Kriti Sanon is gearing up for her role in Cocktail 2, a highly anticipated sequel to the beloved 2012 film. The movie is set to hit theaters on June 19, 2026, and Sanon has committed to a rigorous diet and workout routine to prepare for her character.
In a recent interview, Sanon revealed that this is the only time she has adhered to such a strict regimen, describing her diet as a “calorie-deficient diet”. She stated, “Honestly, during Cocktail, it was the only time when I was on a very strict diet and a consistent workout routine.” This dedication highlights her commitment to delivering a performance that resonates with audiences.
The film promises to explore modern relationships amidst emotional turmoil, a theme that resonates with many in today’s fast-paced world. Sanon expressed her excitement about the project, noting that after her emotionally draining performance in Tere Ishk Mein, she felt the need for something lighter and more fun. “Tere Ishk Mein was so emotionally draining, it had completely emptied me emotionally. I felt I needed something light and fun, and that’s when Cocktail came my way,” she shared.
Cocktail 2 will introduce new characters who face contemporary challenges while revisiting timeless themes of love, friendship, and heartbreak. This blend of old and new is expected to attract both fans of the original film and a new generation of viewers.
Sanon is enthusiastic about her character, stating, “I think I’m looking very different from what I’ve ever looked and it’s probably the hottest character that I’ve done so far.” Her transformation is not just physical; it reflects her growth as an actress willing to take on diverse roles.
As the release date approaches, anticipation builds around the film’s reception. The original Cocktail was a cult classic, and expectations are high for its sequel. Observers are eager to see how the film will balance nostalgia with fresh narratives.
With the film’s release still months away, details remain unconfirmed about additional cast members and plot specifics. However, one thing is certain: Kriti Sanon is ready to shine in this new chapter of her career, and fans are excited to see what she brings to the screen.
