Box Office: Shraddha Kapoor-Rajkummar Rao's 'Stree' passes the Monday test, inches closer to Rs 50 crore mark

Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao starrer horror-comedy Stree has managed to pass the Monday test at the ticket windows with flying colours. The movie continued its fantastic run at the box office on day for of its release and has  made the most of the holiday for Janmashtami. 

Stree further raked in a total of Rs 9.70 crore on the fourth day of its release. The movie is inching closer to the Rs 50 crore mark as it has managed to collect Rs 41.97 crore in just four days of its release. 

Since Tuesday will be a working weekday, it'll be interesting to see whether the movie will cross the Rs 50 crore mark on day five, or it'll do so on Wednesday. As of now, the movie is riding high on a positive word of mouth from the audience and pretty good reviews from the critics.

Fear sells... And so do comedies... The marriage of horror and humour has resulted in three major successes: #BhoolBhulaiyaa [2007], #GolmaalAgain [2017] and #Stree [2018]... Does it signal the arrival of a new trend? Will we see more horror-comedies in future?

Stree also stars Pankaj Tripathi, Aparshakti Khurrana and Abhishek Banerjee in significant roles. The Amar Kaushik directorial is being much appreciated owing to its interesting plot, cleverly-written dialogues and its message as well.
