Rajkummar Rao shares the fresh update on Stree 3: "We won’t be making it.."

Stree 2 featuring Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor rocked the box office, hitting over Rs 800 crore and becoming the top-grossing Hindi film of the year. Post success of Stree 2, fans are now eagerly waiting for the next chapter in the Stree franchise. Rajkummar spills the beans on Stree 3.

Rajkummar Rao emphasized the importance of not getting swept up in the hype but rather staying focused on delivering high-quality content. He told Showsha, “Stree 3 will certainly happen but not anytime soon. We won’t be making it next year for sure because we don’t want to make just a project. Sometimes, a film does well and you would want to encash on it by making a second or a third part and you end up making it in a hurry. There’s a reason why we took six years to come up with Stree 2 after the first film."

He further added, “Stree 3 will also take some time but definitely not six years. Till the time Amar (Kaushik; director), the writers, Dinoo (Dinesh Vijan; producer) and the whole team don’t come up with a great story, we don’t want to rush into it. We don’t want to make a film that leads people to say that the franchise value, quality or standard is going down. We want to keep pushing our boundaries and take part three a notch above."

While talking about his character, he said,“I relate so much to Vicky’s goofiness and simplicity. There’s nothing bad in his heart. He’s so pure. At the same time, he can have a lot of fun with his friends. I’m that guy as well. But I don’t think I’ll ever fall in love with a ghost (laughs)," he exclaims.

In addition to Stree 2, Rajkummar Rao showcased his talent in movies like Srikanth, Mr & Mrs Mahi, and Vicky Aur Vidya Ka Who Wala Video in 2024. His diverse roles kept audiences entertained throughout the year.
