Amar Kaushik, Shraddha Kapoor
Director Amar Kaushik, who helmed the successful horror-comedies Stree and Stree 2, recently spoke about Shraddha Kapoor’s casting in the franchise. While recalling a conversation with producer Dinesh Vijan that led to her selection, one particular remark sparked backlash from Shraddha`s fans.
In an interview with Komal Nahta, Amar shared how Shraddha came on board. He credited Dinesh for suggesting her name and revealed what made them feel she was perfect for the role. He said, "Shraddha ki casting puri ki puri Dinesh Vijan ko jaati hai. Woh Shraddha ke saath kisi flight mein aa rahe the, aur flight mein unko mili thi." (“The credit for Shraddha’s casting goes entirely to Dinesh Vijan. He was on a flight with Shraddha and met her there.”)
