The new production, directed by first-time filmmaker Amar Kaushik and written by Krishna and Raj, went on the floors today as well. Kaushik had assisted the writers on Go Goa Gone and recently assisted Iranian filmmaker Majid Majidi on Beyond The Clouds (2017). Kaushik has previously made the short film, Aaba, set in Ziro, Arunachal Pradesh. Aaba was showcased at the International Film Festival of India (IFFI) 2017 in November.

Earlier this week, the two leads, Rajkummar and Kapoor shared a photo of themselves at the reading session of Stree. The two posed with a finger to their lips, as if keeping the film’s title a secret. Stree, produced by Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Films, is due to be released later this year.
