Ranbir Kapoor channels ‘Animal’ in bloodied ‘Love & War’ first look

Dubai: Ranbir Kapoor's intense first look from Sanjay Leela Bhansali's highly-anticipated period drama 'Love & War' has generated excitement among fans. In the striking new poster, the actor is depicted as bruised and bloodied while driving a vintage car. He is seen calmly gripping the steering wheel with a battered hand, wearing a white T-shirt, glasses and sporting a short buzz cut.

Co-star Vicky Kaushal shared the poster on Instagram, teasing the film's release date of January 21, 2027. Alia Bhatt, who also stars in the film, posted the image on her social media accounts. 'Love & War' is a period romantic war drama that reunites Kapoor, Bhatt and Kaushal after their previous collaboration in Bhansali's 2007 film 'Saawariya'.

The film's story has been kept under wraps but reportedly features Indian Air Force officers whose lives intersect with Bhatt's character. The film, penned by Bhansali and Ila Bedi Dutta, also stars Supriya Pathak. Shooting for the movie wrapped up in September 2026 after production commenced in November 2024. Additional battle sequences were filmed later, with the lead cast returning for portions of the war drama. 'Love & War' is set to be released worldwide in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu on January 21, 2027.
