Where there is Sanjay Leela Bhansali, there are bound to be grand song sequences. In the last leg of Love & War, the filmmaker is gearing up to shoot two dance numbers with lead actors Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal. Sources have told mid-day that the first number, to be choreographed by Ganesh Acharya, will go on floors next week.

An insider revealed, “The song is high on energy, dramatic, and visually lavish as is expected from a Bhansali creation. The shoot will kick off on January 20 with the three leads in Film City, Goregaon.”

The second song, scheduled to be shot on February 9, is being described by unit members as one of Bhansali’s most experimental musical set-pieces to date. It will see the filmmaker collaborate with choreographer Shiamak Davar, who will bring a contemporary spin to the number.

“It is unlike anything Bhansali has attempted before. It’s experimental in form, movement, and staging, with Shiamak bringing a theatrical energy to the sequence,” added the source.

The actors are currently rehearsing for the songs before they report to the set next week.
