Akshay Kumar to play the villain in 'Stree 3'? Stree 2 actor Bhumi Rajgor says ‘I have to admit, I’d be a little…’

MUMBAI: The recently released Stree 2, starring Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor, has dominated the box office with its unique blend of comedy and horror. The film left viewers excited for the next installment in the franchise with a surprise appearance by Akshay Kumar.

Bhumi talked candidly about her experience working on Stree 2 and her thoughts on the possibility of a face-off with Akshay Kumar in the much-discussed Stree 3 in an interview with the popular news portal.

“I’m not sure yet, but looking at the film’s reception, I’m hopeful there will be a Stree 3,” she said. “I have to admit, I’d be a little scared to go up against Akshay Kumar—he’s a martial arts expert after all!” she added with a laugh.

Bhumi also shared some fascinating behind-the-scenes details, such as the fact that the movie's whole script was not disclosed to her. The filmmakers kept her role a secret, even from her, to keep the mystery around her character.

“Everyone assumed Shraddha was Stree, and the truth had to be kept a secret,” Bhumi explained. “I didn’t even get to read the full script—I only got to see the climax on the assistant director’s phone during the shoot.”

Along with these revelations, Bhumi also shared a humorous anecdote about the unique vibe on set. The actress claimed that every time an actor arrived on set, a fun ritual among the filmmakers was to play a song that was associated with that character.

“Since I was playing a ghost, songs like ‘Gumnaam Hai Koi’ would be played,” Bhumi recalled. “The actor would start dancing, and everyone would join in. It really helped create a fun mood on set.”

Amar Kaushik's film, Stree 2, released in theatres on August 14 and has since been a worldwide hit. Shraddha Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao, Abhishek Banerjee, Pankaj Tripathi, and Aparshakti Khurrana are among the ensemble cast members in the movie.

Fans of the franchise are excitedly anticipating what comes next for Stree 3, especially in light of Bhumi Rajgor's intriguing hints on the character's future.
