10 years of cocktail
Cocktail movie based on three characters Gautam (Saif Ali Khan), Meera (Diana Penty) and Veronica (Deepika Padukone) which is a love triangle.
The story goes starts with Gautam who is an incorrigible flirt, and runs after every girl he sees. Meera is a pretty girl who believes in desi values and attire, and comes to London from Delhi for a fresh start. Veronica is the spoilt bombshell who loves partying and drinking.
Though different from each other, these three are perfect friends staying under one roof until friendship becomes confusing, and love becomes complicated.
