Veer-Zaara Page #14

Synopsis: Squadron Leader Veer Pratap Singh (Shah Rukh Khan) is a rescue pilot with the Indian Air Force. In the line of duty he comes across a stranded Zaara (Preity Zinta) - a girl from Pakistan who has come to India to fulfill her surrogate mothers dying wish. Veer saves her life and his life is never the same again. Twenty two years later Saamia Siddiqui (Rani Mukerji), a Pakistani human rights lawyer on her first case, finds herself face to face with an ageing 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. VEER-ZAARA 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 and deepens with sacrifice. A love that is an inspiration - and will remain a legend forever.

Hello, Captain veer Singh?

l'm Shabbo speaking.

1163

01:
48:25,500 -- 01:48:29,040

Shabbo? l'm sorry.

l can't place you.

1164

01:
48:33,333 -- 01:48:35,957

l'm calling from Zaara's house.

1165

01:
48:42,125 -- 01:48:46,207

An unknown girl who l'd never

met before, was giving me..

1166

01:
48:46,291 -- 01:48:53,624

..the biggest news of my life.

She very simply told me that..

1167

01:
48:54,541 -- 01:48:59,124

..Zaara was in love with you

and she's about to get married.

1168

01:
48:59,625 -- 01:49:02,957

Come to Lahore, take Zaara away.

1169

01:
49:03,708 -- 01:49:05,790

She'll never be able to

take this step all by herself.

1170

01:
49:07,291 -- 01:49:10,124

She says that you can

give your life for her.

1171

01:
49:11,375 -- 01:49:13,624

And then she asked

me one last question.

1172

01:
49:16,208 -- 01:49:25,040

How much do you love Zaara?

1173

01:
49:27,125 -- 01:49:30,290

l didn't have an answer

to that question then.

1174

01:
49:31,208 -- 01:49:32,374

Neither do l ha?e one now.

1175

01:
49:34,541 -- 01:49:36,707

How much do l love Zaara?

1176

01:
49:39,125 -- 01:49:40,207

l don't know.

1177

01:
49:41,291 -- 01:49:42,374

l know.

1178

01:
49:46,291 -- 01:49:51,040

An lndian Air Force Pilot is not

permitted to come to Pakistan.

1179

01:
49:53,208 -- 01:49:58,207

So, l know that the

minute you got this news..

1180

01:
49:58,291 -- 01:50:01,207

..you resigned knowing

fully well that you will..

1181

01:
50:01,291 -- 01:50:03,540

..never be able to rejoin.

1182

01:
50:05,791 -- 01:50:11,207

Then without telling

anyone you left for Lahore.

1183

01:
50:11,291 -- 01:50:18,290

Not knowing the outcome of the

journey. Would you reaCh in time?

1184

01:
50:19,791 -- 01:50:25,290

Would you meet Zaara?

Would Zaara come back with you?

1185

01:
50:26,958 -- 01:50:32,790

Or would you yourself be able to

return.. you didn't know anything.

1186

01:
50:34,958 -- 01:50:36,374

But you still left.

1187

01:
50:39,208 -- 01:50:42,957

Perhaps, you don't know,

but l know..

1188

01:
50:44,416 -- 01:50:48,374

..how much you love Zaara. l know.

1189

01:
51:13,708 -- 01:51:16,874

Welcome, sir. l'm Shabbo.

1190

01:
51:32,125 -- 01:51:35,540

l'm sorry, l couldn't arrange

for anything better than this.

1191

01:
51:41,291 -- 01:51:44,457

Wow, you can see the

entire city from here.

1192

01:
51:47,625 -- 01:51:50,707

There can't be a better room

than this in the whole of Lahore.

1193

01:
51:53,625 -- 01:51:56,124

l didn't tell Zaara

that you're coming.

1194

01:
52:00,791 -- 01:52:02,624

l was scared that she would stop me.

1195

01:
52:03,791 -- 01:52:07,707

Day after tomorrow is her wedding.

She can't come out of her house.

1196

01:
52:08,791 -- 01:52:10,624

But tomorrow, she'll be going

to the shrine with everyone.

1197

01:
52:12,291 -- 01:52:17,124

This is Munir, my younger brother.

He'll bring you to the shrine.

1198

01:
52:18,333 -- 01:52:19,624

Then we'll leave it to God.

1199

01:
52:20,791 -- 01:52:23,624

So, Munir, my fate

is in your hands now.

1200

01:
52:26,041 -- 01:52:28,124

Well, l'll leave.

1201

01:
52:28,791 -- 01:52:29,874

Leaving?

1202

01:
52:30,375 -- 01:52:32,207

l got to leave,

if l'm away for long..

1203

01:
52:32,291 -- 01:52:33,957

..they'll start wondering

where l am.

1204

01:
52:34,541 -- 01:52:36,540

lf you need anything,

Munir's here.

1205

01:
52:40,125 -- 01:52:41,207

Thank you, Shabbo.

1206

01:
52:44,625 -- 01:52:49,790

l didn't think you'd come,

but now, after meeting you..

1207

01:
52:51,041 -- 01:52:55,040

..l'm sure you'll take

Zaara with you.

1208

01:
52:56,958 -- 01:52:58,040

How could l not Come?

1209

01:
52:58,708 -- 01:53:03,540

My father says, "True love

happens only once in a lifetime."

1210

01:
53:04,375 -- 01:53:10,207

"And when it does, no God or

Allah can come in its way."

1211

01:
53:12,208 -- 01:53:18,540

Tomorrow, we'll know how

true my love is in Allah's eyes.

1212

01:
53:18,958 -- 01:53:26,624

"l have broken all the

barriers of society."

1213

01:
53:26,708 -- 01:53:37,040

"l have left the

world and come to you."

1214

01:
53:37,625 -- 01:53:47,374

"A besotted lover

has come to your door."

1215

01:
53:47,500 -- 01:53:52,207

"Has come, has come.."

- "A besotted lover has come."

1216

01:
53:52,291 -- 01:54:01,707

"A besotted lover

has come to your door."

1217

01:
54:02,125 -- 01:54:07,207

"Besotted by you, besotted

by you, besotted by you.."

1218

01:
54:07,291 -- 01:54:15,290

"A besotted lover

has come to your door."

1219

01:
54:15,375 -- 01:54:19,207

"He is completely devoted to you."

1220

01:
54:19,291 -- 01:54:24,540

"He is completely obsessed by you."

1221

01:
54:24,625 -- 01:54:29,124

"He will die for your love."

1222

01:
54:29,208 -- 01:54:38,624

"A besotted lover

has come to your door."

1223

01:
54:39,625 -- 01:54:49,624

1224

01:
54:54,125 -- 01:54:57,207

"lf l see your face.."

1225

01:
54:57,291 -- 01:55:03,040

"l will forget all my sorrows."

1226

01:
55:03,333 -- 01:55:07,707

"These tears that are flowing,

this is all they are saying."

1227

01:
55:07,958 -- 01:55:12,374

"You are beyond where l am,

but l have come here."

1228

01:
55:12,625 -- 01:55:29,374

"lf l could have one favour,

just a glance from your eyes.."

1229

01:
55:29,708 -- 01:55:38,874

"l would give my breath and heart.

l would give my entire life."

1230

01:
55:38,958 -- 01:55:43,290

"Like the moth dies on the flame.."

1231

01:
55:43,458 -- 01:56:15,290

"A besotted lover

has come to your door."

1232

01:
56:15,625 -- 01:56:21,290

"A besotted lover.

A besotted lover."

1233

01:
56:21,625 -- 01:56:25,290

"A besotted lover."

1234

01:
56:31,875 -- 01:56:37,874

"A besotted lover.

A besotted lover."

1235

01:
56:38,041 -- 01:56:41,624

"Besotted. Besotted."

1236

01:
56:41,958 -- 01:56:48,207

"Your love story has

reached a critical juncture.

1237

01:
56:48,291 -- 01:56:54,124

She has to sacrifice

herself in your love."

1238

01:
56:54,208 -- 01:57:09,124

"Your love story has

reached a critical juncture."

1239

01:
57:30,333 -- 01:57:32,540

He's conscious, but

he doesn't want to be.

1240

01:
57:33,708 -- 01:57:36,374

He's listening to everything,

but he doesn't want to hear.

1241

01:
57:37,916 -- 01:57:44,540

He's festering the shock deep

within as if he's punishing himself.

1242

01:
57:47,291 -- 01:57:49,457

The next 24 hours are very critical.

1243

01:
57:50,625 -- 01:57:53,374

He may not be able

to take another shock.

1244

01:
57:55,541 -- 01:57:59,624

The nurse is here and l will keep

coming every three or four hours.

1245

01:
58:01,708 -- 01:58:03,040

Goodbye.

1246

01:
58:12,291 -- 01:58:16,374

Don't worry, Sister-in-law.

They were all our own people.

1247

01:
58:17,208 -- 01:58:19,790

Thank Allah that the news

hasn't spread in the city.

1248

01:
58:20,875 -- 01:58:24,374

Anyway, tomorrow, after the wedding,

all the wagging tongues will stop.

Aditya Chopra

Aditya Chopra (born 21 May 1971) is an Indian filmmaker. His work as a director includes Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995), Mohabbatein (2000), Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi (2008) and Befikre (2016).He is also the current Chairman of India's multi-national film, media and entertainment conglomerate Yash Raj Films (YRF). Chopra has written and produced a number of critically acclaimed and commercially successful films under the banner such as Veer-Zaara (2004), Fanaa (2006), Band Baaja Baaraat (2010), Jab Tak Hai Jaan (2012), the Dhoom series (2004, 2006 & 2013), Sultan (2016) and the Tiger series (2012 & 2017). He has broken away from typecast through production of off-beat films such as Kabul Express (2006), Chak De! India (2007), Rocket Singh (2009), Dum Laga Ke Haisha (2015) and Hichki! (2018), that do not necessarily fit into the realm of "Masala films". Chopra is also the first to move towards a true film studio model through independent projects helmed by producers, writers and directors under his banner. Major production and post-production work of the company is now carried out of YRF Studios (co-founded by his ex-wife Payal Khanna), where Chopra serves as Chief Executive. As of March 2018, he has produced eight films that have accumulated worldwide gross earnings of more than ₹200 crore, which is the most for an Indian film producer. In December 2009, Chopra rejected an extremely aggressive acquisition bid by Walt Disney, valued upwards of ₹2500 crore, to remain and continue purely as an independent entity exclusively funded by domestic enterprises. Apart from emerging as an equitable brand, his company has earned the status of a movie movie mogul, through distribution networks spread across the globe. With a majority of his work being part of the highest grossing films of all time, the company is estimated to be net worth ₹6350 crore (FY17/18) by multiple NSE and BSE analysts, thereby making it the biggest and most successful film production company in the history of Cinema. The Government of India honoured him with the National Film Award for his contribution to the arts, on three separate years (1995, 2005 and 2007) through the Directorate of Film Festivals. In June 2018, he was awarded membership into The Academy by the Producers Guild of America. Widely regarded as one of the most influential and powerful executives in Indian entertainment, Chopra has however rejected the publicity and fame that came with being Yash Chopra's son and the Chief Executive of Yash Raj Films. He has remained extremely media-shy and a passive individual, battling constant reports of an alleged dysthymic disorder throughout his three-decade career, resulting in very few public photos of him being in existence. more…
