Rashmika’s Most Daring Bold Role Yet in Upcoming Film?

The filming of Cocktail 2 has now officially wrapped up, and the movie is already getting a lot of attention for several reasons. The film is directed by Homi Adajania and stars Shahid Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna, and Kriti Sanon in the main roles.

According to reports from Bollywood media, Rashmika and Kriti are believed to be playing a lesbian couple in the movie.

 Although the makers haven't officially confirmed this yet, the idea has created a lot of interest among fans and people in the industry.

If this is true, the story could represent a big and forward-thinking change in mainstream Hindi cinema, especially for Rashmika, who is taking on a role like this for the first time.

The first Cocktail was famous for its bold story, focusing on one man and his two close female friends, and it explored modern relationships and emotional issues.

 However, the second movie seems to be even bolder with its unusual theme.

This news has especially excited Rashmika's fans, as she hasn't taken on such a role before and is said to be getting ready for marriage soon.

 If the rumors are correct, Cocktail 2 might become one of the most discussed movies when it comes out. The exact release date hasn't been announced yet.

‘A’ Hurdle For Dhurandhar 2 and Toxic?

This year's summer will start off with a big event for Indian cinema as Dhurandhar 2 and Toxic will compete at the box office on March 19th.

 Trade experts are really excited about this big showdown.

Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar 2 is hoping to take advantage of the huge success of the first movie.

 On the other hand, Toxic is riding on Yash's massive popularity after the huge success of KGF 2.

What's interesting is that both movies share a common point that might affect how well they do at the box office, depending on how audiences react once they are shown.

Dhurandhar had a lot of strong action and violent scenes, and the sequel is expected to have a similar amount of intense and bloody scenes because of the excitement and hype among moviegoers.

Now, the makers of Toxic have also given some clues through their latest teaser.

 The Yash starrer is expected to be a tough and raw story with explicit scenes and lots of bloody action sequences.

So, it's clear that both Dhurandhar 2 and Toxic will be given an A certificate without any doubt.

 Usually, movies with an A rating have a hard time attracting family audiences and this could be a problem even if they get good reviews and positive word of mouth.

It will be interesting to see if the decision to go with full-length, violent scripts works out and if both films can do well at the box office despite the A certificate.

Ess Kay Gee Announces Thriller With Anupama

The film will be directed by Shaan and produced by Shivin Narang, Prerna Arora, and Kiran Ballapalli, in association with a leading studio.

It's an intense psychological thriller, and it marks the big-screen reunion of Anupama Parmeshwaran and Shaan, following the huge success of their popular short film.

Anupama x RJ Shaan – a collaboration that now moves from digital success to theatrical impact.

 Shooting starts in May 2026. The title will be shared soon.

The announcement happens on Anupama Parmeshwaran's birthday, as the makers send their warm wishes and introduce a powerful cinematic journey.

Ess Kay Gee Entertainment recently released Jatadhara, adding to their growing list of productions.

Prerna Arora, a producer who has won a National Award, is known for films like Rustom, Toilet: Ek Prem Katha, Pad Man, and Pari.

 She also recently released Jatadhara.

Anupama Parmeshwaran continues to be widely recognized across India with successful films like Premam, Karthikeya 2, and Rakshasudu.

 This further cements her status as one of the most sought-after actresses in South Indian cinema today. She is also winning hearts in Telugu, Tamil, and Malayalam cinema.

As a producer, I only work on films I truly believe in.

 This film has strong storytelling, a clear vision from director Shaan, and a powerful performance by Anupama. The team of Anupama and Shaan reunites after the success of their short film Freedom at Midnight.

Along with producers Prerna and Kiran as partners, we are committed to making meaningful cinema.
