Love & War follows a romantic triangle involving three characters whose lives are shaped by friendship, love and the circumstances of war. Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal play Indian Air Force officers and friends in the film. The story places their personal relationships against the larger events of the 1971 conflict between India and Pakistan, bringing together romance and the realities of military life.
The film also marks the reunion of Ranbir Kapoor and Sanjay Leela Bhansali after Saawariya, which released in 2007 and marked Ranbir’s acting debut. Their collaboration on Love & War brings the actor back to the filmmaker’s style of storytelling, known for its detailed visuals and emotional themes.
Ranbir Kapoor is also working on Ramayana, making Love & War another major project on his current schedule. The actor’s involvement in both films has led to discussions about the different roles and settings he is taking on.
With its release date set for January 21, 2027, Love & War is expected to explore how love, friendship and duty intersect during a time of conflict. The new posters provide an early look at the film’s visual approach, while details about the characters and the larger story remain limited.
