Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, and Rashmika Mandanna are gearing up to shoot the Delhi leg of "Cocktail 2," the sequel to the 2012 hit film "Cocktail". Directed by Homi Adajania, who also directed the original, the film has already completed a shooting schedule across various European locations, including Sicily, Italy.

The Delhi shoot is scheduled to take place from November 11 to November 20, with outdoor locations in Chhatarpur, Gurugram, and other parts of South Delhi serving as the backdrop for key scenes.

Given Delhi's current air quality index (AQI) exceeding 300, the production team is taking extra precautions to ensure the safety and well-being of the cast and crew. Measures being implemented include the use of air purifiers in vanity vans and indoor areas, as well as advising crew members to wear masks during shoots. Additionally, water sprinklers will be used on set daily before shoots and, if needed, between takes to maintain a safer environment.

"Cocktail 2" marks Shahid Kapoor's first on-screen pairing with Rashmika Mandanna. It also reunites Shahid and Kriti after their previous collaboration. Photos from the film's Sicily schedule earlier this year generated considerable buzz on social media, offering fans a glimpse into the movie's making.

Rashmika Mandanna shared her positive experience working with her co-stars, stating, "I love Kriti and Shahid. I feel like we're the best gang together. Homi sir (Homi Adajania), whom we're working with, is also a joy to collaborate with. It's such a pleasure to work with all of them. I'm very excited to go back to Delhi to start shooting again".

"Cocktail 2" is produced by Dinesh Vijan's production house and is highly anticipated. With its star-studded cast, scenic locations, and Homi Adajania's directorial style, the film is shaping up to be one of the most awaited releases.
