Stree 2 box office collection day 5: Shraddha Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao-starrer becomes 2024’s biggest Hindi hit, global collections exceed Rs 300 crore

Directed by Siddharth Anand, Fighter was this year’s mega release, which opened on the Republican Day weekend. The mega-budget film, co-starring Deepika Padukone, had an underwhelming box office run, ending its lifetime at Rs 212 cr.

Stree 2 has crossed the entire run of Fighter in merely five days—a historic feat considering that it’s a mid-sized film, banking majorly on the franchise value Stree 2 will now target Prabhas-led Kalki 2898 AD, which had netted Rs 293 cr in the Hindi-speaking regions.

Stree 2 packed a strong five-day weekend, making the most of the holiday period. This is something that most big releases this year, including the Eid releases Bade Miyan Chote Miyan and Maidaan, failed to capitalise on. The Tuesday figures will finally give a clearer idea about Stree 2’s lifetime run, as it will be the film’s first working day post the extended holiday weekend.

Stree 2 will easily cross Kalki 2898 AD by the second weekend, and as per trade estimates, and should then begin its journey towards the Rs 400 cr club. The film’s Tuesday hold will also signal if Stree 2 can do the unthinkable— join the Rs 500 cr club, currently dominated by mighty, star-driven actioners.

The top-five biggest Hindi movies of all time are Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan (Rs 584cr), Gadar 2 (Rs 525cr), Pathaan (Rs 524 cr), Baahubali 2 (Rs 511 cr) and Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal, which ended its Hindi run at Rs 505 cr. Stree 2 will now chase the lifetime totals of films such as KGF: Chapter 2 (Rs 435 cr), Dangal (Rs 374 cr), Sanju (Rs 342 cr), PK (Rs 340 cr) and Tiger Zinda Hai, which stands at number 10 on the all-time list with Rs 339 cr lifetime collections.
