When director Aditya Sarpotdar was asked about the possible appearances of Varun Dhawan’s Bhediya and Shraddha Kapoor’s Stree in Munjya, he told News18, “A lot of people said that our film is like a prequel to Stree or a sequel to Stree 2. There were a lot of fan theories. Some even felt like there’s a separate Stree universe and Munjya is a part of it. Making a prequel or a sequel to a hit film is tough and our film isn’t either.” He further added, “There could be connections in my films too.
