Alia Ranbir Love And War Resembles Hollywood War Lovestory

Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal's upcoming film, Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Love & War, is set against a war backdrop and follows a dramatic love triangle between two army officers. The film, which is being shot in Mumbai, is scheduled to release on March 20, 2026. Interestingly, reports suggest that Love & War might draw inspiration from the Ben Affleck-Kate Beckinsale-Josh Hartnett film Pearl Harbor, as well as the classic Bollywood film Sangam. Both films revolve around a love triangle set against the backdrop of war.

The film's storyline is expected to delve into the challenges of a complex love triangle, with Kapoor and Kaushal essaying strong-willed army men in a "tug-of-war" for their love interest, Bhatt. When asked about the film's inspiration, Kaushal chose to remain tight-lipped, stating that he would let the director comment on the matter. Bhansali, known for his grandeur storytelling, has already shot some confrontation scenes between the leading men and is reportedly "mighty impressed with the output."

Bhansali's unique cinematic vision is expected to do justice to this love story set against the backdrop of war. The film's cast and crew share a strong camaraderie, with Bhatt, Kapoor, and Kaushal recently reuniting to celebrate Bhansali's birthday. With its complex storyline and Bhansali's grandeur storytelling, Love & War is expected to be a visual treat for audiences.

As the film's release date approaches, fans are eagerly waiting to see how Bhansali brings this complex love story to life. With its talented cast and crew, Love & War is expected to be one of the most anticipated films of 2026.
