Fans eagerly awaited the trailer of Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao starrer 'Stree' which is directed by Amar Kaushik and finally the makers have released it. The horror comedy tells the tale of a 'Stree' which is believed to be a ghost woman who kills men leaving only their clothes behind and Shraddha Kapoor is believed to be her. The film is reportedly based on the Indian urban legend, Nale Ba, about a witch who knocks on people's doors at night. However here, she, floating above the ground in air, calls out their name in the dark of the night and the person disappears.

The taglines 'O Stree Kal Aana' and 'Mard Ko Dard Hoga' have been used to promote this film and we see it why, now.

While the ghost part is surely very scary, what we most loved was the crackling chemistry between Rajkummar Rao aka 'Vicky' and Shraddha Kapoor. They even shake a leg together dancing in the film. Rajkummar plays a tailor and is in love with Shraddha.

At the trailer launch a while ago, Rajkummar said about working with Shraddha Kapoor which is their first together, - "She’s phenomenal, a hard-working actor who will surprise everyone! She’s a very sweet girl and now a dear friend."

Ayushmann Khurrana's brother Aparshakti plays 'Vicky's friend and Pankaj Tripathi is the village man narrating everyone the story of 'stree' who's the believed to be the ghost of an attractive prostitute who lived in the city years ago and who was the desire of every man. She finally got a man who loved her soul instead, and truly loved her. (He ends here in the promo and the rest is mystery!)

Pankaj also entertains with some funny one liners like - "Aur ye tumhari generation ka pyar hai, first time dekha tujhe hum kho gaya, second time mei sab ho gaya!"

Film's description on YouTube reads - Stree is a first of its kind horror comedy, inspired from a true phenomenon. The film is set in a town called Chanderi, where men have started disappearing mysteriously. Is 'Stree' taking them away? Who is she and what does she want? 

So is Shraddha the ghost in the film?

All in all, the film looks very promising by seeing the trailer as it has a very good mix of comedy, horror and romance and the impeccable acting by Rajkummar with the impressive co-star Shraddha Kapoor is bound to make it a sure shot winner.

Shraddha shared the trailer too on twitter  with caption - "Aaj tak mard ke peeche bhaagte the, ab woh har mard ko dard degi! Bach paoge tum? out now "
