The urban rom-com genre is officially back, and it’s looking shinier than ever with Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, and Rashmika Mandanna taking charge! Ever since Maddock Movies announced Cocktail 2, everyone has been excited and is waiting for the film to establish some latest milestones for the romantic comedy genre! Helmed by Homi Adajania, the film carries all the proper ingredients to set the box office on fire on its opening day.
Armed with a sizzling soundtrack by Pritam and an intriguing ‘A’ certificate from the censor board, the movie is all set for a glamorous start on the ticket windows on June 19. Actually, if the advance booking momentum is any indication, it’s squarely eyeing three massive opening day records on its Day 1!
Cocktail Box Office Day 1 Records
Because the pandemic, the glamorous romantic-comedy genre has found it tough to hit good numbers on Day 1, with audiences becoming highly selective. Currently, the record for the most important post-pandemic rom-com opener is held by Tu Jhoothi Fundamental Makkaar.
Biggest Rom-Com Opening Post-COVID
Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor’s film stands as the most important rom-com opener post-COVID with a net collection of 15.73 crore on the box office in India on day 1. Most likely, Shahid Kapoor‘s biggie might surpass this number!
Biggest Romantic Opening Of 2026
The largest romantic opening for 2026 is by Shahid Kapoor’s romantic motion drama O Romeo, which earned 9.01 crore on the box office. Cocktail 2, capitalizing heavily on the combined fanbases of Kriti Sanon and national crush Rashmika Mandanna, is all set to say the #1 spot!
