Shraddha Kapoor’s Fans Upset Over “Witch-Like Laugh” Comment – Stree 2 Team Yet to Respond.

The Stree movie franchise has become a massive hit, especially in 2024, as it turned out to be the highest-grossing Hindi film of the year. With its mix of horror and comedy, the film continues to win hearts on digital platforms. However, a recent comment about lead actress Shraddha Kapoor has sparked controversy and left her fans very upset.

What Happened?

During a recent conversation with film critic Komal Nahta, Stree director Amar Kaushik shared a behind-the-scenes story about Shraddha Kapoor’s casting in the original Stree film. He mentioned that producer Dinesh Vijan had a funny experience while flying with Shraddha Kapoor and made a comment that didn’t sit well with fans.

Amar Kaushik recalled that Dinesh Vijan once told him, jokingly, that Shraddha’s laugh reminded him of a “chudail” (witch). According to Amar, Dinesh said something like, “Amar, when she laughs, it’s exactly like Stree — just like a witch laughs. Sorry, Shraddha.”

Amar added that he couldn’t clearly remember whether the exact word used was “chudail” or something else. But he found the comment amusing and even asked Shraddha to laugh when he met her for the first time. He stated, “The credit for Shraddha’s casting goes entirely to Dinesh Vijan. He met her on a flight and said she laughs like Stree — like a witch. Sorry, Shraddha.”

Fans Not Happy With the Remark

Although it may have been a light-hearted joke, the comment has gone viral on social media, especially on X (formerly Twitter). Fans of Shraddha Kapoor are expressing their anger, saying the remark was disrespectful. Many believe that calling her laugh “witch-like” was unnecessary and in poor taste, even if it was said as a joke.

Supporters of the actress are now demanding an apology and more respect for Shraddha, who has played a key role in making the Stree franchise successful.

Silence from Shraddha Kapoor and the Stree 2 Team

As of now, neither Shraddha Kapoor nor the team behind Stree 2 has made any official statement regarding the comment. Shraddha has stayed quiet on the issue and maintained her usual grace, choosing not to engage with the controversy.

The silence has only added to the fans’ curiosity, and many are hoping for some clarification or a response from the people involved. Whether the comment was misunderstood or just poor word choice, the controversy has definitely stirred emotions among audiences.

What’s Next?

While the Stree franchise continues to dominate streaming platforms and prepare for its next big release, this incident reminds us how even casual remarks can create a storm—especially when made about public figures.

Shraddha Kapoor’s fans have made it clear: they expect their favorite star to be treated with the respect she deserves. All eyes are now on the producers and the film’s team to see if they will address the issue.
