In Stree 2, Amar Kaushik introduces a new and intriguing villain, Sarkata a giant ghost with a detachable head who targets progressive women in Chanderi. This character is largely created through CGI, but the actor behind Sarkata is Sunil Kumar, a professional wrestler from Jammu who also serves as a police constable. Sunil, who is 7 feet and 6 inches tall, is known as “The Great Khali of Jammu” due to his impressive stature, even surpassing the height of the famous WWE wrestler, The Great Khali.

Sunil Kumar, who has aspirations of representing India in the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) ring under the name “The Great Angaar,” brings a physically imposing presence to the role of Sarkata. His participation in the 2019 WWE Tryout further underscores his commitment to his wrestling career.

Stree 2: Bhediya Varun Dhawan saves Shraddha Kapoor; Fans call it ‘Best cameo of the film’

In addition to the introduction of Sarkata, Stree 2 features a highly anticipated cameo by Varun Dhawan, who reprises his role as Bhediya from the 2022 film Bhediya. Dhawan’s appearance has been a significant highlight for fans, especially in a memorable scene where his character saves Shraddha Kapoor’s character from the menacing Sarkata. This action-packed cameo has generated substantial excitement and positive reactions on social media, adding to the film’s buzz, particularly with its release over the Independence Day weekend.

The plot of the song seems to set the stage for more drama and tension as Varun’s Bhasker and Rajkummar’s Vicky compete for Shraddha’s Stree. The interaction between the characters, combined with the peppy music and the stunning visuals, has clearly struck a chord with the audience. Fans are not only thrilled to see the return of Varun and Shraddha’s jodi but are also eagerly anticipating how the story will unfold in Stree 2 and other potential spin-offs.

Stree 2 is the sequel to Amar Kaushik’s 2018 hit Stree, and it sees the return of key cast members Rajkummar Rao, Shraddha Kapoor, Pankaj Tripathi, Abhishek Banerjee, and Aparshakti Khurana. Alongside Dhawan’s cameo, the film also features appearances by Tamannaah Bhatia and Akshay Kumar, further expanding Dinesh Vijan’s horror-comedy cinematic universe under the Maddock Films banner.
