The spiritual sequel to the 2012 hit Cocktail has arrived in theatres, starring Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, and Rashmika Mandanna.

Directed by Homi Adajania, Cocktail 2 has been described as a spiritual sequel with new characters and a new story, connected to the first part with its theme of messy relationships.

The film tells the story of a couple on holiday in Sicily, who bump into her friend, leading to chaos after an insecure Diya pushes Ally to flirt with her boyfriend.

Advance bookings for the film opened this week, selling over 1.6 lakh tickets for the first day alone in India.

However, the first reactions to the film are mixed, with some viewers praising the cinematography and music, but criticising the plot and the performances.
