Mid-Day reported that Shraddha Kapoor is a part of Rahi Anil Barve's film Pahadpangira. In May, there were rumours that the actress had left the project, but now she is reportedly back, and she is likely to not only headline the movie but also be involved in a creative capacity. Meanwhile, Barve aims to begin Pahadpangira’s shoot after completing work on his Netflix series Rakt Bramhand.
A source informed the portal, “Shraddha, who will begin shooting Laxman Utekar’s next in November, will finalise her commitment to this project after her schedule for 2026 is drawn up. If things go as planned, the film could start by mid-2026. Pahadpangira is a dark fantasy rooted in myth and folklore. She is taken by the story’s originality and believes it can be expanded into a franchise. Besides fronting it, she may serve as a creative producer on it.”
Apart from Laxman Utekar's project, Shraddha has Stree 3. She will reprise her role in the third instalment of the popular Maddock horror-comedy franchise. The film is currently scheduled for release in August 2027.
During the trailer launch of Thamma, Shraddha announced the animated film Chhoti Stree. In the Maddock Films' horror-comedy universe, Shraddha Kapoor's character is not the original Stree but her powerful daughter. Her story continues in the animated spin-off Chhoti Stree and the upcoming live-action film Stree 3, where she is cast in an important and possibly villainous role.
Sharing her excitement, Kapoor said during the event, “Guys, Maddock Horror Comedy Universe is coming out with Chhoti Stree as an animated film! It’ll be released in theatres. It’ll be a dhamaal film for kids, families, basically, for everyone.” She further added that it is a really exciting time for India, and she really feels amazing to be a part of this universe.
