Sanjay Leela Bhansali Gears Up for the Grand Finale of His Most Awaited 2027 Film
Director Sanjay Leela Bhansali is entering the final shooting schedule of his highly anticipated film Love & War, starring Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal. The film, considered one of the biggest Bollywood releases of 2027, is now in its last phase of production, with the makers preparing to shoot an action-packed climax.
According to reports, the final schedule will feature two large-scale war sequences along with two dance numbers, making the film’s ending one of its biggest highlights.
Final Schedule Begins in Mumbai
The last leg of filming is scheduled to begin on August 3 at Royal Palms, Goregaon, Mumbai.
Reports suggest that Bhansali aims to wrap up the entire shoot by August 31, as the lead actors will soon move on to their upcoming projects.
Once filming is completed, Ranbir Kapoor is expected to begin promotional activities for Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana from mid-September.
Two Grand War Scenes Planned
According to media reports, the climax has been designed on a massive scale.
The production team is reportedly planning to film:
- Two large-scale war sequences
- Two dance numbers
- Extensive action choreography featuring approximately 50 stunt performers
- Around 300 to 350 junior artists participating in the battle scenes
To ensure flawless execution, the filmmakers have reportedly scheduled 10 days of rehearsals before filming the action sequences.
The large ensemble and detailed preparation reflect Bhansali’s signature style of combining grand visuals with emotional storytelling.
Release Date
Originally scheduled for release in December 2025, Love & War has been postponed and is now set to arrive in theatres on January 21, 2027.
The delay has allowed the filmmakers additional time to complete the film’s ambitious production and visual scale.
Ranbir Kapoor’s Upcoming Projects
Following the completion of Love & War, Ranbir Kapoor will focus on promoting Ramayana, directed by Nitesh Tiwari.
In the mythological epic:
- Ranbir Kapoor will portray Lord Rama.
- Sai Pallavi will play Sita.
- Sunny Deol has been cast as Hanuman.
- Yash will appear as Ravana.
- Ravi Dubey will portray Lakshmana.
- Veteran actor Arun Govil will be seen as King Dasharatha.
Produced by Namit Malhotra and Yash, Ramayana: Part 1 is scheduled for a Diwali 2026 release, while Ramayana: Part 2 is expected to arrive during Diwali 2027.
What to Expect from Love & War
With Sanjay Leela Bhansali directing a star-studded cast, Love & War is expected to combine romance, drama, music, and large-scale action in a visually spectacular cinematic experience.
If reports about the final schedule are accurate, the film’s climax—with its elaborate war sequences and grand dance performances—could become one of the biggest highlights of the movie.
