BY SACNILK
Mumbai, May 25 - Most movie love stories are simple. Boy meets girl, they fall in love, and they live happily ever after. Bollywood romantic comedies usually follow this sweet rule. But sometimes, a twist arrives, and that's where things get messed up, bringing heartbreak and pain of not getting the love character wanted. Maddock Films' upcoming romantic comedy Cocktail 2 is one of the most-anticipated films. Starring Shahid Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna, and Kriti Sanon, it is reportedly a twisted love story unlike the first film, where two girls fought over one guy. The movie is scheduled to release on June 19 amid growing anticipation. Here are five twisted love triangle stories to watch before Cocktail 2. 1.
