heartfelt congratulations to the team. The production banner posted a special note for the team of Stree 2 on their social media handles on Thursday. In the note, they praised the team’s achievement, recognizing their remarkable milestone.

The film has collected over ₹586 crore at the Indian box office. With the total, it has crossed the Jawan’s collection in India. In Hindi, its lifetime collection is ₹582.31 crore nett. The collection of Siddharth Anand’s spy thriller Pathaan (Hindi version) stands at ₹524.53 crore.
A sequel to Stree, Stree 2 starts from where the first part ended.

Stree 2 follows Sarkata abducting women with an independent voice. The film also stars Pankaj Tripathi, Abhishek Banerjee and Aparshakti Khurana.
