Bollywood is buzzing once again as director Homi Adajania gears up to bring audiences the much-awaited Cocktail 2. A decade after the cult classic Cocktail redefined friendship, love, and heartbreak on-screen, the sequel promises to recreate the same magic with a brand-new star cast. Featuring Kriti Sanon, Rashmika Mandanna, and Shahid Kapoor in lead roles, the film is already generating massive hype thanks to its glamorous BTS glimpses and exotic shoot locations.
Homi Adajania Teases Fans with BTS Glimpses
Director Homi Adajania has dropped unseen behind-the-scenes snaps from Cocktail 2, leaving fans buzzing with excitement. The candid shots feature Kriti Sanon in a chic black outfit exuding pure diva vibes, while Rashmika Mandanna is seen sweating it out in the gym, hinting at her power-packed role. With such early teasers, fans can’t wait to see how this spiritual sequel unfolds.
Shahid, Kriti & Rashmika’s Stylish On-Set Looks
Adding to the frenzy, leaked clips from Sicily, Italy show Shahid Kapoor in a breezy red-and-white shirt paired with shorts, while Kriti rocks a boho-glam look with a bikini top, layered shirt, and tasseled skirt. Rashmika’s athletic prep adds even more intrigue.
The holiday-ready vibes scream romance, drama, and sun-soaked chaos — perfectly echoing the essence of Cocktail.
A Legacy of Love, Drama & Heartbreak
The original Cocktail (2012), starring Saif Ali Khan, Deepika Padukone, and Diana Penty, turned the love triangle into a pop-culture storm, dividing audiences into “Team Meera” and “Team Veronica.” With Cocktail 2, director Adajania promises the same intoxicating blend of friendship, heartbreak, and unforgettable moments, but with a fresh story and a dazzling new cast.
Release & Production Details
Backed by Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Films and penned by Luv Ranjan, Cocktail 2 is slated for a late 2026 theatrical release. While the storyline remains under wraps, it’s being described as a “spiritual sequel” — not continuing the original tale, but capturing its emotions and energy for a new generation. With such a stellar cast and dreamy location, expectations are sky-high.
