Bhansali Bans Phones on Love & War Set to Curb Leaks

The crackdown seeks to stop leaks to protect Bhansali’s control over the film’s look.

Overview

  • The production, which enforced a no-phones rule reported Wednesday, now requires every cast and crew member to submit devices before entering the set.
  • The move follows online leaks from earlier shoots, including an August fan video that showed a chase sequence with Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal.
  • Industry sources say security now goes beyond standard NDAs to block photos and scene details from reaching social media.
  • Reports say Bhansali scrapped a 45-day overseas plan and rebuilt Italy on a Mumbai set to keep tighter control of logistics and visuals.
  • The film brings Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal together for the first time on screen, adding pressure to keep the high-profile shoot under wraps.
