Rajkummar Rao on Wednesday June 6, 2018, took to Twitter to unveil the first teaser of his forthcoming film Stree. The teaser which is only 59 seconds long is highly intriguing and very spooky.

The actor wrote on Twitter, “Stree ke baare mein zyada nahi jaanta hoon, bas sab kehte hain aa rahi hai woh.” Enough to grip our hearts, we can't wait for this spookfest to hit the theatres.

The teaser opens in a semi-urban are where no one can be seen but a voice in the background says, “O Stree, kal aana. Yahan koi mard nahi,” and on the walls of every house there is written in red paint the phrase, “O Stree kal aana.” Towards the end of the teaser, the frame zooms out to show the feet of a woman visible hanging in the air, suggesting a murder or a suicide. The teaser is eerie and has a spooky air to it which makes one wonder what is the plot of the film, especially when the teaser states at the starting that it is based on “ridiculously true events”.
