The much-awaited sequel 'Cocktail 2' hit the screens on Friday, June 19, 2026, and has taken the box office by storm. Directed by Homi Adajania, the film stars Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, and Rashmika Mandanna in lead roles. On its opening day, the film collected an estimated Rs 15 crore net in India, marking one of the biggest openings of the year.
Strong Start for Cocktail 2
The film's day 1 collection is a testament to the star power of its lead actors and the popularity of the original 'Cocktail' (2012). The movie saw an occupancy of around 40% across the country, with major contributions from multiplexes in metropolitan cities. The advance booking for the weekend also looks promising, indicating a strong hold at the box office.
Cast and Crew
Apart from the three leads, the film features a supporting cast including Dimple Kapadia, Boman Irani, and Anil Kapoor in pivotal roles. The music, composed by Pritam, has been well-received, with songs like 'Tum Hi Ho 2.0' and 'Jugni' topping the charts.
Box Office Performance
The opening day collection of Rs 15 crore net is a significant achievement, especially considering the competition from other releases. The film's performance in overseas markets has also been strong, with an estimated Rs 5 crore from international screens. Trade analysts predict that the film could cross the Rs 100 crore mark in its first weekend if the trend continues.
With positive word-of-mouth and stellar performances, 'Cocktail 2' is poised to become one of the highest-grossing films of 2026. Stay tuned for more updates on its box office journey.
