Patralekhaa, wife of Stree 2 star Rajkummar Rao, recently shared that she has no desire to join the third installment of his and Shraddha Kapoor’s popular horror-comedy franchise.
Stree 2, starring Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor, made a significant impact at the box office after its Independence Day 2024 release. The film received widespread appreciation from audiences, and the makers have confirmed that a third installment is already in the works. However, Rajkummar’s wife, Patralekhaa, recently declined the opportunity to be a part of Stree 3, expressing her belief that his on-screen pairing with Shraddha Kapoor is exceptional.
In a recent interview with Filmygyan, when asked if she would consider joining Stree 3 opposite her husband, Patralekhaa responded, “No, Shraddha hai. Unki jodi bahut mast hai. Abhishek hai, Apar hai, Pankaj, wo world set hai (No, Shraddha is there; Their pairing is amazing. Abhishek is there, Aparshakti is there, Pankaj, that world is set).”
Stree 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the 2018 hit Stree, continuing the eerie events in the town of Chanderi. The film sees Rajkummar Rao, Shraddha Kapoor, Abhishek Banerjee, Aparshakti Khurana, and Pankaj Tripathi reprising their beloved roles. Presented by Jio Studios and Dinesh Vijan, the film is directed by Amar Kaushik and produced by Dinesh Vijan and Jyoti Deshpande.
On Rajkummar’s 40th birthday, Patralekhaa shared a heartfelt message on Instagram, praising her husband’s achievements. “Happy Birthday Raj… What a massive year you have had..Beginning with Srikanth to Mahi to Stree.. We often debate to be a great actor does one have to be a good human being? The answer is yes and I can confidently say this because of You.. Cheers to many more characters to many more blockbusters to your uniqueness to your burning passion for your art & to your integrity.. Love you.”
Meanwhile, Patralekhaa recently appeared in the Netflix limited series IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack, receiving praise for her portrayal of air hostess Indrani. Released on August 29, the series, directed by Anubhav Sinha, stars Vijay Varma, Dia Mirza, Naseeruddin Shah, Kumud Mishra, Pankaj Kapur, Pooja Gor, Amrita Puri, and others, and is based on true events.
