Both Vicky and Kriti have delivered a host of brilliant performances, and having previously been conferred with National Awards is testimony to that. They are not just acting powerhouses, but also major box office draws. Chhaava emerged as the highest grossing Indian film in Hindi at the time of its release, and ended up being the second highest grossing Hindi film of the year, only behind Dhurandhar. As for Tere Ishk Mein, the intense romantic-drama stormed into the Rs. 100 crore club at the Indian box office and secured the very rare ‘clean hit’ tag in a year with less than 6 of them from Bollywood.
After a blockbuster 2025, Vicky Kaushal gears up for his biggest film yet, Love And War, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. The film co-stars Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, and is likely targeting an early 2027 release. Kriti Sanon on the other hand has a big ticket release in the form of Cocktail 2 up for release on 19th June, 2026. The Homi Adajania directorial co-stars Shahid Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna, and it is clearly one of the year’s most awaited movies. There should be absolutely no doubt that both Vicky and Kriti will continue getting ample love from their loyal audience base.
