About Deepika & SLB's collaborations

About Ranbir Kapoor & SLB's collaboration

Among several highlights of the much-anticipated Sanjay Leela Bhansali directorial Love and War is his reunion with actor Ranbir Kapoor after 17 years. Since Bhansali announced the film earlier this year, his lead star remained tight-lipped about featuring in the love story - until recently, when Kapoor opened up about his excitement to return to the sets with the filmmaker who launched him in the movies.

Speaking during a session at the International Film Festival of India (IFFI), Kapoor, who began shooting for Love and War earlier this month, mentioned how he continues to remain in awe of Bhansali.

"I am extremely excited to go back to sets with him. He is my godfather. Everything I know about films, everything I know about acting, is something I learned from him. So, for me, working with him again after 17 years still feels the same. I am still in awe of him. I respect him so much," the actor said.
