The film tells the poignant tale of star-crossed lovers Veer Pratap Singh, played by Shah Rukh Khan, an Indian Air Force officer, and Zaara Hayaat Khan, portrayed by Preity Zinta, the daughter of a Pakistani politician. Their love story unfolds under extraordinary circumstances, leading to Veer’s wrongful imprisonment due to a false conspiracy. Two decades later, a determined young Pakistani lawyer, Saamiya Siddiqui (Rani Mukerji), takes on his case. The film boasts an impressive supporting cast, including notable actors such as Amitabh Bachchan, Hema Malini, Divya Dutta, Manoj Bajpayee, Boman Irani, Anupam Kher, and Kirron Kher.
