The much-anticipated film ‘Stree 2’ hit theaters today and has already garnered a positive response from audiences. However, the true highlight of the movie appears to be Akshay Kumar’s surprise cameo, which has taken the internet by storm. The actor’s brief appearance, particularly in the film’s climax, has sparked excitement among fans and netizens alike.
There had been much speculation about the clash between ‘Stree 2’ and ‘Khel Khel Mein’, but Akshay Kumar’s fans have been pleasantly surprised by his unexpected entry into the horror-comedy genre. Many viewers have shared spoilers online, revealing that Akshay’s character makes a significant impact during a post-credits scene, positioning him as a major antagonist in this cinematic universe.
Social media users have been quick to share images and reactions to Akshay’s cameo, with one fan even dubbing him “the Thanos of the horror comedy universe.” For those unfamiliar, Thanos is a well-known supervillain from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a comparison that highlights Akshay’s imposing presence in the film.
The post-credits scene featuring Akshay Kumar has been described as one of the major highlights of ‘Stree 2’. The film’s makers have even expressed their gratitude to the actor, acknowledging his contribution with a message that reads, “Killer Thanks Akshay Kumar.”

Another enthusiastic fan commented, “SHAHENSHAH o ka SHAHENSHAH 💥 The King re-enters in the Horror Genre 🔥 The KING Akshay Kumar in #Stree2Review & enter Horror Universe.”
This isn’t the first time Akshay Kumar has played a villainous role. He previously portrayed a formidable antagonist in Rajinikanth’s ‘2.0’, where his performance was widely praised for its intensity.
In addition to Akshay Kumar, ‘Stree 2’ also features a cameo by Varun Dhawan. The film stars Shraddha Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao, Pankaj Tripathi, Abhishek Banerjee, and Aparshakti Khurrana in leading roles.
