Stree 3 Script Finished, Release Delayed to 2028
Stree 3 is the next movie in the popular Stree horror-comedy series.
Producer Dinesh Vijan says it should come out in 2028.
Director Amar Kaushik has already finished writing the script.
The makers are keeping the story secret.
Kaushik will first make Mahavatar, a movie about Bhagwan Parshuram.
Vicky Kaushal will play the main character in that film.
Mahavatar is expected to finish by June 2027, after which Stree 3 may begin filming.
Rajkummar Rao said the first Stree started as a small film but became very successful.
An earlier planned release date was August 13, 2027, but the schedule has now moved to 2028.
Producer Dinesh Vijan said Stree 3 will release in 2028, potentially around Independence Day or Christmas.
Director Amar Kaushik has completed the script, but plot details remain undisclosed.
Kaushik will first direct Mahavatar, a mythological drama about Bhagwan Parshuram starring Vicky Kaushal.
Mahavatar is expected to finish by June 2027, with Stree 3 production likely beginning toward the end of 2027.
