As a seasoned observer of Bollywood’s dynamic landscape, I can confidently say that Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love and War is shaping up to be one of the most eagerly awaited films in recent memory. With a powerhouse cast led by Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal, this film promises to deliver a cinematic experience that will captivate audiences worldwide.
Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s eagerly awaited project titled Love and War has been creating quite a stir before its upcoming shoot. Boasting an impressive ensemble of Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal, the movie is slated to commence filming on October 24th as per latest updates. Earlier, TopMob had exclusively disclosed that the filming will start next month.
According to a industry insider, Sanjay Leela Bhansali plans to commence shooting for Love and War in the upcoming month. Anticipation for this production has been escalating, especially since Heeramandi, thanks to its captivating name and impressive cast consisting of Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal. The filming is set to kick off on October 24, with the source adding that this will signify the start of the initial shooting phase.
Previously, sources familiar with the project shared that Sanjay Leela Bhansali intends to independently produce Love and War without any involvement from film studios. This method of production mirrors that of studios such as YRF and Red Chillies. The source also mentioned that prior to filming even starting, Bhansali has secured a substantial post-cinema deal with Netflix and a near-record music contract with Saregama.
According to the report, the initial deal with Netflix is valued at approximately Rs 130 crore, and could potentially earn more if the film performs well at the box office. Moreover, Sanjay Leela Bhansali has signed a music contract worth Rs 35 crore with Saregama, and negotiations are ongoing for a satellite rights deal with a leading network, said to be around Rs 50 crore according to the source.
Love And War will hit theaters on March 20, 2026, coinciding with significant celebrations such as Ramzan, Ram Navami, and Gudi Padwa. This strategic timing could significantly enhance its earnings at the box office. Originally slated for a Christmas 2025 release, the film’s schedule has been adjusted.
In “Love And War”, Sanjay Leela Bhansali teams up with Vicky Kaushal for the first time, whereas he has previously partnered with Alia Bhatt on “Gangubai Kathiawadi” and with Ranbir Kapoor in his initial film “Saawariya”. Notably, this project will also bring Vicky Kaushal together again with Ranbir Kapoor following their hit collaboration in the 2018 biopic “Sanju”, and with Alia Bhatt, who he acted alongside in “Raazi” that same year.
Recently, Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s latest directorial project was the popular Netflix series Heeramandi. This captivating show boasted a talented ensemble cast consisting of Manisha Koirala, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditi Rao Hydari, Richa Chadha, Sharmin Segal, Sanjeeda Shaikh, Taha Shah Badussha, Adhyayan Suman, Shekhar Suman, and Fardeen Khan.
