One day, on duty, he comes across a stranded Zaara... a girl from Pakistan. Zaara, a carefree, sprightly girl has come to India to fulfill her surrogate mother's dying wish. She meets with a bus accident leaving her stranded in a foreign land. Veer saves her life... and his life is never the same again... Twenty-two years later, Saamiya Siddiqui, a Pakistani lawyer on her first case, finds herself face-to-face with an aging Veer Pratap Singh. He has languished in a Pakistan jail cell for 22 years and has not spoken to anyone all these years -- and no one knows why. Her mission is to discover the truth about Veer and see to it that justice is served. And thus starts her journey to unveil the truth... the story of Veer and his life... Why has Veer been silent for 22 years? Why is he in a jail in Pakistan? Where is Zaara? What happened to her? God has written the destinies of Veer and Zaara, such that they can never be joined together. Saamiya has come to change that... to join Veer and Zaara together... forever... Veer-Zaara is not an ordinary story -- it's a love legend, Veer and Zaara's love legend. This is a saga of love, separation, courage and sacrifice. A love that is divine. A love that is whole-hearted. A love that is completely consuming. A love that grows with separation. Deepens with sacrifice. A love that is an inspiration... and will remain a legend forever. -- © Yash Raj Films [More]

Veer-Zaara is so arresting, its scenes so full of beauty and colors, that the three hours go by almost too fast.

Director Yash Chopra manages to fight several culture wars while milking the melodrama.

Though Chopra's film is emotionally extravagant even by the standards of India's epically unrestrained cinema, the star-crossed lovers bear the weighty metaphorical significance of their travails surprisingly lightly.
