Development

On 28 November 2017, it was reported that Dinesh Vijan had finalized Rajkummar Rao to be the lead actor for his next film which would be a horror comedy written by Raj Nidimoru and Krishna D.K..[14][15] On 5 December 2017, Shraddha Kapoor informed through her Twitter handle that she would be working with Rajkummar Rao and Maddock Films in their next film.[16][17][18] On January 11, 2018 it was revealed that the title of the horror comedy would be Stree and Amar Kaushik would be the director of the film.[19][20] According to director Amar Kaushik, Rajkummar Rao plays the role of a Tailor in the film, while Shraddha Kapoor's role is that of a mysterious woman. As part of preparation for the role, Rajkummar was provided with a sewing machine and a tailor would visit him everyday for a period of 20 days so as to teach him the process of sewing clothes.[21][22]

Principal photography of the film began on 13 January 2018[23] in Chanderi, Madhya Pradesh[24] and the first schedule was wrapped up on 30 January 2018.[25][26] The second schedule of shooting took place in Bhopal in the month of March.[27] According to producer Dinesh Vijan, the location in Bhopal was chosen because of the mysterious stories associated with the place. After reaching the place, the locals informed the production team about the unexplained events that had taken place in the area and the safety precautions that they must follow. Keeping in mind the advice given by the locals, a set of guidelines to be followed by everyone were created and placed in all the rooms inside the fort.[28][29] The final schedule of shooting was completed on 1 May 2018.[30][31] After completing the shooting, a promotional song was filmed in Mumbai with Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor during May 2018.[32]
