More About ‘Love & War’
The promotional campaign kicked off with an intense first-look poster featuring Ranbir Kapoor in a vintage, rugged avatar, seated in a classic vehicle with a bruised, bloodied arm that hints at high-octane drama. The visual treatment underscores Bhansali’s signature grand scale while introducing a gritty edge to the romantic war narrative.
Reportedly set against the backdrop of an Indian military conflict, the story is believed to explore a complex love triangle involving two armed forces officers and the female lead. Love & War marks an important career reunion for its team: it brings Ranbir Kapoor back with Sanjay Leela Bhansali nearly two decades after his debut in Saawariya (2007), reunites Alia Bhatt with the director after Gangubai Kathiawadi (2022), and serves as Vicky Kaushal’s first collaboration with the director.
