Plot summary

In Chanderi, an old belief holds that a spirit called Stree takes men away during a four-day festival each year. All that is ever found of them are the clothes they had on. To keep her off, residents write O Stree Kal Aana on the walls of their homes, and after ten at night the men stay indoors. Vicky earns his living as a tailor who stitches clothes for women. One day a woman he has never met comes to him with a lehenga she wants made, and he is drawn to her. The woman is rarely seen in Chanderi and goes away for long spells.

Did you know?!Facts and trivia about Stree (2018)

Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.

  • The second schedule of Stree moved to Bhopal because producer Dinesh Vijan wanted the city's mysterious stories; locals told the team about unexplained events, so guidelines were posted in every room of the fort.
  • For his role in Stree, Rajkummar Rao was given a sewing machine, and a tailor visited him daily for 20 days to teach him how to sew.
  • Stree grew out of the Kannada urban legend Nale Ba, meaning "come tomorrow". Raj & DK turned it into a gender reversal, with a ghost that targets men, who are afraid to go out at night.
  • The promotional song "Aao Kabhi Haveli Pe", featuring Kriti Sanon with Rajkummar Rao and Badshah, was filmed but ended up only as background music in Stree.
