As the anticipation around Sanjay Leela Bhansali`s Love and War continues to build, recent reports emerged claiming that the film is facing delays in filming and, hence, the release date has been postponed to 2027. However, sources close to the development have refuted the reports, confirming that the film is on track for its 2026 release.
A recent report in Pinkvilla claimed that a sizeable portion of the film’s shoot is still pending due to which the makers are currently reassessing and reworking the project’s schedule. The report suggested that the makers plan to complete principal photography by June 2026, after which the film is expected to move into an extensive post-production phase.
