Stree 2, starring Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao in the lead, wreaks havoc in the advance sales. The horror-comedy directed by Amar Kaushik is set for a mammoth start at the box office, thanks to the unprecedented response in its pre-sales. As of August 13, Stree 2 has sold 2.1 lakh tickets in the top three national chains – PVRInox and Cinepolis- and that too, only for the opening day. The makers are also organizing paid previews a day before its release, for which it has sold another around 58,000 to 60,000 tickets. 

Stree 2 sold 2.7 lakh tickets with a day to go, targets Rs 40 crore opening 

The much-awaited horror-comedy drama is just a day away from its release. The movie has already sold 2.7 lakh tickets in the top multiplex chains, including the paid previews on August 14. Keeping its sensational trend on record, Stree 2 is heading for a final advance booking of 3.5 to 4 lakh tickets in PVRInox and Cinepolis. 

The Maddock Films’ production venture is eyeing a bumper opening of Rs 40 crore, including the paid previews. However, the number might go ahead too if the on-the-spot booking is flooded at the ticket counter.

Johny Lever has entertained the audience with his work in Hindi cinema for many years. The actor has been greatly appreciated for his performances in the comedy genre of films. Today, August 14, 2024, marks his 67th birthday. On this special occasion, let’s revisit the moment when Shah Rukh Khan, Lever’s co-star in many films, including Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, called himself a ‘fan’ of the comedian. SRK also praised his ‘intelligent’ and ‘beautiful’ talks.

During an old interaction with the media at an event, Shah Rukh Khan was asked which joke of Johny Lever he liked the most. In the latter’s presence, SRK expressed that he loved everything Johny Lever told him. 

Shah Rukh said, “Aur sirf jokes nahi, actually logon ko shayad kam maloom hai, Johny bhai sabse intelligent, khoobsurat, philosophy aur religion ki baatein karte hain. Main inka fan isliye hun (And not just jokes; actually, not many people might know, Johny bhai does the most intelligent, beautiful talks about philosophy and religion. That’s why I am his fan).”

King Khan further added that Lever believed in God, and whenever they had to make a prayer, they went to him.
