BY SACNILK
Mumbai, June 15 - Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, and Rashmika Mandanna's much-awaited romantic comedy drama Cocktail 2 is showing promising signs at the box office ahead of its release on June 19. The film's advance booking commenced on June 14, and the initial response from audiences has been encouraging, indicating healthy anticipation for the sequel.

In the first 24 hours of advance sales, Cocktail 2 sold approximately 11,000 tickets (without block seats) for its opening day nationwide, with the current ticket sold count standing at 32,000, with over 2 days still left for the release. While the numbers are still in their early stages, the response suggests that the film has managed to generate considerable interest among moviegoers, particularly in urban multiplex circuits where romantic entertainers traditionally perform well.
The positive booking trend has strengthened trade expectations for the film's opening day collection. According to early projections, Cocktail 2 is expected to open in the 12 crore to 15 crore net range in India, which would comfortably place it among the better Bollywood openings of the year. If the film manages to sustain its current booking momentum over the coming days, the higher end of that range could also come into play.

Cocktail 2 First Day Advance Booking Report
The original Cocktail, released in 2012, had opened to 10.95 crore net at the Indian box office and went on to emerge as one of the most successful urban romantic dramas of its time. Based on the sequel's early pre-sales performance, Cocktail 2 appears well-positioned to surpass the opening-day collection of the first film and set a new benchmark for the franchise.
Importantly, the film still has four full days remaining before release. Industry trends suggest that advance booking activity for major Bollywood releases typically accelerates significantly during the final 48 hours, particularly with spot bookings and last-minute ticket purchases contributing heavily to overall sales.

Directed by Homi Adajania, Cocktail 2 brings together Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, and Rashmika Mandanna in a fresh romantic tale while carrying forward the brand value established by the cult 2012 hit. The film's music, star cast, and promotional campaign have all contributed to building awareness among audiences.
With encouraging advance bookings, strong urban appeal, and a popular franchise name behind it, Cocktail 2 is currently on track for a double-digit opening. The next few days of pre-sales will determine whether the film can push beyond expectations and emerge as one of Bollywood's biggest romantic-comedy openings in recent years.
