With a gripping storyline and a visually stunning presentation, Love And War is poised to be a cinematic masterpiece that captivates audiences.
Toxic: An Action-Packed Thriller
On the opposing side, Toxic promises to deliver a high-octane experience, led by Kannada superstar Yash.

A Clash of Genres: Who Will Prevail?
