Raja Sen | Hindustan Times: 3/5
This comedy about a female ghost is pretty crazy, but despite good performances, the lines aren’t funny enough and the plot isn’t clever enough ... Full Review

Rachit Gupta | Times of India: 3/5
Despite all its flaws and ambiguous ideas, Stree is still an entertaining film. This is an experimental comedy, that creates an eerie atmosphere and it manages to be funny and scary at the same time ... Full Review

Shubra Gupta | The Indian Express: 2.5/5
Shraddha Kapoor’s part is a bit risible, but she has some breathy moments with Rajkummar Rao. Rao, whose Bicky seems like an extension of his Bareilly Ki Barfi avatar, carries the film ... Full Review

Rajeev Masand | News18: 3.5/5
Stree is especially entertaining, packed with laugh aloud moments and a cast that’s on top of their game. It’s one of the most original films this year, and I recommend that you make the time for it ... Full Review

Saibal Chatterjee | NDTV: 3.5/5
Aparshakti Khurana steals many a scene, Pankaj Tripathi is in cracking form in this spine-tingling film ... Full Review

Umesh Punwani | Koimoi: 3.5/5
A Ridiculously True Phenomenon Entertainingly Told! Rajkummar Rao, as usual, steals the show ... Full Review

Sreehari Nair | Rediff: 2/5
Not only are the concerns expressed in Stree (patriarchy, consent, prejudice against women) mere excuses to touch our 'sentimental hotspots', the movie itself is a few tricks cobbled together ... Full Review

Anna MM Vetticad | FirstPost: 3.5/5
Raj Kummar Rao & Co are a hoot, Shraddha Kapoor is nicely intimidating in an unusual horror flick ... Full Review

Meena Iyer | DNAIndia: 3.5/5
If you’re in the mood for some humour, go for it. When things get scary, just close your eyes, but don’t miss the dialogue. It’s witty and winsome ... Full Review

Samrudhi Ghosh | India Today: 3/5
Stree has its flaws, but is one of the better horror comedies to come out of the Bollywood stable in recent times. Watch the film for its satire and stellar performances ... Full Review

Anupama Chopra | Film Companion: 3.5/5
The energy also dips in the second half. But thankfully the narrative rebounds and the humor keeps the film afloat. With laughs and scares, Stree delivers an important message ... Full Review

Shalu Singh | India TV: 3.5/5
Rajkummar Rao, Shraddha Kapoor's film is spooky and crazy packed with brilliant performances ... Full Review

Nandini Ramnath | Scroll: 3/5
A top-notch cast and steady humour elevate lightweight material ... Full Review

Shilajit Mitra | The New Indian Express: 3.5/5
A tasteful satire told through humour and fright. This is a film where supernatural beliefs are dragged to the extremes of self-parody and then dragged back up panting puffing and gasping for breath ... Full Review

Bollywood Hungama: 3.5/5
STREE is a unique concoction of humour and horror that floors you completely ... Full Review

Namrata Joshi | The Hindu: 3/5
Between chuckles and stabs of fear the film offers some lessons in gender sensitivity ... Full Review

Shilpa Jamkhandikar | Reuters: 3.5/5
What takes the film a notch above the usual fare, though, are the performances. Rao is in top form, exhibiting perfect comic timing ... Full Review

Uday Bhatia | Live Mint: 3.5/5
‘Stree’ has better comic timing than scare tactics. Amar Kaushik's film attempts to give the folk legend of the vengeful female spirit a subversive spin ... Full Review

Mayur Sanap | Deccan Chronicle: 3/5
A good attempt to blend styles that are hard to blend. This Rajkummar Rao starrer brings a refreshingly comedic twist to a horror genre making it entertaining and surprisingly thought-provoking ... Full Review

Ahmed Sharif | Deccan Herald: 3.5/5
However, the film overall is a riot. It makes us combine a squeal and a giggle. We need a word for that. Squiggle? ... Full Review

Mayank Shekhar | Mid-Day: 3.5/5
Rajkummar Rao, in absolute top form, plays this part to near perfection, adding yet another facet to his filmography that is probably as, if not more eclectic than any of his contemporaries ... Full Review

Economic Times: 3/5
The movie delivers a message with pinch of humour, horror. The comic timing of the entire cast is on point and offers several doses of laughter ... Full Review

Vishal Verma | Glamsham: 3.5/5
Brilliant mashup of laughter and horror ... Full Review

Ankur Pathak | The Huffington Post: 3.5/5
A sharp film that expertly treads the fine line between humor and horror to present a biting commentary on patriarchy and societal oppression ... Full Review

Priyanka Bhadani | The Week: 3/5
The comedy in the film is self-aware, making the experimentation with the less-explored genre in Hindi cinema a successful one ... Full Review

Manjusha Radhakrishnan | Gulf News: 3.5/5
But credit has to be given where it is due. Stree was a creative experiment and it worked for most parts ... Full Review

Ashwin Bharadwaj | Lens Men Reviews: 4/5
After laughing continuously for two hours, including moments that made me applaud till my palm turned red, not giving this rating would be a dishonest action ... Full Review

Ajit Duara | Open Magazine: 3/5
Clever writing of memorable lines, and for the simple pleasure of watching Rajkummar Rao play a naive and sentimental lover with such natural charm, ‘Stree’ is worth a watch ... Full Review

Poulomi Das | Arre: 2.5/5
In Amar Kaushik’s Stree, gender roles are reversed: Men are forced to comply with society’s impractical rules and police their behaviour for no fault of their own. The film uses its supernatural spirit to imagine a safer world for women, but fails to eventually carry it through ... Full Review

Meetu | Wogma: 3.5/5
The comedy and social take work, even while the horror and romance are just about ok as a side. Put together though the genre mix gives the film a unique flavour making the smartly written script quite enjoyable ... Full Review
