‘It’s a magical piece’: Vijay Ganguly on Ranbir Kapoor-Alia Bhatt’s song in Love & War

Reflecting on his experience of working with Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Ganguly spoke highly of the filmmaker’s creative involvement and collaborative approach. “He’s someone who will give you everything that you need. If I need five days, he will let me take six. So it’s like you get everything with him. And creatively, he is involved in every small little process. So it’s just a dream to work with someone like that.”

During the same conversation, Vijay Ganguly revealed that he is also working on two major Yash Raj Films projects, the upcoming spy action thriller Alpha, starring Alia Bhatt and Sharvari, and Ahaan Panday’s next film directed by Ali Abbas Zafar.

‘Aditya Chopra is involved in every film’

Talking about his association with Yash Raj Films, Ganguly praised Aditya Chopra for his creative inputs across projects. “Aditya Chopra is involved in every film, including Ahaan’s upcoming project. He’s someone I always turn to and ask, ‘Aditya sir, watch what we’ve done and tell us what you feel.’ What he brings is incredible clarity. He’ll point out something very specific, sometimes even a single word or movement and suggest a completely different way of approaching it. Those insights often elevate the work and help make it stronger.”

At the recently held Chetak SCREEN Awards, Vijay Ganguly won the Best Choreography award for “Shararat” from Dhurandhar, further cementing his standing as one of the industry’s most sought-after choreographers.
