MUMBAI: The Maddock Horror Comedy Universe began with the 2018 release of Stree, which starred Shraddha Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao, Pankaj Tripathi, Abhishek Banerjee, Aparshakti Khurana, and others. Directed by Dinesh Vijan, the film was well-received and marked the start of the franchise. 

The film effectively introduced audiences to the horror comedy genre, receiving widespread acclaim and affection. It quickly became a favorite among meme creators, generating considerable buzz long after its release.

Following Stree, the Maddock Horror Comedy Universe expanded with films like Bhediya, featuring Varun Dhawan and Kriti Sanon; Roohi, starring Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor; and the recently released Munjya, with Abhay Verma, Sharvari, and Mona Singh. Munjya, the latest addition to the MHCU, offers intriguing hints about the upcoming Bhediya and Stree 2.

Following the release of the teaser for Stree 2, excitement surged among fans as they got their first look at Rajkummar Rao, Shraddha Kapoor, and a brief glimpse of Tamannaah Bhatia. The film's trailer, which has now been unveiled, has captivated the audience and seems to deliver everything they were anticipating—and a bit more.

Earlier, we reported that Akshay Kumar is expected to make a cameo appearance, with a potential cameo by Kriti Sanon also being speculated. Now, there's a significant update regarding the film’s release date. 

According to reports, Stree 2, originally scheduled for release on August 15, will now debut a day earlier on August 14. Additionally, special night shows will be held for fans at 7:30 PM. This strategic move aims to gain an advantage in the upcoming clash with Khel Khel Mein and Vedaa on August 15.

It looks like Stree 2 is set to make a big impact, and anticipation is running high.
