Over two decades ago, Yash Chopra's Veer-Zaara, a poetry on celluloid, brought together Shah Rukh Khan, Preity Zinta and Rani Mukerji in a timeless story transcending borders. SRK played Veer Pratap Singh, an Indian Air Force Pilot, who falls in love with Zaara Hayat Khan (Preity), a Pakistani woman from a powerful political family. When Veer rescues Zaara after a bus accident during her visit to India, the two form a bond. Upon returning to Pakistan, she realises her feelings for Veer but is already betrothed to Raza Sharazi (Manoj Bajpayee).
