Kareena Kapoor Says Her Bond With Sanjay Leela Bhansali Is ‘Love And War': 'We Are Always Fluctuating'
Kareena Kapoor opens up about her complex bond with Sanjay Leela Bhansali, calling it 'love and war.' Here's what she told Vicky Kaushal in an interview. Kareena Kapoor Khan has always worn her heart on her sleeve, and in a recent interview, she delivered another gem that's now making waves across Bollywood circles. While speaking with actor Vicky Kaushal for The Hollywood Reporter, Kareena opened up about her long and layered relationship with filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali—describing it in one pithy, poetic line: 'It is love and war between him and I." The moment came during a conversation about Vicky's upcoming film Love & War, directed by Bhansali and co-starring Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt. As Vicky spoke about his experience working with the auteur, Kareena interjected with a smile and said, 'I am waiting to see you in the Bhansali film. Of course, he is the Sanjay Leela Bhansali, and Love and War is actually me and Sanjay. You can tell him that. He will understand. We have love and war." Caught off-guard, Vicky chuckled and asked, 'What is it now? Love or war?" Kareena responded with a laugh, 'We are always fluctuating." Her remark not only hinted at an emotional push-and-pull but also revived conversations about the duo's professional history—marked by anticipation, creative disagreements, and a series of near-collaborations that never fully came to fruition. Kareena was initially considered for the role of Paro in Bhansali's Devdas—a part that eventually went to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Years later, she was again linked to Bhansali's Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela, but exited the project before filming began. Despite the missed opportunities, both have maintained a quiet admiration for each other's craft, albeit from a distance. Bhansali, known for his opulent storytelling and emotional depth, is now returning to the romance genre with Love & War. The film is slated for a 2026 release and marks his first major theatrical venture since the Netflix series Heeramandi. With a lead cast featuring Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal, the film is poised to be another cinematic epic, steeped in themes of passion, sacrifice, and emotional tumult.

Netflix unveils first 6 minutes of Squid Game Season 3, Player 456 is reborn to face more obstacles
Jun 26, 2025 07:28 PM IST Ahead of the highly anticipated release of Squid Game Season 3, Netflix has released the first 6 minutes of the show. To the surprise of the surviving Squid Game contestants, it is Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae), aka Player 456, who is revealed to be alive. What does that mean for the rest of the contestants? Lee Jung-jae plays player 456 in Squid Game. The video shared by Netflix Tudum showed the rebirth of Player 456, who rises up from the coffin which is presented as a gift. He had challenged the Front Man after losing one of his closest friends last season. He wakes up to the concern of the rest of the survivors and is distressed. He even begs the guards to kill him. On the other hand, we follow a squad who are searching for an island amid unfamiliar disappearances. What the makers said Squid Game creator and director Hwang Dong-hyuk reveals to Tudum, 'For Front Man, sending Gi-hun back to the game — rather than killing him — makes sense. He wants Gi-hun to really feel and understand the heavy price of his own mistakes. Front Man wants Gi-hun to be driven to a state where he will finally give up his faith in humanity as well as faith in himself. It's important for the Front Man that Gi-hun returns to the game.' Actor Lee Jung-jae spoke about this moment and said, "When the coffin is opened, Gi-hun is reborn. He has to go back to the competition, play the game again, and make choices again.' Season 3 is the final instalment of Squid Game, and this time, the stakes of the game are even higher. The first season went on to become one of Netflix's most-watched series and won several accolades, including six Primetime Emmy Awards. Season 3 will premiere on Netflix this Friday, June 27.
