As we look forward to Eid 2025 and the premiere of Salman Khan’s Sikandar, excitement for Eid 2026 is already reaching unprecedented levels, as fans eagerly await the next grand production from Sanjay Leela Bhansali. The esteemed director is currently developing his forthcoming masterpiece titled Love & War, featuring prominent actors Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal in leading roles. This film, described as a contemporary period drama, has emerged as one of the most eagerly awaited releases of the year. With filming underway, the remarkable transformation of the actors into their characters is noteworthy. However, the unexpected highlight has been Daddy Kapoor's impressive workout skills, which have taken the internet by storm.

Ranbir Kapoor's Love & War Transformation

Ranbir Kapoor has been engaged in the filming of Ramayana: Part One, followed by Love & War, in a consecutive manner. Prior to these projects, he completed work on Animal, with each of these films necessitating a unique physical transformation. While his role in Animal required him to gain significant muscle mass, he opted to retain his naturally lean physique for Ramayana. Conversely, Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love & War calls for him to achieve a more chiseled and toned appearance. Consequently, the actor has undergone a remarkable transformation for the third time in recent years, resulting in a strikingly edgy look that has led to him being affectionately referred to as "Daddy Kapoor" by fans online.

Recently, Ranbir Kapoor's trainer posted a photograph on Instagram showcasing the actor executing an impressive push-up, resembling an airplane with his body perfectly straight and suspended in mid-air. This image highlights his well-defined physique, with prominent muscle definition that has generated considerable excitement among his followers. The addition of a mustache for his role in Love & War further enhances his appeal, solidifying his "Daddy Kapoor" moniker.

In addition to referring to him as Daddy Kapoor, one user remarked, “TABAHIII,” while another expressed, “Damn, Bir.” A different user noted, “Handsome Superstar Ranbir Kapoor,” and others described the situation as extraordinary. The production team has been filming the movie for some time, and we have observed various glimpses of the actors arriving on set, along with several behind-the-scenes moments.

About Love & War

Love & War features prominent performances by Alia Bhatt, Vicky Kaushal, and Ranbir Kapoor, and is described as a love triangle, a narrative style in which Sanjay Leela Bhansali excels. The film is expected to include a large ensemble cast, and initial reports suggested it was a remake of Sangam. However, Bhansali later dismissed these claims as inaccurate. Production of the film is now in full progress, with Alia Bhatt officially part of the team. Additionally, a significant cameo by a major superstar is anticipated.
