The recent success of Stree 2 has left fans buzzing with excitement about the future of this hit horror-comedy franchise. With the film grossing over ₹424 crores domestically and crossing ₹500 crores worldwide, anticipation for the next installment, Stree 3, is already high. As the post-credit scene of Stree 2 teases a new twist, speculation is rife about what could happen next. Could Jana, the character played by Abhishek Banerjee, emerge as a supervillain?
A Fresh Twist in Stree 2
Stree 2 captivated audiences with its blend of humor and horror, continuing the story from the first film. The sequel introduced a new villain, Sarkate, portrayed by actor Pankaj Tripathi. The post-credit scene, however, set the stage for even greater intrigue. In this scene, Akshay Kumar’s character is shown absorbing the remains of Sarkate, suggesting that he is transforming into a new, formidable supervillain.
The scene has sparked intense speculation among fans about the potential direction of Stree 3. The burning question on everyone’s mind is whether Jana, who gained special powers in the first film, will turn into a supervillain to match Akshay Kumar’s character.
Abhishek Banerjee’s Take on Jana’s Future
Abhishek Banerjee, who plays Jana, recently spoke about the possibility of his character becoming a supervillain. In an interview with Bollywood Life, Banerjee revealed that the idea of Jana evolving into a supervillain is intriguing. “It’s a good idea,” he said, though he noted that the final decision will be made by the filmmakers. He teased that Jana’s return would bring a lot of excitement to the audience, regardless of how the character is developed.
In Stree, Jana was abducted by the titular spirit and given superpowers. These powers became significant in Stree 2, where Jana played a crucial role in confronting the terror of Sarkate. Fans are now eagerly wondering if these powers will lead to a darker path for Jana in the next film.
Potential Plotlines for Stree 3
The end of Stree 2 also hinted at new directions for the story. Varun Dhawan’s character mentioned the possibility of exploring a blood-sucking vampire plot set in Delhi. This new threat could provide a fresh challenge for the characters and introduce new dynamics into the series. If Jana does become a supervillain, it could set up an epic showdown between him and the new vampire menace.
Bhumi Rajgaur’s Insights
Bhumi Rajgaur, who plays the lead role of Stree, recently shared her thoughts on the upcoming film. In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Rajgaur expressed her hope for Stree 3, given the positive response to the sequel. She mentioned that facing off against Akshay Kumar would be a daunting but exciting prospect, acknowledging Kumar’s martial arts expertise.
Rajgaur also revealed that the makers kept the script of Stree 2 under wraps, even from her. This secrecy helped maintain the film’s suspense and kept fans guessing. She only saw parts of the script through the assistant director’s phone, adding to the intrigue surrounding her role.
Looking Ahead
As fans eagerly await more details about Stree 3, the future of the franchise promises to be filled with suspense and excitement. The success of Stree 2 has set high expectations for the next chapter, and the potential for Jana’s character to take on a darker role adds an extra layer of anticipation.
