Sanjay Leela Bhansali Wraps Shooting for 'Love & War' Starring Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal

Renowned Indian filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali has officially concluded the principal photography for his highly anticipated epic drama, 'Love & War,' starring Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal. The production team and lead cast wrapped up the shooting schedules following an emotional farewell ceremony with the entire crew in Mumbai, marking a major milestone for one of the most talked-about projects in modern Indian cinema. With filming complete, the production team is now transitioning into an extensive post-production phase, which will involve heavy visual editing, sound design, and background scoring. 'Love & War' stands out as a grand romantic war drama that reunites Ranbir Kapoor with Bhansali nineteen years after his acting debut in 'Saawariya' (2007). It also marks the director's second collaboration with Alia Bhatt after their critically acclaimed 2022 period drama 'Gangubai Kathiawadi,' and his very first project featuring Vicky Kaushal. First announced in early 2024, the film experienced multiple schedule shifts due to intricate set designs, grand scale requirements, and demanding production parameters. The film is slated for a worldwide theatrical premiere on January 21, 2027, strategically targeting the extended Republic Day holiday weekend. Designed as a multi-lingual pan-India release, it will be distributed across multiple languages including Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu. Entertainment industry analysts anticipate that 'Love & War' will serve as a high-stakes cinematic event, drawing significant audience interest due to its stellar ensemble cast, opulent visual framing, and intense emotional narrative style that has defined Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s filmography over the decades.
