Veer-Zaara Page #15

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.

58:25,208 -- 01:58:29,790

After all that's happened,

Raza's still ready to get married?

1250

01:
58:30,041 -- 01:58:33,790

Mariam ma'am, this marriage is

not only between Raza and Zaara.

1251

01:
58:34,666 -- 01:58:36,207

There's a very deep and a serious..

1252

01:
58:36,291 -- 01:58:39,207

..pact behind it. lt's

on this foundation..

1253

01:
58:39,291 -- 01:58:45,457

..that your husband's and

after him Raza's career rests.

1254

01:
58:47,541 -- 01:58:53,874

Raza is very well aware of this.

Now, Zaara has to understand this..

1255

01:
58:55,041 -- 01:58:58,207

lf this wedding doesn't

take place tomorrow then..

1256

01:
58:58,291 -- 01:59:02,207

..Jehangir Hayaat Khan's

daughter's name will be..

1257

01:
59:02,291 -- 01:59:05,040

..linked to an lndian man forever.

1258

01:
59:06,791 -- 01:59:09,124

Mr. Khan's years of

hard work will be ruined.

1259

01:
59:10,041 -- 01:59:14,207

He'd lose the elections

for sure, and he'll face..

1260

01:
59:14,291 -- 01:59:15,957

..a lifetime of disgrace.

1261

01:
59:17,458 -- 01:59:21,207

He will not be able to bear..

1262

01:
59:21,291 -- 01:59:25,040

..the weight of that shame.

1263

01:
59:26,625 -- 01:59:28,207

He won't be able to bear it.

1264

01:
59:37,208 -- 01:59:39,624

Prepare for the wedding,

Brother Abdul

1265

01:
59:41,208 -- 01:59:45,374

Tomorrow, there will be

a wedding in this house.

1266

01:
59:57,875 -- 01:59:58,957

Where're you going?

1267

02:
00:01,041 -- 02:00:02,124

To Zaara's house.

1268

02:
00:02,791 -- 02:00:05,624

Please don't go anywhere.

Let tonight pass.

1269

02:
00:06,291 -- 02:00:10,624

Raza is looking for you e?erywhere.

The house is completely silent.

1270

02:
00:11,041 -- 02:00:15,124

You can't go there and do anything.

Abba is in deep shock.

1271

02:
00:15,291 -- 02:00:18,707

l am the cause for the

shock and the solution.

1272

02:
00:20,625 -- 02:00:22,957

l hadn't come here

just to see Zaara's face.

1273

02:
00:24,958 -- 02:00:28,540

lf nobody speaks,

there's bound to be silenCe.

1274

02:
00:30,666 -- 02:00:32,540

Someone has to make the first move.

1275

02:
00:34,958 -- 02:00:38,124

Whether it brings on

a storm or a wedding.

1276

02:
01:38,916 -- 02:01:45,290

My name is Mariam Hayaat Khan.

l'm Zaara's mother.

1277

02:
01:46,916 -- 02:01:52,207

But perhaps, today, l have

lost the right to call her my own.

1278

02:
01:54,125 -- 02:01:56,207

Because my

daughter's not mine anymore.

1279

02:
01:57,666 -- 02:02:01,374

She's yours now.

1280

02:
02:05,208 -- 02:02:07,457

l've come to ask you to

give my daughter back to me.

1281

02:
02:09,125 -- 02:02:14,957

Please give us back our daughter.

Otherwise, her father will die.

1282

02:
02:20,541 -- 02:02:25,374

He won't be able to

bear the shame, he'll die.

1283

02:
02:29,208 -- 02:02:33,457

l've heard that you save li?es.

1284

02:
02:36,208 -- 02:02:38,374

You're the one who

saved Zaara's life.

1285

02:
02:40,833 -- 02:02:45,374

So, now, please save

her father's life.

1286

02:
02:48,208 -- 02:02:53,790

l beg of you, please save his life.

1287

02:
02:56,625 -- 02:02:58,124

Otherwise, he'll die.

1288

02:
03:01,208 -- 02:03:02,707

He'll die.

1289

02:
03:06,291 -- 02:03:11,374

A mother never has to beg to

her son. She just has to order.

1290

02:
03:15,541 -- 02:03:19,790

Zaara has always and

will always belong to you.

1291

02:
03:24,208 -- 02:03:29,124

Did you think that l would've taken

Zaara away without your permission?

1292

02:
03:33,208 -- 02:03:35,207

People say that love is blind..

1293

02:
03:35,291 -- 02:03:41,874

..so, we too were

blinded by our love.

1294

02:
03:43,375 -- 02:03:44,790

We Could only see each other.

1295

02:
03:46,291 -- 02:03:48,790

We didn't see if we

were harming anyone.

1296

02:
03:50,291 -- 02:03:52,707

Hurting anyone or..

1297

02:
03:54,791 -- 02:03:56,457

..if someone's life was at stake.

1298

02:
03:58,791 -- 02:04:00,040

We Couldn't see anything.

1299

02:
04:02,833 -- 02:04:04,457

But now, everything's clear.

1300

02:
04:06,291 -- 02:04:10,374

Love can't be more

important than someone's life.

1301

02:
04:14,291 -- 02:04:15,374

Don't you worry.

1302

02:
04:17,541 -- 02:04:23,040

Zaara will marry the

person of her parent's choice.

1303

02:
04:25,208 -- 02:04:29,290

Prepare for the wedding.

l'll talk to Zaara.

1304

02:
04:33,208 -- 02:04:40,040

l promise you that she will

willingly agree to the marriage.

1305

02:
04:49,208 -- 02:04:53,290

ls every son from

your country like you?

1306

02:
04:57,208 -- 02:04:58,374

l don't know.

1307

02:
04:59,958 -- 02:05:06,124

But yes, every mother in my

country is exactly like you.

1308

02:
06:04,791 -- 02:06:08,207

lf you think that

l've made a wrong..

1309

02:
06:08,291 -- 02:06:10,790

..decision then just tell me.

1310

02:
06:12,791 -- 02:06:15,124

No one will be able to stop

me from taking you to lndia.

1311

02:
06:23,333 -- 02:06:25,124

Your decision is absolutely right.

1312

02:
06:27,625 -- 02:06:30,040

This has happened because of

one silly mistake on my part.

1313

02:
06:31,875 -- 02:06:35,457

l'd made a promise to

myself that l won't break.

1314

02:
06:37,125 -- 02:06:39,290

lf only l'd been able to stop

myself when l saw you yesterday.

1315

02:
06:39,375 -- 02:06:40,457

That..

1316

02:
06:42,541 -- 02:06:45,790

One silly mistake of yours will help

get me through the rest of my life.

1317

02:
06:49,875 -- 02:06:56,040

lf you'd taken that away from me

then what would l take back with me?

1318

02:
06:59,791 -- 02:07:01,540

Why is God doing this to us?

1319

02:
07:02,791 -- 02:07:04,957

l've never done

anything wrong in my life.

1320

02:
07:06,208 -- 02:07:08,374

So, why is he punishing me

like this?

1321

02:
07:17,458 -- 02:07:22,040

l'm keeping two

moments of your life with me.

1322

02:
07:25,958 -- 02:07:27,707

And l'm giving two

moments of my life to you.

1323

02:
07:31,041 -- 02:07:33,040

These two moments are

the symbol of our love.

1324

02:
07:34,541 -- 02:07:35,957

These two moments make

our love story.

1325

02:
07:40,208 -- 02:07:42,790

Now, we'll live our

lives on these two moments.

1326

02:
07:47,708 -- 02:07:52,957

But with a smile.

1327

02:
07:57,208 -- 02:07:58,874

Neither will our love weaken.

1328

02:
08:02,625 -- 02:08:04,457

Nor will our duties

remain unfulfilled.

1329

02:
08:10,916 -- 02:08:15,624

You'll honour your

parents by being a good wife.

1330

02:
08:15,708 -- 02:08:22,457

And l'll fulfil father's

dreams back in the village.

1331

02:
08:27,500 -- 02:08:32,207

And after you've had

eight to ten children..

1332

02:
08:32,291 -- 02:08:35,707

..bring everyone along for a visit.

1333

02:
08:37,916 -- 02:08:44,790

l'll take you for a ride on a

cycle and show you a new village.

1334

02:
08:46,958 -- 02:08:53,040

But after ha?ing eight to ten kids,

l won't be able to sit on a cycle.

1335

02:
08:54,208 -- 02:08:57,207

Yes, you've got a point.

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…
