Stree 2 with Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor in the lead is on an unstoppable run at the box office. The movie, which also features Abhishek Banerjee, Pankaj Tripathi, and Aparshakti Khurrana, has now become the top earning Hindi film at Indian box office, surpassing Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan.
In an interview with DNA, actor Abhishek who scored big with Stree 2 spoke about that critical appreciation versus audience love. The latter is a certain winner.
In an interview, Abhishek stated, “Critically, the appreciation we get for our performance varies. It’s individual opinion and no matter how good you are, there will always be some people who won’t find your performance at par. But when we begin acting, that time we are only looking at being accepted by the audience. We want love from the public. That is important.”
He went on to add, “There are times when you are doing everything right but the audience is not noticing. The critics are calling you great. But you feel the ones who I really want to connect with are not here. Let me tell you the truth, critical appreciation se pet nahi bharta (critical appreciation does not feed your stomach).”
The movie also featured Akshay Kumar in a cameo role.
