Cocktail 2’s Box Office Buzz Fizzles Out as Second Monday Brings a Steep Fall

The party’s winding down for Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, and Rashmika Mandanna’s romantic drama. Cocktail 2 pulled in just Rs. 1.35 crore on its second Monday, marking a steep 60% drop from the previous Friday and a brutal 75% week-on-week slide. The film’s second week added Rs. 12.60 crore in four days, pushing its total domestic haul to Rs. 76.60 crore nett.

Directed by Homi Adajania, the film is expected to close its second week near Rs. 15 crore, crossing the Rs. 80 crore mark. Industry estimates suggest a lifetime total around Rs. 85-90 crore nett, a number that looks decent on paper but comes with a caveat: trade trackers note the run has been aided by external promotional push rather than pure audience pull.

Compare that to the 2012 original Cocktail, which collected close to Rs. 74.50 crore nett and was certified a Clean Hit. While the sequel has technically crossed that figure in face value, adjusted for inflation, it falls well short, making it a box office flop despite the bigger star cast.
