Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s “Love & War” Secures Record Deals Worth Crores
Renowned filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali is preparing to step into the realm of solo production with his highly anticipated epic period drama, “Love & War.” The star-studded film features leading actors Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal and is poised to commence production in the coming weeks. Bhansali’s decision to produce the film independently follows the triumph of his debut web series, “Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar,” on the streaming platform Netflix. Buoyed by this success, Bhansali has reportedly struck a significant post-theatrical deal with the streaming giant.
Reportedly Lucrative Deals: According to sources cited in a report by Mid-day, Netflix has committed a whopping Rs. 130 crore for the streaming rights of “Love & War,” with the potential for this figure to escalate based on the film’s performance at the box office. In addition to the Netflix agreement, Bhansali has also sealed a lucrative music rights deal with Saregama worth an estimated Rs. 35 crore. Further negotiations are ongoing with a leading television network for the satellite rights, with the deal speculated to be valued at around Rs. 50 crore.
Production Budget: The ambitious period drama “Love & War” is estimated to boast a production budget of approximately Rs. 200 crore, excluding the fees of the lead actors. Interestingly, Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal have opted for performance-based deals with Bhansali, linking their compensation to the film’s theatrical success. Ranbir Kapoor, in particular, is rumored to have secured a substantial share of the theatrical revenues.
