Evergreen romantic drama

Directed by legendary filmmaker Yash Chopra, this Bollywood romantic drama was originally released in 2004. Back then, it was hailed for its direction, screenplay, dialogues, and music. Even the performances of SRK, Preity, Rani Mukerji, and others were appreciated by critics and audiences alike. It all helped the film to become a big commercial success, but more than that, it carved its special space in the romantic genre.

Be it Yash Chopra, Shah Rukh Khan, Preity Zinta, or others, Veer Zaara went down as one of the best films in the career of all those who were associated with it. In fact, even today, it continues to be discussed whenever there are debates about the best romantic dramas made in Indian cinema.
