Watch: Kriti Sanon Sets The Gym On Fire In Intense New Workout Videos Ahead Of ‘Cocktail 2’ Release
Kriti Sanon powered through an intense gym session in viral workout videos that surfaced online.
When it comes to dedication and discipline, Bollywood actress Kriti Sanon never fails to inspire her fans. The talented actress has once again proven that looking fabulous on the big screen takes some serious sweat equity off-screen. Popular fitness and self-improvement coach Karan Sawhney recently took to Instagram to drop a series of intense workout videos featuring the actress, captioning the post "Summer Ready". The post kicked off with the ultimate gym-buddy mirror selfie. Kriti looked effortlessly chic in a matching mustard-yellow co-ord set featuring a relaxed t-shirt and fitted biker shorts, paired with black running shoes.

Karan stood right beside her, holding the camera, dressed in a casual white athletic tee and navy blue shorts, capturing their hard-earned post-workout glow. This selfie was followed by a series of workout videos.
Check out Kriti Sanon’s power-packed gym videos here:
In the first video clip, Kriti was seen engaged in a gruelling core-strengthening routine – partner leg raises. Lying flat on her back on the gym floor, she anchored herself by holding onto Karan's ankles. As she raised her legs straight up, Karan actively threw them back down towards the floor. Kriti’s objective was to resist the downward force and stop her heels from hitting the mat. This move demands massive lower abdominal strength and absolute control, and the actress nailed every single rep without breaking form.

Moving on to upper body conditioning, the second video showed Kriti Sanon performing bent-over dumbbell rows. Maintaining a flawless hip hinge with a perfectly flat back and a slight bend in her knees, the actress pulled a pair of heavy dumbbells up towards her waist. This compound movement was exceptional for sculpting the lats, rhomboids, and lower back, proving that Kriti is prioritizing real, functional strength.
The third clip gave fans another glimpse into her back-day routine, this time utilizing the seated cable row machine. Sitting with her back perfectly straight and core engaged, Kriti pulled the V-handle attachment directly to her midsection, squeezing her shoulder blades together at the peak of the contraction. This specific exercise is key for maintaining the impeccable posture and poised silhouette.
Rounding out the back-focused session, the final video featured Kriti Sanon mastering the lat pulldown machine. Taking a wide overhand grip on the bar, she smoothly pulled the weight down towards her upper chest in a deeply controlled motion. The control she demonstrated on the upward eccentric phase of the lift highlighted her stamina and extensive experience in the weight room.
What really caught the attention of eagle-eyed fans was the hashtag Karan Sawhney used: #cocktail2. This subtly confirmed that Kriti's rigorous physical preparation was tied to her highly anticipated upcoming film.
Directed by Homi Adajania, ‘Cocktail 2’ is slated to hit theatres on June 19, 2026. The film is generating massive buzz as a franchise follow-up to the 2012 blockbuster hit that originally starred Saif Ali Khan, Deepika Padukone, and Diana Penty. This time around, the fresh and vibrant cast features Shahid Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna alongside Kriti, promising a modern exploration of love, friendship, and emotional entanglements.
With music composed by Pritam – including the recently teased tracks ‘Mashooqa’ and ‘Tujhko’ – the hype is real. Judging by her undeniable dedication in the gym, Kriti Sanon is clearly bringing her absolute A-game to the big screen this summer!
