Did I say hilarious? Ya well, let me say it again. So if GGG was nutty and over the top, with Stree they have managed to be nutty, hilarious, ridiculous, scary to the point of being terrifying in places, feminist, secular and political in various ways, wistful, and just all-round rollicking fun. Ergo: when they do horror, don't go expecting Bhoot. These gentlemen are clearly not interested in the straight and wide path. If you have seen Shor and GGG you might understand why and how the crazy idea for Stree might have come to Raj and DK. This literate, obedient, stupid spook and the equally dimwitted townsfolk are the subject of director Amar Kaushik's Stree written by Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK (credited as Raj and DK) who have so far directed the brilliant yet unassuming, highly under-recognised Shor In The City (2011) and the wacko zombie comedy Go Goa Gone (2013) with Saif Ali Khan, among other films.
