Rashmika Mandanna and Shahid Kapoor recently wrapped up shooting for Homi Adajania’s Cocktail 2. While the sequel is all set to release this year, rumours are rife that the actors are gearing up for yet another film, which will be directed by Badhaai Ho director Anil Sharma. The film promises a fresh, emotional and layered take on modern romance.
According to an exclusive report on Variety India, “Shahid and Rashmika are believed to have struck a great professional rapport during the filming of Cocktail 2 and readily agreed to work together again when approached for this latest project. This untitled film promises a refreshing blend of romance and comedy, with their on-screen dynamic expected to be more personal, emotional and layered compared to the breezy, modern relationships explored in Homi Adajania’s Cocktail 2.” The film will be produced by Sunir Kheterpal under The Vermilion World banner in association with Jio Studios.
