Veer-Zaara is a film situated in both Pakistan and the Punjab region of India. It stars the unforgettable Sharukh Khan as Squadron Leader Veer Pratap Singh, an officer in the Indian Air Force who falls in love with the beautiful Zaara Hayaat Khan, played by Preity Zinta, while he rescues her from a bus wreck. The film is told in flashback form by an aged Veer, and the film tells the story of him trying to figure out how to deal with his love for the Pakistani Zaara. Zaara is in an arranged marriage which would cement a political tie with another prominent Pakistani family, therefore she is very important to her family. Can Veer win her and her family over?
This film also introduces Rani Mukherjee, who plays Saamiya Siddique, a lawyer fighting for Veer’s freedom from prison. She is also a prominent campaigner for women’s rights, and many people don’t want her to win the case because she might catapult women to professional prominence with her success. CAN SHE DO IT!? -Grady Macklin
