Mumbai: Bollywood star Shraddha Kapoor is riding high on the success of her latest film, Stree 2. The movie has been a massive hit, and by tomorrow, it’s expected to cross Rs. 400 crore in earnings, just in time for the Janmashtami celebrations.
With no big movies releasing soon, Stree 2 is set to continue its winning streak at the box office. As the film moves closer to the Rs. 500 crore mark, Shraddha Kapoor’s popularity is soaring.
Her recent success has even pushed her ahead of Priyanka Chopra Jonas in terms of total box office collections, with Shraddha now having earned Rs. 1,638.77 crore across her films.
She’s now ranked fifth among Bollywood’s top female actors, following Deepika Padukone, Katrina Kaif, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and Alia Bhatt. Shraddha is also hugely popular on social media, with over 92.2 million followers on Instagram, making her the second most-followed Indian celebrity after cricket star Virat Kohli.
Despite her success, Shraddha Kapoor has also passed up some big movie roles over the years. Here are some of the films she turned down: Director SS Rajamouli offered Shraddha a role opposite Jr NTR in RRR (2022), but she had to decline because of her busy schedule. The film later became a huge hit, earning Rs.
1,131 crore worldwide, and won an Oscar for Best Original Song with “Naatu Naatu.” Shraddha was initially cast to play badminton star Saina Nehwal in a biopic but had to leave the project due to illness. She was replaced by Parineeti C.
