Shahid Kapoor has officially announced the release date of the first song from Cocktail 2. Titled Jab Talak, the track is all set to drop on April 8, giving fans their first musical glimpse into the much-awaited romantic drama. Shahid shared the update on social media on Wednesday, building more excitement around the film, which also stars Kriti Sanon and Rashmika Mandanna in key roles.

Directed by Homi Adajania, Cocktail 2 comes nearly 14 years after the release of Cocktail in 2012, which featured Saif Ali Khan, Deepika Padukone and Diana Penty. While the new film is not a direct sequel, it is being described as a spiritual follow-up.

Speaking earlier about the film, Kriti Sanon had shared that it carries a similar energy to the original. She said, "The tone and atmosphere are in a comparable realm, yet the narrative and characters are entirely distinct. There’s no direct connection to Cocktail aside from the fact that it encompasses a mix a cocktail of emotions, camaraderie, drama, music, and stunning locations."

She had also called her role in the film the “hottest” character she has played so far.

The film also marks Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon’s reunion after Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya. It will also be the first time Shahid shares screen space with Rashmika Mandanna. The film further marks Rashmika’s first collaboration with Kriti and Homi Adajania, while also bringing together Homi Adajania and Luv Ranjan for the first time.
