Shraddha Kapoor In Talks with this Blockbuster director
Stree 2 has turned out to be a game-changer in indian cinema, exceeding all expectations and joining the elite ₹600 crore net club in India—a feat few anticipated for a horror comedy. Headlined by Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao, the film’s massive success has not only reaffirmed the genre's mass appeal but also highlighted Shraddha’s box office pull. With a perfect blend of humor, horror, and heart, the sequel built on the original's cult following and delivered a theatrical spectacle that resonated across demographics. Trade experts and audiences alike were caught off guard by the film’s phenomenal run, further solidifying its place as a milestone in indian box office history.
Despite the soaring success of stree 2, Shraddha Kapoor has yet to announce her next project, leaving fans both curious and slightly disappointed. However, industry sources suggest that her silence is strategic—aimed at selecting a script that can match or even surpass her recent high. According to a report by Pinkvilla, Shraddha is currently in advanced discussions with acclaimed director Laxman Utekar, fresh off his blockbuster Chhaava. Their collaboration appears to be taking shape around a script adapted from a popular Marathi novel, and Shraddha is reportedly thrilled with the role, which would see her portraying a Maharashtrian character—adding a new cultural layer to her filmography.
The project will be produced by Maddock Films, the powerhouse banner behind both stree 2 and Chhaava, further raising expectations. The team is actively scouting for a prominent male lead to pair opposite Shraddha, aiming to bring together a compelling star cast. If everything falls into place, an official announcement could be on the horizon, marking Shraddha’s first project post-Stree 2. Given the combination of Utekar’s storytelling acumen, Shraddha’s rising stardom, and Maddock’s strong production track record, this film is already generating buzz as one of the most anticipated upcoming projects in Bollywood.
