SCOOP: Love & War REAL budget revealed; Sanjay Leela Bhansali's epic costs Rs 350 cr, not Rs 425 cr. Sanjay Leela Bhansali is among the most celebrated directors of Indian Film industry, whose cinema has stood the test of time. His next, Love And War is a casting coup of the decade as the maverick filmmaker has brought Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal together for the first time. Earlier in the week, there were viral reports on how Love and War budget has shot up to Rs. 425 crores, and the production has gone into turmoil. However, our reliable sources close to the project confirm that Love And War is proceeding as planned. "Love And War budgets have shot up for sure, but it happens with all Sanjay Leela Bhansali films. Initially, it was planned as a Rs. 250 crore epic, and the costs through the shoot have now shot up to Rs. 350 crores. SLB doesn't compromise on his vision, and he is passionately filming this, which he believes could be his best work to date. The Rs. 425 crore figure of cost of production is trying to harm the project on purpose, and there is no truth to the claims," a source shared with Bollywood Hungama. The source told us further, "Unlike many high on VFX films, Love And War is largely shot on sets, with recreation of the era gone by. This doesn't cost much. Anyone who understands filmmaking would say that the Rs. 425 crore budget is a bluff.

Rs. 9 crores as he is confident that the music of Golmaal 5 can work big time due to the brand value. ”Users may recall that the relationship between T-Series and Rohit Shetty had turned strained during Diwali 2024, when Bhushan Kumar’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 and Rohit’s multi-starrer Singham Again locked horns at the box office. Matters escalated further when the title track of Singham Again, unveiled just days before release, was hit with a copyright strike by T-Series. The label objected to certain elements that resembled the original Singham (2011) theme, the rights of which are owned by them. As a result, Rohit Shetty and his team were compelled to remove the song from all platforms and subsequently rework the composition. Two weeks after the release, Rohit Shetty opened up on this episode and said, “Arrey, woh T-Series ne strike kar diya na humpe. Isliye humko sab jagah se nikalna pada. Kya kare? Woh contract hi waisa hota hai, which is okay. ”Prior to this episode, Rohit Shetty and T-Series have shared a long and succe... #Rohit_Shetty #Rohit #SCOOP #Golmaal #Bhushan_Kumar #Shetty #T-Series #acquires_music #Singham #T-Series_acquires
