About Veer-Zaara

Produced by Yash Raj Films, Veer-Zaara marked Yash Chopra’s third collaboration with Shah Rukh Khan after Darr (1993) and Dil To Pagal Hai (1997). The star-studded cast also included Preity Zinta, Rani Mukerji, Amitabh Bachchan, Hema Malini, Manoj Bajpayee, Boman Irani, Kirron Kher, Anupam Kher, and Divya Dutta.

The film tells a poignant cross-border love story between Veer, an Indian Air Force pilot, and Zaara, a Pakistani woman visiting India to fulfill her late grandmother's final wish. Tragedy strikes when Veer is falsely accused of espionage and imprisoned in Pakistan. Years later, a determined lawyer, played by Rani Mukerji, fights to prove his innocence and reunite him with Zaara. The film remains a celebrated example of Chopra's mastery of romantic storytelling.
