Love & War REAL budget revealed; Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s epic costs Rs 350 cr, not Rs 425 cr

Sanjay Leela Bhansali is one of the most famous directors in the Indian film industry, and his movies are still very popular today. His upcoming film, Love And War, is a major casting achievement of the year, as he has brought together Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal for the first time.

Earlier in the week, there were reports going viral that the budget of Love And War had gone up to Rs. 425 crores, and the production was in trouble.


However, our trusted sources close to the project say that Love And War is moving forward as planned.
 "The budget of Love And War has definitely gone up, but this is common with all of Sanjay Leela Bhansali's films. Originally, it was planned as a Rs. 250 crore movie, and the costs have now increased to Rs. 350 crores during the shoot. Sanjay Leela Bhansali doesn't give up on his vision, and he is very passionate about this film, which he believes could be his best work so far. The Rs. 425 crore figure is being spread to damage the project, and there's no truth to it," a source told.

The source added, "Unlike many movies that rely heavily on VFX, Love And War is mostly shot on sets with recreations of the past.
 This doesn’t cost a lot. Anyone who knows about filmmaking would say the Rs. 425 crore budget is a fake number. But the truth will come out, and the people should know that Love And War is a Rs. 350 crore film. The makers also plan to spend another Rs. 30 crore on marketing, which will take the total cost to Rs. 380 crores."

As for the release date, Love And War will now come out in 2027, between the two Ramayana films.
 The shooting will be finished by June.

Kerala High Court cites Padmaavat, Aarakshan verdicts to clear The Kerala Story 2: Goes Beyond’s release

On February 27, the Division Bench of the Kerala High Court, which includes Justice Sushrut Arvind Dharmadhikari and Justice P V Balakrishnan, stopped a temporary order from a Single Judge that had paused the release of the movie The Kerala Story 2: Goes Beyond for 15 days.

The Single Judge had claimed that parts of the film's teaser showed content that could possibly disrupt communal harmony and that the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) might not have given proper consideration to this under Section 5B of the Cinematograph Act, 1952.
 However, the Division Bench pointed out that once the CBFC, which is a statutory authority, has fully reviewed the film and given certification, courts should generally assume that they have properly considered the matter.

The court used two major Supreme Court decisions to back its decision.
 First, in Prakash Jha Productions v. Union of India, related to the movie Aarakshan, the Supreme Court said that once a film is certified by the CBFC, state governments can't stop its screening just because of fears about law and order. The court made it clear that the responsibility of maintaining public order lies with the state, not as a reason to stop a film that has been certified.

Second, the court referred to Viacom18 Media Pvt. Ltd. v. Union of India, the case involving the movie Padmaavat.
 The Supreme Court in that case said that creative content is protected under Article 19(1)(a) of the Constitution. Once a film is certified, there is a strong assumption that the statutory rules, including those about public order and communal harmony, were considered properly. States can't block a film on uncertain or speculative grounds.

The Kerala High Court said the petitioners had not watched the full film and were only using clips from the teaser.
 It also noted that the producer had made changes based on the CBFC's recommendations, which supports the idea that the film went through proper review. Therefore, making a decision based only on selected parts of the film could not be justified.

In the case of Viacom18 Media Private Limited and others v. Union of India and others [(2018) 1 SCC 761], the Supreme Court stayed the state-imposed bans on the film Padmaavat in Gujarat, Rajasthan, etc.
 The court upheld the freedom of expression and said states cannot stop showing a film that has been certified by the CBFC because maintaining law and order is the state's job, not a reason to block the film.

The case of M/S Prakash Jha Productions & Anr vs Union Of India & Ors (2011) 8 SCC 372 is another landmark Supreme Court decision.
 It confirmed that once a film is certified by the CBFC, state governments cannot block it from being shown because of possible public unrest. This reinforces the importance of freedom of speech.

The Revenge FIRST review out ahead of March 19 release; Yami Gautam Dhar calls sequel “beyond extraordinary”

Dhurandhar: The Revenge, the sequel to the 2024 hit Dhurandhar, is set to release in theatres on March 19, 2026. Before its big premiere, actor Yami Gautam shared her thoughts on the film, saying it was a very emotional experience. Yami, who is married to director Aditya Dhar, will also make a small appearance in the sequel. She talked about her feelings at the News18 Rising Bharat Summit 2026, saying she had already watched the film.

“Dhurandhar: The Revenge is Beyond Extraordinary”
“I have already watched Dhurandhar 2.
 It is beyond extraordinary. I was really emotional,” Yami said at the event. She mentioned that she had to catch a flight soon after watching the film and couldn’t immediately share her thoughts with Aditya Dhar.

“I had to read a script, but I couldn’t.
 I had to watch something, but I couldn’t. I was just watching the beautiful sunset outside and wondering what I would tell Aditya when the flight landed,” she said, adding that she wanted to express her feelings properly before speaking to him.

According to Yami, the sequel shows how much the director cares about his audience and his country.
 “Aditya loves his audience and the country, and he has put his life into making this film. Dhurandhar 2 will be an experience the audience will never forget,” she said.

Recalling Her Reaction to Part One
When talking about the first film, Yami said she believed in its impact even before it was released.
 She said she was shooting for Article 370 when she first read the initial script of Dhurandhar.

“It was just 40 pages, but my eyes welled up.
 I wasn’t able to say anything, and my reaction was enough to tell Aditya how I truly felt,” she said, adding that she knew how much effort and belief went into making the film.

The Dhurandhar franchise follows a high-stakes covert counter-terrorism operation.
 The story is about an undercover Indian intelligence agent who goes into Karachi’s criminal groups and political leaders in Pakistan to break up a terror network that is targeting India. The plot is inspired by some real-life geopolitical events in South Asia, including the Indian Airlines Flight 814 hijacking, the 2001 Indian Parliament attack, the 2008 Mumbai attacks, and events linked to Operation Lyari.

The sequel will be released on the same day as Yash’s Toxic: A Fairytale For Grown Ups.

The same source added that the film might be released in August, and the official announcement is coming soon. "
The release date of Haiwaan will be planned carefully, as the makers want a clear window. It’s a high-concept thriller, and the team is determined not to release it during a busy time. The expected release is sometime in August."  

Haiwaan is directed by Priyadarshan, produced by KVN Productions, and includes a special appearance by Mohanlal.
 The Rs. 80 crore deal further boosts Akshay Kumar’s popularity in the market.

Siddhant Chaturvedi, Alizeh to lead Vikas Bahl’s 1990s-set UK Punjabi music drama: Report

Filmmaker Vikas Bahl is planning a new movie that will be a full musical romance drama. The project, which doesn’t have a title yet, will be starring Siddhant Chaturvedi and Alizeh Agnihotri as the main characters. The movie is being made by Reliance Entertainment.

A report from Variety India says the film is based on the rise of the UK Punjabi underground music scene in the 1990s.
 That was a time when music helped people express their identity, especially for those who had moved to the UK from Punjab. This movement mixed traditional Punjabi folk music with Western styles, creating a unique sound that was popular across different groups in the UK.

The film will focus on a love story that deals with themes like ambition, identity, and artistic dreams.
 Siddhant is expected to play a drummer, and Alizeh will be a singer. The story will follow their personal and creative journeys during a time that is considered very important for the development of UK Punjabi music.

Bahl, who has worked on movies like Queen, Super 30, and Shaitaan, has finished writing the script and is getting ready for pre-production.
 Filming is set to begin in the second half of 2026.

This will be Siddhant’s second movie with Bahl.
 Their first is a romantic comedy called Dil Ka Darwaza Khol Na Darling, which is coming out later this year. Siddhant has recently acted in Do Deewane Seher Mein and is set to start work on a biopic about the famous filmmaker V. Shantaram before moving on to this musical.

Alizeh made her acting debut in Farrey, which is a Hindi version of the Thai movie Bad Genius.
 This new film will be her second feature film.
