Aparshakti’s portrayal of Bittu was commendable, and his dialogue, “Bikki Pleajjj!” went viral. Bittu forms an integral part of the film's narrative, providing both comic relief and emotional depth. His natural comedic timing and relatable charm add a layer of authenticity to the film's storyline. What truly shines is the palpable chemistry he shares with Rajkummar Rao's character, and the effortless camaraderie he establishes with Abhishek Banerjee's role, creating a trio that not only entertains but also leaves a mark on the audience's memory. Now that the sequel, ‘Stree 2’, is in the making, fans of the film are eagerly awaiting what this awesome trio has in store for them.
