This Independence Day, audiences can expect an exciting box office battle as Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao's Stree 2 is set to release on August 15, directly competing with Allu Arjun's highly anticipated Pushpa 2. The release date shuffle follows Ajay Devgn’s decision to postpone Singham Again, which was originally slated for an August 15 release.
Facts About Stree 2
The horror-comedy sequel, directed by Amar Kaushik, will see Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao reprising their popular roles from the first film. With Stree 2 now set to release on August 15, it will face a direct clash with Pushpa 2. The original Pushpa film was a massive hit, making Pushpa 2 one of the most anticipated releases of the year. The competition between these two sequels promises to be intense, as both films have strong fan bases and significant expectations riding on them.
Moreover, Ajay Devgn recently announced on social media that Singham Again, another anticipated sequel, will now miss its planned August 15 release and instead hit theatres around Diwali this year. This film features an ensemble cast including Ajay Devgn, Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, Tiger Shroff, Arjun Kapoor, Akshay Kumar, and Kareena Kapoor Khan.
Furthermore, the rescheduling of Singham Again to Diwali means it will now clash with another big sequel, Kartik Aaryan’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. This sets up another exciting box office showdown later in the year, ensuring that audiences have plenty of blockbuster choices during the festive season.

The theme of Stree 2
The first instalment carried the tagline ‘O stree kal aana’, the sequel upgrades it to ‘O Stree Raksha Karna' this time, indicating that the villagers are no longer afraid of her, but instead asking for her help. The first part of the film follows the plot set in Chanderi where every man is afraid of a spirit known as Stree who captures men and leaves them behind without clothes. She is known to be taking revenge on the men around her who used her for their pleasure, but none loved her. This time the plot revolves around the theme ‘sarkate ka aatank’. This increases the excitement for its release, but all the audience can do is wait for another year.
