Mahesh Babu Shooting Stoped by Rajinikanth

The recently released film “Cocktail 2” continues to make noise at the box office with its strong opening weekend performance. On its first Sunday, the film registered a solid ₹16+ crore nett collection in India. However, the momentum slowed down on Monday, with collections dropping sharply to around ₹6 crore nett. Despite the weekday dip, the film has managed to accumulate a total of approximately ₹85 crore so far.

A major highlight driving the film’s buzz has been actress Kriti Sanon, whose glamorous appearances and bikini sequences have gone viral on social media, drawing significant attention from audiences and boosting the film’s visibility.

At the same time, discussions have also emerged around the other lead actress Rashmika Mandanna, who plays the character Diya Reddy. While Rashmika also appears in stylish and glamorous looks, her role is said to be relatively simple, with limited scope for performance-heavy emotional scenes.

This has led to debate among fans, with many suggesting that Bollywood is not fully utilizing Rashmika Mandanna’s acting potential compared to her Telugu films, where she has delivered more impactful and performance-driven roles. Her strong screen presence in films like Pushpa and The Girlfriend is often cited as evidence of her versatility.

Overall, while Cocktail 2 is enjoying commercial traction and online buzz, audience conversations are now equally focused on how effectively its lead actresses have been showcased on screen.
