Vicky Kaushal is enjoying a career-high after the massive success of Chhaava. His next big project Love And War was already one of the most anticipated films of 2026. With Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Kaushal himself leading the cast, the hype was strong from the start.
Now, with Vicky’s star power soaring, trade experts believe the film’s box office potential has grown even bigger.
Insiders Are Confident That Love And War Will Be A HUGE Hit
Trade analysts are confident that Love And War will be a massive hit, especially with Sanjay Leela Bhansali directing. A trade veteran said, “Sanjay Leela Bhansali and SS Rajamouli are the best filmmakers we have today. Hence, Love And War will be massive.”
Another industry expert highlighted the film’s strong commercial appeal. “The excitement is even higher now. Both Ranbir and Vicky have delivered Rs. 500 crore grossers, which makes this a box office goldmine. Bhansali’s track record only adds to the hype.”
Film producer and business analyst Girish Johar shared his thoughts on Vicky’s career growth. He shared, “This film will showcase his versatility. It’s different and more somber than Chhaava, but backed by Bhansali, it will be a grand spectacle. It reminds me of Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, which was also a two-hero-one-heroine film. That movie’s songs are still loved today, and I see Love And War having a similar impact.”
Vicky Kaushal’s Rising Influence After Chhaava Success
One film exhibitor pointed out how Vicky’s newfound success has shifted the film’s dynamics. “If the second lead has delivered a bigger hit than the first, it definitely adds value. Bhansali will be under pressure to give Vicky a strong presence in the film. Vicky himself will want to maintain his post-Chhaava momentum.”
Scheduled for release on March 20, 2026, the film is rumoured to be a love triangle, drawing comparisons to classics like Sangam. While the plot remains under wraps, fans are eager to see the chemistry between the trio.
Alia Bhatt’s Excitement For Love And War
Alia Bhatt, who reunites with Ranbir and Vicky for this project, has expressed her enthusiasm. The trio has been bonding on the set and their real-life friendship is expected to translate into strong on-screen chemistry.
This marks Vicky’s first collaboration with Bhansali and Alia, while Ranbir reunites with the director after Saawariya and Alia after Gangubai Kathiawadi.
