The horror-comedy film Stree 2, directed by Amar Kaushik and starring Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor, has gained significant attention since its release on August 15. The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) requested a change to a joke referencing singer Neha Kakkar, which was altered to 'Sneha Kakkar' to avoid offending audiences. Kaushik acknowledged the CBFC's concerns, stating they had a valid point, and chose not to contest the change. Despite this adjustment, he emphasized that viewers still understood the joke's intent, highlighting the film's blend of humor and relatable moments from everyday life. Stree 2 has been well-received, quickly approaching the 300-crore mark at the box office and praised for its comedic elements. The film's success is notable amidst competition from other major releases.
