Akshay Kumar’s appearance in Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao’s horror comedy Stree 2 causes a frenzy online, with fans comparing him to ‘Indian Thanos’
Actor Akshay Kumar surprised everyone with a cameo in the movie Stree 2 alongside Shraddha Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao, and Pankaj Tripathi. The film was released on August 15, 2024, to coincide with Independence Day celebrations. Akshay’s appearance in the end credits of the film delighted the audience, with some even calling him the Indian Thanos.
After the first day’s shows ended, fans took to social media to express their excitement about Akshay’s cameo. Details about his role are still a secret, but it seems like his character will have a significant impact on the story.
One fan expressed, “The most powerful cameo in Indian cinema history that left the audience in shock… Akshay Kumar’s entry in the horror comedy universe of Stree 2 🔥”. Another fan mentioned, “Akki will be the Thanos of the Stree 2 universe.”
Another fan exclaimed, “AKSHAY KUMAR ENTRY 😭😭🔥🔥 People are loving his comedy scenes 😭🔥 WELCOME TO MHC-UNIVERSE AKKI.”
One fan even stated, “I believe Akshay Kumar deserves credit for Stree 2. His role in the movie is stronger and more entertaining than in Khel Khel Mein. Finally, Akshay Kumar will have a hit, and I hope it reaches the 300 crore club. #Stree2Review”.
Not just Akshay, but Varun Dhawan as Bhediya also caught the attention of netizens, with many anticipating his romantic storyline with Shraddha’s character.
According to Pinkvilla’s review, the comedy in Stree 2 receives mixed reactions, heavily relying on gags. The focus of the film has shifted from Stree and Shraddha Kapoor’s character to Sar-Kata, Vicky, and his friends. Fans hoping for more Stree or Shraddha Kapoor may feel somewhat let down. While Stree 2 has its strengths, it falls short due to its inconsistent comedy and the forced expansion of its movie universe. The film is now showing in theaters near you.
On the same day, Akshay Kumar’s Khel Khel Mein also hit the screens, receiving positive reviews from fans and critics alike.
