The Bollywood film industry has witnessed an exhilarating wave of success with the release of “Stree 2.” This horror-comedy sequel, which hit theaters on August 15, has taken the box office by storm, making a significant impact on both audiences and critics alike. At the center of this success is actress Shraddha Kapoor, who has proven her mettle and shattered existing records, leaving her contemporaries like Priyanka Chopra in her wake.
Shraddha Kapoor’s Meteoric Rise
Shraddha Kapoor, known for her roles in movies like “Aashiqui 2” and “Ek Villain,” has solidified her status as one of the leading actresses in Bollywood with “Stree 2.” The film not only showcases her exceptional acting skills but also highlights her popularity, which has soared to new heights. As the box office collection continues to rise, it’s clear that Shraddha’s appeal is captivating audiences across India and beyond.
Breaking Records and Setting New Standards
As of now, “Stree 2” is showing no signs of slowing down. Typically, the momentum of films starring top actresses in Bollywood would taper off by the 11th day of release. However, “Stree 2” is defying expectations, continuing to break records. Among the top actresses—such as Deepika Padukone, Katrina Kaif, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and Alia Bhatt—Shraddha has emerged as a formidable force, now recognized as the fifth most powerful heroine in the industry. Her film’s success has eclipsed that of Priyanka Chopra, whose films have accumulated a total collection of ₹1603.87 crores.
Comparative Box Office Performances

| Deepika Padukone | 3195.40 |

| Kareena Kapoor | 2429.30 |

Insights into Actress Earnings and Collaborations
Each of these actresses has carved a niche for themselves in the industry, but notably, Shraddha’s recent success comes without a heavy reliance on the Khan trio’s star power. While other actresses have collaborated with Salman, Shah Rukh, and Aamir Khan, Shraddha has managed to generate impressive box office figures through her films alone. This unique attribute sets her apart and adds a distinctive dimension to her growing appeal in the industry.
The Future of Shraddha Kapoor
With her talent and the overwhelming host of positive responses to “Stree 2,” Shraddha Kapoor’s future in Bollywood looks exceedingly bright. As she continues to take on diverse roles and push the boundaries of her on-screen persona, fans eagerly anticipate her next projects. Her growing box office numbers and record-breaking success underscore her status as one of the leading heroines in contemporary Indian cinema.
