The highly regarded filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali announced his next film, Love & War, on January 24. It is referred to as an epic drama. The crowd was excited by the announcement, particularly because of the outstanding cast, which included Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal.

A while back, Alia Bhatt also shared the poster on her Instagram account. The actress has since reshared the post on Instagram stories. That read, “We bring you Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Epic Saga Love & War. See you at the movies! Christmas 2025.” The signatures of the trio were also included.

The release date for Love & War, the next movie starring Vicky Kaushal, Ranbir Kapoor, and Alia Bhatt, was announced. The film is slated to open in theatres on Christmas 2025.

It is noteworthy to highlight that the project, which is funded by Bhansali Productions, is aiming for a Christmas release in 2025. James Cameron’s Avatar 3, a Hollywood epic, will be a formidable competitor.

“It’s a great story that got all three stalwarts excited. It’s a casting coup pulled off by SLB in such a short span, and that’s purely based on the power of his screenplay. Rarely are 4 of the top names from the fraternity excited by the same subject, and it has happened this time with SLB, Ranbir, Alia, and Vicky signing on the project,” the insider revealed.
