Stree 3 is coming — and it’s not landing anytime soon. Dinesh Vijan confirmed the film will hit screens in 2028, a full two years after Stree 2: Sarkata Ka Atras wrapped its global run. No plot details, no cast names, not even a hint of where the story picks up.

Just the date: 2028. And the window? Possibly Independence Day or Christmas. That’s all Vijan would give, and even that felt like a leak from Amar Kaushik’s script vault.

“He’ll get upset,” Vijan said, laughing. “I’ve already given too much away.” The script is done. That’s the only real confirmation. The rest is speculation dressed as promise.

The franchise has already made over Rs. 1,400 crore worldwide on just two films. Stree (2018) made Rs. 350 crore on a Rs. 25 crore budget. Stree 2 (2024) grossed Rs. 870 crore with a Rs. 60 crore spend. That’s not just success.

It’s a formula. And now, they’re doubling down. Rajkummar Rao was there at the event, reminiscing about the original shoot. “We were just laundas,” he said, smiling.

“Cracking jokes, making fun, trying to build something real.” He didn’t say if he’s back. But the energy, he insisted, is still there. The same one that powered the first film. The same one that turned a low-budget horror-comedy into a cultural touchstone.

The Maddock Horror Comedy Universe, Bhediya, Munjya, Thamma. Is growing. Stree 3 could be the anchor. Or the next domino.

What happens next? The script is written. The team is ready. Now, the clock starts ticking. 2028 isn’t a release date.

It’s a deadline.
