Cocktail 2 Trailer Drops: Dinesh Vijan and Homi Adajania Address Rumors About Kriti Sanon and Rashmika Mandanna’s Roles
Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, Rashmika Mandanna, and the film’s producers, Dinesh Vijan, Luv Ranjan, and Ankur Garg, along with director Homi Adajania and music director Pritam Chakraborty, gathered at a restobar in Mumbai for the much-anticipated trailer launch of “Cocktail 2.” However, the event faced challenges as the chaotic environment and poor sound system made it difficult for media representatives to engage with the talent on stage. Despite these setbacks, the cast and crew delivered entertaining and candid remarks that kept the atmosphere lively.
Speculations About the Film’s Plot
For months, rumors have circulated that Kriti Sanon and Rashmika Mandanna portray a lesbian couple in “Cocktail 2.” Addressing these speculations, producer Dinesh Vijan turned to Rashmika, asking, “I want Rashmika to explain. There are a lot of rumours that you and Kriti are a couple in the film. Do you want to clear that right now?”
Before Rashmika could respond, Kriti chimed in, saying, “I think the rumours are coming from one place only,” subtly pointing to Shahid. The actor, taken aback, replied, “I didn’t say anything, guys! Why would I do that? Kahan se aa rahe hai yeh rumours? Kaun faila raha hai?”
Kriti then shared her first impression of Rashmika, recalling, “We first met when we worked out together in the same studio. I literally died because she works out like a beast (laughs)! I really didn’t know that.” Rashmika added, “There was no effort and we instantly bonded. It was just easy.”
Chemistry and Friendship
Shahid interjected, asking, “Do you think that’s the reason people think that it’s a lesbian love story? Because both of you have a natural chemistry?” Kriti responded thoughtfully, “It’s really sad. When two guys are thick friends, it is termed as ‘bromance’ but when it comes to girl, people don’t want to believe that they can be friends. Ya toh inme rivalry hai ya fir dono mein kuch aur chal raha hai.”
Director Homi Adajania shed light on the origin of the rumors, stating, “This is where the rumour came from. We were all sitting together on the sets. They get very cuddly with each other because they are friends. We just hypothetically thought that what if the story was about them, with Shahid being the third wheel? I just said ‘I don’t mind making a film like that.’”
Clarifying the Love Stories
Dinesh Vijan then interjected to clarify the film’s narrative, saying, “Guys, we were supposed to clear this out! As you see in the trailer, there are two love stories. Purana love, naya love aur yeh ‘luv’ (pointing at Luv Ranjan)! Aur kisi ka love nahin hai picture mein!”
“Cocktail 2” is set to hit cinemas on June 19.
