Acclaimed filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s upcoming magnum opus Love & War is steadily shaping up as one of the most anticipated films of 2026. Featuring Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal in lead roles, the film is pitched as an 'epic love story' set amid the turbulence of war.

While the production has been tightly guarded, new updates reveal that Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal are preparing for a 'high-octane fight sequence' in Italy.

Ranbir and Vicky Prepping To Lock Horns!

An exclusive report by Times of India quoted a close source as saying, “Vicky Kaushal and Ranbir Kapoor have been undergoing intense prep for a high-octane fight sequence in Love & War.”

Further, the source revealed, “SLB is planning a massive action scene between the two stars, for which an entire street in Sicily will be cordoned off. It marks Bhansali’s return to international filming after Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, and it promises to be one of the most ambitious sequences in the film.”

Shades of Grey in Ranbir’s Character

Ranbir Kapoor’s role in Love & War is said to be a 'twisted grey' character, giving the actor room for one of his most layered portrayals yet. The war-torn backdrop heightens the themes of passion, rivalry, and sacrifice- elements that Bhansali has long been celebrated for weaving into his grand cinematic worlds.

A Modern Take on Sangam

Reportedly, the narrative revolves around a love triangle between two army officers, played by Ranbir and Vicky, with Alia Bhatt as the connecting thread. Inspired by the themes of the 1964 classic Sangam, Bhansali reimagines the story of friendship, love, and heartbreak with a contemporary sensibility.

Latest Developments: Italy Schedule, Release Date

According to media reports, Sanjay Leela Bhansali will shoot the climax of Love & War in Sicily, Italy, through an extensive month-long schedule in October. The sequences will feature Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal, including a visually grand song filmed against the region’s picturesque landscapes. 

Alongside this, the makers have officially locked the release date for March 20, 2026, positioning the film to maximise its festive appeal.
