In late November 2017, Raj & DK approached Rao to star in their debut production. To prepare for his role as a tailor, Rao learned to sew. In December, Shraddha Kapoor was confirmed as the female lead. Amar Kaushik was enlisted to direct the film in January 2018. Principal photography began on 13 January 2018 in Chanderi, with additional filming in Bhopal and Mumbai. The final schedule was completed in May 2018. The soundtrack was composed by Sachin–Jigar with lyrics written by Vayu, Badshah and Jigar Saraiya.[7]
Stree was theatrically released worldwide on 31 August 2018 and received positive reviews from critics. The film grossed over ₹180 crore at the box office against a budget of ₹23–25 crore, becoming a major commercial success at the box-office. At the 64th Filmfare Awards, the film received 10 nominations, including Best Film, Best Director (Kaushik), Best Actor (Rao) and Best Supporting Actor (for both Khurana and Tripathi), winning Best Debut Director (Kaushik). It is the first installment in Maddock Supernatural Universe followed by Bhediya (2022) and Munjya (2024). A sequel titled Stree 2 was released on Independence Day 2024, which was also a major commercial success at the box office.[8]
Plot
In the town of Chanderi, there is a widespread belief in the spirit of an angry woman known as Stree. During a four-day religious festival each year, she is said to stalk the men of the town, whispering their names and causing disappearances if they look back at her. To protect themselves, residents write "O Stree Kal Aana" (Oh Woman Come Tomorrow) in blood on their doorways. Additionally, men are advised to avoid going out alone after 10 PM during the festival and to move in groups for safety. This practice reflects a societal parallel to the precautions typically advised to women for their own protection.
Vicky, a ladies' tailor in Chanderi, encounters a mysterious girl, credited as "Girl with No Name", during the annual pooja season and falls in love with her at first sight. She requests him to stitch a lehanga. However, her frequent disappearances and unusual shopping list—containing items like a lizard's tail, white cat's fur, Datura flowers, meat, and brandy—raise concerns for his friend Bittu, who suspects she might be Stree. This suspicion deepens after another friend, Jana, is kidnapped by Stree. Vicky also grows wary of the girl and confronts her, but she vanishes yet again.
Vicky, Bittu and Rudra, the town's librarian, seek a way to save their friend Jana. They discover a partially torn book titled Chanderi Puran in Rudra's library, which details Stree's story and mentions an old fort. Vicky recognizes the fort from a date with the Girl. The trio visits the fort, believed to be Stree's lair, to find Jana. Stree drives away Bittu and Rudra and nearly attacks Vicky but refrains upon sensing love and respect in his eyes. She is then repelled by the girl's spell.
Later, the Girl reveals that she has been trying to defeat Stree for three years after losing someone close to her, explaining her presence during the festival. This confirms that she and Stree are different beings. That same night, Stree releases Jana at Vicky's request, but Jana begins experiencing sporadic violent episodes. More men go missing when a possessed Jana, under Stree's influence, erases the word "kal" (tomorrow) from the protective phrases outside homes, leaving only "o stree aana" (oh woman come), effectively inviting Stree.
Vicky, Bittu, Rudra and the Girl decide to consult the book's author, Shastri, for a permanent solution to save the town. Shastri reveals that Stree was once an exceptionally beautiful courtesan desired by all the men in town. She eventually found her true love who was in love with her soul and not her body and was set to marry him, but on their wedding night, both she and her husband were killed by jealous townsmen. Since then, her spirit has been trying to sought her true love and aims to abduct every man in the town for revenge.
Shastri mentions a prophecy about a savior, describing his characteristics and Vicky appears to fit the description. However, when he remembers that the savior is the son of a courtesan, his friends reveal that he is indeed a courtesan's son, which angers him, and he leaves in frustration. In a drunken state, Vicky confronts his father, who silently acknowledges this, deepening Vicky's turmoil. Eventually, Vicky feels grateful for his father's affection and resolves to save the town that has accepted him. The group devises a plan to kill Stree, but Vicky hesitates upon realizing she only seeks love and respect. The Girl suggests cutting Stree's long braid, the source of her power. Vicky follows through, and Stree vanishes.
The next day, the Girl leaves the town, and Vicky bids her farewell, forgetting to ask her name. On the bus, she merges Stree's braid with her own hair before vanishing, implying that she is the witch seeking Stree's power. The following year, Stree returns to Chanderi and discovers a statue of herself at the town entrance, accompanied by a new phrase: "O Stree Raksha Karna" (Oh Woman Protect Us). This display of respect leads her to refrain from entering the town.
In November 2017, it was reported that Dinesh Vijan had finalised Rajkummar Rao as the lead actor for his next film, a comedy horror written by Raj & DK. Raj & DK revealed that the urban legend Nale Ba, which means "come tomorrow" in Kannada, was the core idea behind the film. They found the concept of a ghost turning back upon reading the sign "absurd and funny" and aimed to develop a unique perspective, featuring a gender reversal where the ghost targets men and men are afraid to go out at night.[10][11]
In December 2017, Shraddha Kapoor announced on Twitter that she would collaborate with Rajkummar Rao and Maddock Films on their upcoming project.[12][13][14] In January 2018, it was confirmed that the film would be titled Stree, directed by Amar Kaushik.[15][16] To prepare for his role, Rao received a sewing machine, and a tailor visited him daily for 20 days to teach him how to sew.[17][18]
Filming
Principal photography for Stree began on 13 January 2018 in Chanderi and the first schedule concluded on 30 January 2018.[19][20] The second shooting schedule took place in Bhopal in March, chosen by producer Dinesh Vijan for its associated mysterious stories.[21] Upon arrival, locals informed the production team about unexplained events in the area and necessary safety precautions. In response, guidelines were created and displayed in all rooms within the fort.[22][23]Shraddha Kapoor completed half of her filming schedule in just 10 days.[24] The final shooting schedule wrapped up on 1 May 2018.[25] After filming was complete, a promotional song featuring Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor was shot in Mumbai in May 2018.[26] Although the promotional song "Aao Kabhi Haveli Pe", featuring Kriti Sanon alongside Rao and Badshah, was filmed, it ultimately remained as background music in the film.[27][28]
The music for the film has been composed by Sachin–Jigar.[29] The lyrics are written by Vayu except for one song "Aao Kabhi Haveli Pe" which is written by Badshah and Jigar Saraiya.[30] The score is composed by Ketan Sodha.[31] The entire soundtrack album, comprising four tracks, was released on 17 August 2018 by T-Series.[32]
Release
Stree was theatrically released worldwide on 31 August 2018.[33]
Reception
Critical response
Stree received positive critical reception. On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 79% of 14 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 6.3/10.[34]
Anupama Chopra of Film Companion gave the film 3.5 stars out of five, stating that "With laughs and scares, Stree delivers an important message."[35]Anna M. M. Vetticad of Firstpost also rated it 3.5/5, praising Rao's acting and the film's humor. She wrote that "The primary reason why Stree is so effective, though, is that it does not caricature the people of Chanderi—they are as real and foolish, prejudiced, and good as most human beings are, and could well be you or me with less sophistication.[36]Rajeev Masand of News18 gave it 3.5 out of 5, stating, "Stree is especially entertaining, packed with laugh-aloud moments and a cast that's on top of their game. It's one of the most original films this year, and I recommend that you make time for it."[37]
Rachit Gupta of The Times of India offered 3.5 out of 5, noting the superlative writing and dialogues, but felt the film was a little too long and had some "ambiguous ideas".[38]
Raja Sen of the Hindustan Times took a more moderate tone, commending the actors' energy and collaborative efforts but noting a rushed-feeling plot: "The laughs are inconsistent, and the plotting feels sloppy and rushed. The ideas are fine, but the writing needed work."[39]
Box office
Stree collected ₹6.82 crore in India on the first day.[40] In its first week, the film grossed ₹60.39 crore in India,[41] surpassing its production budget of ₹23–25 crore.[2][3] By the end of the second week, the film had grossed ₹95.53 crore.[42] Overall, the film grossed ₹180.76 crore at the box office during its theatrical run.[4]
