While Stree revolved around a female ghost, who was wronged in her mortal life, its follow-up focuses on a headless villain called ‘Sarkata’ with a connection to the eponymous character.
Stree 2 is the latest offering from producer Dinesh Vijan’s ambitious horror comedy universe which also includes films such as Bhediya and Munjya.
