Cocktail 2, directed by Homi Adajania and starring Shahid Kapoor in the lead role, along with Kriti Sanon and Rashmika Mandanna, recorded a nominal spike on its first Tuesday. The romantic comedy drama collected Rs. 5.50 crore on Day 5, registering a 5 per cent growth. The running cume of Cocktail 2 reached Rs. 55 crore in 5 days of its theatrical run.
Backed by Maddock Films, the movie is looking to wind up its first week around Rs. 62-65 crore nett mark, which is a good total on face value, but these numbers should be taken with an asterisk as it is aided by external factors. Had there been no support from outside, the collections would have been much lower.
However, if we consider them, these are pretty good considering how recently released rom-coms performed at the box office. The Shahid Kapoor starrer is expected to slow down with the arrival of Welcome To The Jungle in cinemas next weekend.
Day-wise Box Office Collections of Cocktail 2 are as follows:
Day Box office
Day 1 Rs. 12.50 cr.
Day 2 Rs. 15.50 cr.
Day 3 Rs. 16.25 cr.
Day 4 Rs. 5.25 cr.
Day 5 Rs. 5.50 cr.
Total Rs. 55.00 cr.
The original film, Cocktail, had an opening of Rs. 10.50 crore nett in 2012, which would be much higher if adjusted to inflation. It was a clean hit venture, with its full run ending at Rs. 74.50 crore nett. It will be interesting to see how the sequel performs at the box office and whether it can match the performance of the OG film.
