Presenting the first look poster and teaser of upcoming Bollywood horror comedy film Stree starring Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor. Directed by Amar Kaushik and written by Raj and DK, the film has been shot at Chanderi, a small town near Bhopal.
Release Date : 31st August’18.
This seems to be inspired by the Karnataka legend of Nale Ba, which originated in the 1990’s. According to the myth, a witch roams the streets in the night, in Bangalore, and knocks on the door. She tricks people by talking in the voices of their kin. Those who open it, die. To avoid her, people write ‘Nale Ba..’ which means come tomorrow in Kannada.
This eventually led to April 1st being referred to as the Nale Ba Day among Kannada locals.
The teaser takes the viewers to a abandoned semi-urban area where nobody can be seen. On the wall of every house, you can see the words etched, “Kal aana.”
Only a voice resonates in the background that’s calling a woman to come tomorrow. Towards the end, the frame zooms out and the feet of a woman are visible hanging in the air.
“Stree ke baare mein zyada nahi jaanta hoon, bas sab kehte hain aa rahi hai woh.”
