Stree 2 cast settles the credit war

On Monday, Star Gold’s official Instagram handle shared a video showing the team of Stree 2 together for a roundtable discussion about the film’s credit. Director Amar says, “So logon ne itna pyaar diya humari Stree 2 ko. To mujhe lagta hai humari jo ye Stree 2 hai…(So the audience has given so much love to our film Stree 2. I feel our film…)" Abhishek Banerjee, who plays Jana in Stree 2, interrupted him and said, “Wo meri film hai. (It’s my film)." This left Shraddha Kapoor in splits, who then said, “Ye meri film hai (this is my film)." Rajkummar Rao then added, “Bolne ki zarurat nahi hai, audience ko pata hai Stree 2 meri film hai. (No need to say, the audience knows Stree 2 is my film)."

Stree 2 television premiere

Aparshakti Khurana also joined the playful fight and said, "Baat khulegi toh dur tak jaayegi (If this matter comes out, it will go a long way)." Everyone was seen stopping Aparshakti from speaking. Filmmaker Amar then pointed to himself, and all the actors laughed and agreed with him saying, “Film toh director ki wajah se hi hai (The film exists because of the director)." The team then finally settled the debate by saying, “Ye picture humari picture nahi, ye aapki (audience) picture hai. (It’s not our film, it’s yours)." While the film already released on OTT last year, it is now set to have its television premiere on Star Gold on Saturday, March 15, at 8 pm.
