In a recent interview with Indian Express, Abhishek Banerjee said that anyone who believed that Apashakti Khurrana and Shraddha Kapoor had limited screen time probably felt this way because they gave exceptional performances.
He said, "This means that the work was good and they (audience) want more of it, unko lalach (greed) ho raha hai".
A few days ago, director Amar Kaushik also gave a similar response in an interview with Bollywood Hungama and said that some people have complained about Kapoor's limited screen time. However, he noted that if Shraddha had appeared more frequently, the effect of her entry might have been diminished.
Stree 2 outpaces Animal, Gadar 2 and Jawan
As per the early trends reported by Pinkvilla, Stree 2 is expected to show a massive jump in collections on its 10th day, i.e., its second Saturday. The estimated collection of the horror-comedy on Day 10 is between Rs 35 crore, which will take the film's total collection to Rs 345 crore.
Hence, the Shraddha Kapoor starrer is set to break the records of previous films including Ranbir Kapoor's Animal (Rs 33 crore), Sunny Deol's Gadar 2 (Rs 30 crore), Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan (Rs 29 crore), and Prabhas' Bahubali 2 (Rs 26.50 crore).
