Cocktail 2 Box Office Prediction: Can Shahid Kapoor’s Rom-Com Beat Kartik Aaryan’s 5-Year Maddock Record?
Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon and Rashmika Mandanna’s upcoming film could become one of Maddock Films’ biggest openers
The Impressive TimesThe excitement around the upcoming romantic comedy Cocktail 2 is growing rapidly as the film gears up for its theatrical release on June 19. Featuring Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon and Rashmika Mandanna in lead roles, the movie has already created strong buzz among fans even before its trailer launch.
Trade discussions suggest that the film may register a solid opening at the Indian box office, especially due to the popularity of its franchise value and growing social media hype.
One of the biggest advantages for Cocktail 2 is its connection to the 2012 hit Cocktail, which received appreciation from both audiences and critics. The original film built a loyal fan base over the years, and the sequel is expected to benefit from nostalgia along with fresh casting chemistry.
Apart from the sequel factor, one of the songs from the film has already gained attention online, helping the movie stay in discussions ahead of release. Industry trackers believe that if the trailer and remaining songs click with the audience, the film could comfortably post an opening day collection between Rs 12 crore and Rs 15 crore in India.
If the film manages to touch the upper side of predictions, Cocktail 2 could outperform Love Aaj Kal and enter the list of Maddock Films’ top five biggest openers in India.
The 2020 romantic drama starring Kartik Aaryan and Sara Ali Khan had opened with around Rs 12.4 crore net in India. That figure currently stands as one of the banner’s notable opening-day records.
Trade experts feel Cocktail 2 has a realistic chance of crossing that number if advance bookings remain strong and word-of-mouth turns positive during release weekend.
With audience anticipation increasing day by day, all eyes are now on whether Cocktail 2 can secure a place among Maddock Films’ top-performing openers and deliver a major comeback for Shahid Kapoor in the romantic comedy genre.
