In an interview with the news agency PTI, Niren Bhatt, who wrote the dialogues, story, and screenplay of Stree 2, said, “People have been asking for the film for six years, but we don’t dwell much into expectations. Some people complain that there is a lot of humor but less horror or vice versa, but these are not horror films where actual ghosts are haunting people.”

He added, “All our ghosts are fallacies of our society. Sarkata is the most warped form of patriarchy. Stree is the symbol of matriarchy; she is not a witch. Bhediya is the protector of the forests. We have designed these characters in a certain way. We are not talking about hocus pocus or spirits out of the blue.”
