Rashmika and Shahid have been manifesting to work together for a long time now and seem to have finally found a project. They were supposed to reunite for Anees Bazmee’s comedy drama in 2023 but that did not happen.
Finally, Cocktail 2 will be their first film together. Rashmika who is a huge fan of the chocolate boy Shahid Kapoor is super excited for the upcoming project. On the other hand, Teen Patti actress Kriti Sanon will also be seen in a pivotal role in the film.

Friendship will be the core of the movie. While there has been no official confirmation as yet from the makers and the star cast of the film, it will be interesting to see Rashmika and Kriti Sanon fighting it out for Shahid Kapoor.
