'Cocktail 2' is one of the most anticipated Bollywood releases this month. The romantic comedy, featuring Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, and Rashmika Mandanna, is scheduled to hit theaters on June 19, 2026. A recent report has further heightened excitement around the film. According to buzz, audiences watching 'Cocktail 2' may also get a sneak peek at two major upcoming projects. The teasers of 'Prahaar – The Ujjwal Nikam Story' and 'Eetha' are reportedly being considered for attachment to the film.
Rajkummar Rao Leads 'Prahaar – The Ujjwal Nikam Story'
One of the films linked to 'Cocktail 2' is 'Prahaar – The Ujjwal Nikam Story'. This project is based on the life and journey of noted public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam. Rajkummar Rao plays the central role, joined by Wamiqa Gabbi, Jaideep Ahlawat, and Sikandar Kher in key roles. The film is directed by Avinash Arun.
Shraddha Kapoor's 'Eetha'
The second film reportedly linked to 'Cocktail 2' is 'Eetha'. The movie features Shraddha Kapoor in the role of legendary Marathi Tamasha artist Vithabai Narayangaonkar. Directed by Laxman Utekar, who received widespread appreciation for 'Chhaava', the film also stars Randeep Hooda and Mohd Zeeshan Ayyub in significant roles. 'Eetha' has become one of the most talked-about upcoming projects, presenting Shraddha in a completely different avatar.
According to Bollywood Hungama, “In all probability, these two teasers will be shown with Cocktail 2, though the final call is yet to be taken. In the past, Maddock revealed the teaser of Bhool Chuk Maaf with Chhaava, the Shakti Shalini announcement asset with Thamma, Chhaava teaser with Stree 2, etc. Hence, it won’t be a surprise if audiences are treated to the promos for Prahaar – The Ujjwal Nikam Story and Eetha alongside Cocktail 2.” The report also quoted, “Both these upcoming films look promising. Rajkummar Rao is said to have done a stellar job as Ujjwal Nikam. Meanwhile, Shraddha Kapoor has essayed a powerful, author-backed role and will be seen in a never-before-seen avatar.”
'Cocktail 2' Ready for Theatres
Meanwhile, 'Cocktail 2' is preparing for its big-screen release. The film brings together Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, and Rashmika Mandanna in lead roles and is expected to be one of the major releases of June. Ahead of its theatrical debut, the film has reportedly received an A certificate from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC).
