In his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave Stree 3.5 stars. "Stree is a tour de force enlivened enormously by solid contributions from each and every technical department and the superlative turns from the principal actors. The cast is led admirably well by the splendid Rajkummar Rao. Go watch this spine-tingling film. It is completely madcap but there is method in its manic madness," he wrote.
In Stree, Shraddha apparently plays a ghost. The film is set in a small town, where men disappear mysteriously. Rajkummar Rao features as a tailor, who falls in love with Shraddha.
Stree, directed by Amar Kaushik, also stars Pankaj Tripathi and Aparshakti Khurrana in pivotal roles.
