Reports regarding the release date of Sanjay Leela Bhansali's highly anticipated film, 'Love And War', starring Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal, are currently conflicting. Pinkvilla reported exclusively that the film, initially expected in 2026, has been pushed to 2027, with principal photography aiming to wrap by June 2026. This alleged delay is attributed to the grand scale of the project, including extensive aerial action sequences requiring significant visual effects (VFX) work, which demands a meticulous post-production timeline. Additionally, Ranbir Kapoor's other major film, 'Ramayana: Part One', slated for a November 2026 release, is cited as a reason to provide a healthy gap between his tentpole ventures. Industry insiders reportedly suggest a January (Republic Day) or February (Valentine's Day) 2027 release is being considered. However, several other credible sources have directly contradicted Pinkvilla's report, asserting that 'Love And War' is very much on schedule for a 2026 release. These reports indicate that Sanjay Leela Bhansali has already completed shooting major sequences, including a song, and that only minor portions remain to be filmed. They suggest that post-production, including VFX work, is progressing simultaneously to adhere to the original 2026 timeline. While the core cast remains verified, the definitive release year remains a point of contention among news outlets, making official confirmation from the filmmakers crucial to resolve the ongoing speculation.
