The plotline of ‘Stree 2’
Based in an outdated fictional town of Chanderi, Madhya Pradesh, ‘Stree’ revolves around the legend of a female ghost who abducts men during an annual four-day festival. The spirit who is called ‘Stree’, targets any lone men and calls their name thrice and after they look behind she casts her spell by abducting him and leaving behind only the clothes of her victims. To protect themselves from the vicious spirit, the townspeople believe that painting the words “O Stree, Kal Aana” (“Oh woman, come tomorrow”) on their walls can ward her off.
In the climax of 2018, Rajkummar and Shraddha seem to successfully rescue the victims and give the proper respect to the Stree’s spirit. However, things took an unexpected turn when Shraddha’s turned out to be an unnatural being as she leaves the town after the rescue operation got over leaving the audience stunned.
