Development

In October 2018, director Amar Kaushik announced his plans for a sequel to the Stree.[6] In February 2022, actor Rajkummar Rao confirmed the sequel's development.[7] In March 2023, the sequel entered the pre-production stage, with filming scheduled to commence in July 2023.[8][9] In April 2023, the makers announced that the film will release on 30 August 2024.[10] The cast include Shraddha Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao, Pankaj Tripathi, Abhishek Banerjee and Aparshakti Khurana, reprising their roles from the previous film.[11]

Filming

Principal photography commenced on 10 July 2023,[12] with the initial shoot held in Chanderi.[13] Most of the main cast was present, except for Pankaj Tripathi, who joined the sets after completing his work on Main Atal Hoon.[14][15] The second schedule began in the same place in November 2023.[16] In December, a dance number featuring Tamannaah Bhatia alongside Rao, Tripathi, Khurrana, and Banerjee, along with the director, was filmed in Bihar and choreographed by Vijay Ganguly.[17][4] According to him, it was shot under harsh weather conditions because the director wanted to capture a realistic setting, as the following scene takes place in a live location.[18] Varun Dhawan joined the set in February 2024 to shoot his special appearance, reprising his role from the film Bhediya.[19]

Music

The film's music was composed by Sachin–Jigar, with lyrics written by Amitabh Bhattacharya, and the background score by Justin Varghese. The first single titled "Aaj Ki Raat" was released on 24 July 2024.[20]
