Mumbai, May 26

The 2012 romantic drama 'Cocktail,' directed by Homi Adajania, is all set to return to theatres after nearly thirteen years of its original release.

'Cocktail' is the latest Bollywood film to join the trend of theatrical re-releases, after titles like 'Andaz Apna Apna.'

The film, best known for its modern take on love, friendship, and heartbreak, starred actors Saif Ali Khan, Deepika Padukone, and Diana Penty in lead roles.

It will hit the big screen again on May 30.

The news was shared by PVR Cinemas as it shared a poster of the film along with a caption that read: "The iconic trio is back! Experience the unforgettable journey of 'Cocktail' once again with our Curated Shows. Cocktail re-releasing at PVR INOX on May 30!"

Cocktail follows the story of Meera (played by Diana Penty), a simple girl left alone in a new city, who finds comfort and support in her free-spirited friend Veronica (Deepika Padukone). Things get complicated when Veronica's boyfriend Gautam (Saif Ali Khan) starts falling for Meera.

The movie also featured Boman Irani, Dimple Kapadia, and Randeep Hooda in important roles. It was Diana Penty's Bollywood debut.

The film gained popularity not just for its story but also for its catchy music. Songs like "Tumhi Ho Bandhu," "Daaru Desi," "Second-Hand Jawaani," and "Yaariyan" became major hits, especially among young listeners. The beautiful filming locations in the UK and South Africa also added charm to the movie.

Wow! Cocktail was such a fresh take on modern relationships when it released. Deepika's Veronica was iconic! 🔥 But honestly, I don't know if it has the same recall value as Andaz Apna Apna for a re-release. Still, the music alone makes it worth watching on big screen again!

As someone who watched this in college, I'm so excited! The fashion, the songs, the London vibes - it was our generation's Dil Chahta Hai. But I hope theaters don't charge full ticket price for old movies. ₹100-150 would be fair na?

The music album was fire no doubt, but the story didn't age well IMHO. The whole "good girl vs wild girl" trope feels problematic now. Still, Diana Penty's debut was memorable - wish she did more films after this.

Yaariyan song still gives me goosebumps! ❤️ Perfect movie for a girls' night out at the cinema. But Bollywood should focus on new content instead of milking old hits. Kuch naya nahi hai kya?

This was peak Saif Ali Khan - charming yet flawed. His chemistry with both actresses was electric. But Dimple Kapadia stole every scene she was in! "Khaana khake jaana" 😂

Honestly, the film's treatment of Veronica's character was unfair in the end. She was the most interesting one but got reduced to a plot device. Still, can't deny it was entertaining! Daaru Desi on big speakers will be epic 🎶
