Stree 2 Trailer to Launch with Vicky Kaushal ‘Bad Newz’ on July 18

The much-awaited trailer for the horror-comedy sequel, Stree 2, drops this Thursday, July 18. The film brings back Shraddha Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao, Aparshakti Khurana, Pankaj Tripathi, and Abhishek Banerjee. Adding to the excitement, the trailer will appear with Vicky Kaushal, Triptii Dimri, and Ammy Virk’s upcoming film, Bad Newz, hitting theaters soon.

The 2018 film Stree took audiences by storm, blending scares and humor. Set in a small town haunted by a vengeful spirit known as “Stree,” Shraddha Kapoor plays a tailor who uncovers the town’s chilling secret. Rajkummar Rao portrays her love interest, drawn into the mystery, while Pankaj Tripathi delivers a memorable performance as the resident soothsayer. Directed by Amar Kaushik, the film became a sleeper hit, captivating audiences with its unique blend of genres.

To further pique fans’ curiosity, a teaser for Stree 2 came out in June 2024. It showcases the original characters embarking on another spooky adventure, determined to protect the town of Chanderi from a fresh wave of demonic occurrences. With the tagline “Iss baar Chanderi mein azaadi ke din hoga aatank!” (This time, terror strikes Chanderi on Independence Day!), the teaser promises a thrilling experience.

Rumors suggest Akshay Kumar will make a cameo appearance in Stree 2. Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Films and Jio Studios produce the film, aiming for a theatrical release on August 15, 2024. However, it faces stiff competition from John Abraham’s Vedaa and Akshay Kumar’s own film, Khel Khel Mein.

Directed by Anand Tiwari, Bad Newz promises to be a hilarious rom-com with a unique twist. The recently released trailer introduces the film’s offbeat storyline: Dimri’s character discovers she’s pregnant with twins, with Kaushal and Ammy Virk portraying the unexpected fathers. Bad Newz hits theaters on July 19, 2024.
