The ongoing 2024 has been quite different in terms of box office. Last year, some big-ticket releases raked in rocking numbers, but this year has left everyone surprised as several small or mid-sized films have risen to the occasion in the absence of big releases.
Munjya
Ajay Devgn and R. Madhavan’s Shaitaan impressed the audience with its trailer, but the way the film performed in theatres was beyond everyone’s expectations. After a good start, it ended up earning 150 crore net at the Indian box office and was declared a clean hit. Talking about the recently released Munjya, the Sharvari Wagh and Abhay Verma starrer had negligible pre-release buzz. It has left everyone surprised by earning 32.47 crores in just 6 days.
Both Shaitaan and Munjya belonged to the horror genre, and now even Stree 2 is a horror comedy. As the audience has already given a thumbs up to Bollywood’s horror outings in 2024, the Shraddha Kapoor starrer, which also enjoys the sequel factor, might make roaring numbers at the Indian box office.
Directed by Amar Kaushik, Stree 2 is a sequel to 2018’s Stree, which was a huge blockbuster success. Apart from Shraddha, the film also features Rajkummar Rao, Pankaj Tripathi, Abhishek Banerjee, and Aparshakti Khurana in key roles. It is rumored to feature Varun Dhawan’s cameo as Bhediya. It is scheduled to be released on August 30, 2024.The horror genre is expected to leave a mark in the ongoing year, with Stree 2 having the potential to rake in jaw-dropping numbers at the box office and steal away fans hearts.
