Mumbai: Bollywood actress Shraddha Kapoor, who is now enjoying the success of her most recent horror-comedy “Stree 2,” has spoken up on why she hasn’t yet collaborated with the holy trinity of Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, and Aamir Khan, the three superstars of Hindi cinema.
The actress from “Aashiqui 2″ told Shubhankar Mishra on a podcast that she hasn’t had the chance to collaborate with the three Khans of Bollywood yet.
She said, “Many times you are offered a film, but if you feel the character isn’t exciting enough or the role doesn’t challenge the artiste in you then you let go off that role. I’m very clear about the kind of work that I choose.”
She further mentioned, “I want to be part of good films, engaging films with good stories, work with good directors, and do good work. If the by-product of all this is the opportunity to work with good actors or huge stars, I’m happy to say yes.”
Meanwhile, Shraddha, who returned to the box office almost after 16 months, has delivered her second consecutive Rs 200 crore film with ‘Stree 2’. The first was ‘Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar’, where she starred opposite superstar Ranbir Kapoor and collected Rs 223 crores worldwide. The success of ‘Stree 2’ is a testament to her talent and hard work, and a reason for her fans to celebrate.
As per industry tracker Sacnilk, ‘Stree 2’ has netted Rs 255 crores at the Indian box office, with an additional Rs 55 crores in overseas collections, taking its worldwide collections to Rs 361.15 crore.
‘Stree 2’, which was released on Independence Day, clashed with the multi-starrer ‘Khel Khel Mein’, the John Abraham-starrer ‘Vedaa’, and the Telugu movie ‘Double iSmart’ but has managed to leave them all behind. The Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao-starrer film is witnessing the highest occupancy during evening and night shows, a clear indication of its popularity and the audience’s eagerness to watch it.
According to reports, with the huge success of Stree 2, Shraddha Kapoor surpassed Prime Minister Modi’s 91.3 million followers to become the third most followed Indian on Instagram with 91.4 million, behind cricketer Virat Kohli and actress Priyanka Chopra!
