Amar Kaushik “Stree” director reacts to the ‘credit’ war on social media
The all-time hit movie “Stree” director Amar Kaushik retaliates to the evolving credit war on social media
Recently, Amar recalled the weird credit war on social media attributing that it’s very common that people around the actors always try to feed such things into their minds
Notedly, Stree 2′ is making waves at the box office. The film has scripted history and has left behind giants like ‘Pathaan’ and ‘Gadar 2’. Although contended news and love are pouring in for the Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao starrer, the social media war has had a negative effect on the film. Fans have staged a battle on social media over the real persona behind the unparalleled success of
‘Stree 2”.
According to Amar Kaushik, it isn’t something unusual. Actors usually battle on social media where claiming their favourite actor to get all the credit for the movie. It is okay.
But, fans getting into a social media war over credits is common. Also, when a film does well, people around [the stars] feed such things into the minds of everyone, including the cast ane crew of the film that they need to be credited for the movie. Hence, he just went for a vacation to distance from the noise because it is usually when you hit a certain mark that it becomes easier to get trapped in such social media games.”
When asked if these credit wars affect the equation among the cast, he elaborated, that “their bond has only gotten better. In fact, they have shot a video with the entire cast where they are replicating who gets the credit for the film and then appear saying it is my film.’ It is a fun video that they have recorded.
According to Kaushik, it’s not only the stars but everyone behind the making of the film has contributed to its success. He went on to add that everyone knows although the faces of the film were perhaps those 5-6 people, it is everyone who has worked behind the scenes that is equally responsible for the film’s success.” He further went on to add that “everyone behind and in front of the film is responsible for the success. Now, the degree of love everyone gets can be different.
The storyline of ‘Stree 2’ picks up in the haunted town of Chanderi, where the malevolent spirit known as Sarkata wreaks havoc. Unlike the previous film, which featured a ghost targeting men, this installment focuses on a sinister entity that preys on modern, empowered women.
The narrative centres around Bicky (Rajkummar Rao), Bitu (Aparshakti Khurana), JD (Abhishek Banerjee), and Rudra (Pankaj Tripathi) as they join forces with the enigmatic Stree (Shraddha Kapoor) to protect their village from Sarkata’s deadly pursuit.
