Amidst swirling rumors of a February wedding, actress Rashmika Mandanna has wrapped up filming for Cocktail 2, a highly anticipated romantic-comedy also starring Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon. Directed by Homi Adajania and produced by Dinesh Vijan under Maddock Films, the film is considered a spiritual sequel to the 2012 film Cocktail.
Adajania announced the completion of filming on January 30, 2026, sharing a celebratory post on social media featuring the cast and crew. The post quickly garnered attention from fans eager for more details about the project. Kriti Sanon playfully commented on Adajania's post, and the production banner, Maddock Films, also shared pictures from the wrap party on Instagram. The team celebrated by cutting a cake. Cocktail 2 is penned by Luv Ranjan. While the official release date is yet to be announced, reports suggest a potential release in September or the end of 2026.
Meanwhile, speculation surrounding Mandanna's rumored wedding with actor Vijay Deverakonda continues to intensify. Reports suggest a February 26, 2026, wedding at a palace in Udaipur, with an intimate ceremony planned for close family and friends. The couple reportedly got engaged in a private ceremony in October 2025. However, Mandanna has addressed the rumors, neither confirming nor denying them, and expressed her desire to keep her personal life private, stating that she will share information "when it's to be spoken about".
Mandanna and Deverakonda have been linked since they starred together in Geetha Govindam (2018) and Dear Comrade (2019). Adding to the excitement, the pair are set to reunite on screen in Ranabaali, an action drama directed by Rahul Sankrityan, scheduled for release on September 11, 2026. The film is set in the 19th century and draws inspiration from real events between 1854 and 1878, highlighting lesser-known historical incidents.
Besides Cocktail 2 and Ranabaali, Rashmika Mandanna has several other projects in the pipeline, including Mysaa, The Girlfriend, Thamma, Kuberaa, and Pushpa 3: The Rampage. Vijay Deverakonda also has Rowdy Janardhana slated for release in 2026, in addition to Ranabaali.
As fans eagerly await official announcements regarding both her personal and professional life, Rashmika Mandanna remains one of the most sought-after actresses in Indian cinema.
