Reports claimed that Love & War would be a remake of the cult classicSangam. However, in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter India, Sanjay Leela Bhansali clarified, “Not at all. I love Sangam, I have watched it. Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam is also like Sangam. I tried to make Aishwarya Rai into Vyjayanthimala from Sangam…It’s not Sangam at all, with all my love for Raj Kapoor. You never re-make a great man, a great director’s classic. How do you re-make Mughal-E-Azam or Sangam or Pakeezah. Heeramandi is a tribute to Pakeezah, it’s my love for Kamal Amrohi.”
About Love & War
He further spoke about Love & War and said, “It’s a film that I’m very very excited about. It’s a very very special film, now not in the period. There are no pillars, no costumes, no more horses. It’s contemporary, it’s different. The music is different, I’m enjoying doing it. I have got wonderful actors…It’s a difficult film for me, so I’ll take a little time to make it properly, carefully.”
Love & War releases on March 20, 2026.
