Almost a week after its release, ‘Cocktail 2’ continues to do well at the box office, crossing the Rs 100 crore mark worldwide within six days. However, despite its commercial success, the film received a mixed response from audiences and critics. The latest to express his opinion is the author and columnist Shobhaa De:who didn’t hold back while sharing his review of the movie starring: Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon and: Rashmika Mandanna. Shobhaa posted a video after watching the film and compared it unfavorably to its predecessor. “Just went out to see Cocktail 2. Well, Cocktail 1 no. Woh Cocktail kya tha, yeh kya hai. I feel like I need five negronis to get over it,” he said.The author continues to criticize the storyline, although he has praise for certain aspects of the film. He added, “Iska na ulo na koog, kuch bhi nahi hai. The story is stupid. Shahid, you need a new haircut, although you are the best part of the film. But the star by far is Sicily — I wish there was more to Sicily. Rashmika, I am so sorry but only Hindi films are not for you. Kriti, you look very good, in fact you have a fabul.“Shobhaa even questioned the film’s writing and themes, expressing frustration with the narrative and character dynamics.“But the story, could it be a little more nuanced and meaningful? Two women fighting because of Shahid, who then gives a lecture. And then the best line comes from Shahid, who says, ‘Love is something you enjoy for a few days, there is nothing like love.’ It’s full of fakes. Clichés of the worst kind. Great jokes every now and then. But don’t even try to compare it to Cocktail, and five negronis await, this is my capsule review.“ But, it is Saif Ali KhanSaba Ali Pataudi’s sister’s comment also caught attention. Saif was a part of the first ‘Cocktail’ with Deepika Padukone and Diana Penty. Saba wrote, “I need my own kinda binge 😉 but IGET u! U missed the part .. forget fighting over him.. how can his feelings be taken so lightly or disregarded?;) 1 loved K. She’s nailed her part! R was good but the south cinema is much better….Shahid did his part. I liked the performances locations n music!
