Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s most-awaited period drama just got a whole lot more intriguing. After giving fans a taste of Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt’s characters, the makers have finally unveiled Vicky Kaushal’s first look from “Love & War” — and it’s dripping with intensity.

### Love & War: A Brooding, Rugged Reveal

Vicky’s poster shows him lighting a cigarette with a classic silver lighter, smoke curling around his face as he stares straight into the camera. A thick moustache, a visible mark on his forehead, a dark collared shirt, and a gold ring catching the light complete a look that instantly signals danger and depth. The caption accompanying the reveal — “Nazre milengi, lekin hatengi nahin!” — only adds to the dramatic buildup.
