Box Office Performance and Profitability:
Released earlier this month, Stree 2 quickly captured the audience’s interest and was declared a hit within its first week. As the days went by, it solidified its status as a blockbuster, drawing large crowds to theaters. Currently, Stree 2 is the second-most profitable film of the year, trailing just behind Premalu.
The film, which boasts a star-studded cast led by Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao, was produced on a budget of 60 crores. Within just 13 days of its release, it has amassed a staggering 434.10 crores at the box office. This remarkable performance translates to a return on investment (ROI) of approximately 623.50%. This ROI percentage places Stree 2 ahead of several other successful films of 2024, including HanuMan (Hindi), Kalki 2898 AD (Hindi), Shaitaan, Munjya, and Article 370.
The Benchmark Set by Premalu:
Currently holding the title of the most profitable Indian film of 2024, Premalu is a Malayalam romantic comedy that has set a high bar. Made on a relatively modest budget of 9 crores, Premalu has earned an impressive 766.10 crores over its lifetime, yielding a remarkable ROI of 745.55%. This film has achieved the distinction of being the first super-hit of the year in the Malayalam film industry, making its profitability even more noteworthy.

The Race to the Top:
To surpass Premalu and become the most profitable film of 2024, Stree 2 must achieve a total box office collection of 508 crores. With its current earnings standing at 434.10 crores, it needs to generate an additional 74 crores to reach this goal. Given the film’s strong performance and the lack of significant competition at the box office, it appears well-positioned to reach this milestone.
The current landscape shows that films like Khel Khel Mein and Vedaa are not posing substantial competition to Stree 2, leaving ample opportunity for the horror-comedy to continue its impressive run. If Stree 2 maintains its momentum and continues to attract audiences at a steady rate, it is highly likely that it will reach the 508 crore mark before the end of this weekend.
Conclusion:
As Stree 2 edges closer to becoming the most profitable film of 2024, its success story is shaping up to be one of the year’s most exciting cinematic achievements. With its impressive ROI and strong box office performance, it is clear that the film has captured the audience’s imagination and delivered a remarkable return on its investment. Fans and industry observers alike will be watching closely to see if Stree 2 can clinch the top spot and surpass the profitability of Premalu.
