Shraddha Kapoor’s “Stree 2” has taken the audience by storm, making a significant impact at the box office. Six years after the original “Stree” graced theaters and garnered incredible responses, the makers decided to produce a sequel. However, there was a critical question that haunted the writers and producers: how to present the story to the audience in a captivating manner? Typically, when the first installment of a film succeeds, expectations for the sequel soar. Often, sequels fail to resonate as strongly with viewers, but “Stree 2” has managed to defy the odds and win over audiences. The film, featuring Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao, is currently achieving remarkable success at the box office.
The Role of ‘Sarkata’ in Stree 2
In “Stree 2”, the titular character takes on the role of a guardian, protecting her village from impending threats. The producers have introduced the ‘Sarkata’ character in this horror-comedy sequel. As viewers exit the theaters, one burning question lingers: who plays the character of Sarkata? While CGI and VFX have made Sarkata appear terrifying and immense on screen, the reality behind the character’s portrayal is quite different. As TV9 previously reported, Sarkata’s face was created separately from the actor who physically portrayed the character. The filmmakers searched for a tall actor, and they crafted a prosthetic face that effectively represented Sarkata’s visage.

Photographs featuring Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao alongside the actor who plays Sarkata have surfaced, showcasing how the two leads appear almost childlike next to him.
