Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s film ‘Love and War’, starring Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal in the lead roles, has been the topic of discussion ever since its announcement. On Wednesday, Vicky Kaushal was spotted outside Sanjay Leela Bhasali’s office in Mumbai. The makers have reportedly begun the prep for the film, and Ranbir and Alia have been meeting the director very often lately. Vicky Kaushal’s latest meeting hints that the makers have started the prep.
Vicky Kaushal kept it casual for the meeting. He wore a black sweatshirt with a hoodie teamed up with track pants. He added sunglasses and a cap to complete his look. Interestingly, Vicky Kaushal was spotted in a trimmed short beard look with a moustache on Wednesday. His look was similar to his avatar from ‘Raazi’. It is unclear whether the actor will be sporting a look similar to ‘Raazi’ in the upcoming SLB film.
Multiple reports hint that the film will go on floors in November or early December. The makers had earlier planned to commence shooting in September, however, they seemed to have pushed it further, because of the rain.
‘Love and War’ marks Ranbir Kapoor’s reunion with Sanjay Leela Bhansali after the 2007 release ‘Saawariya’. Alia Bhatt collaborated earlier with the veteran for ‘Gangubai Kathiawadi (2022). The upcoming film will mark Vicky Kaushal’s first collaboration with the director. The film was officially announced in January 2024. “We Bring You Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Epic Saga ‘Love & War.’ See You At The Movies Christmas 2025,” the makers said, launching the poster.
