First, I’m not a human, who starts crying easy and there are only a few movies – maybe three, where my eyes shows tears - but this movie is special. I guess I’ve seen Veer-Zaara about 15 times and from 3 hours running time, I was crying about 2 hours – each time I watch it. Sometimes I must stop it, because my heart, my soul, my eyes and my mind needs a break. I tried to find out what’s the reason, why this movie touches me so deeply and there are a few points. First of all it is the personality of Veer. This character has such a beautiful soul, so pure and clear – and I wish I had a brother or a friend like Veer, because my feelings, the way of thinking – are similar and I’m sure, only two humans with the same values are able to really understand one another, even without words. There is the love and pride for its country, the love and respect for the two people whom are mother and father for him, the respect for Zaara’s mother, the selfless sacrifice to keep Zaara’s father alive and Zaara happy and to protect her honour. All the scenes that really impressed me, hurt me and make me cry, you can find on “The Movie” – sites. After I have seen Shah Rukh’s inner world, I understand, that this was not only a role he plays, my heart tell me, deep inside Shah Rukh is Veer. The love for his parents, the love for his family, the love for his country – this all is real – this all is Shah Rukh, himself. Seeing the movie I ask myself, what will I be able to do for someone I love? This may be love for another human I feel closed to and whom I respect from the bottom of my heart, love for a good friend, for a brother, it may be a woman’s love for a man or the love of a mother for her child. The answer was easy – I’ll give my life, or give up everything I desire for someone I love, even when letting go that person means, to have a heartbreak for the rest of my life. Maybe this is the reason, why this movie touches my soul again and again – I guess, I recognize myself in the person of Veer. My way of life was not easy and I’ve ever faced all problems and myself, I’ve never been running away, whatever I had to resolve. The people say I am a strength personality, but my whole life – pure feelings makes me helpless – I still had a problem to menage them. |

The movie and his messages are once again a great work of Yash Chopra – Indians best director of (he)arts. The sensitive characters, the beautiful locations, the very emotional dialogues and the story are destined to win hearts and reach minds. Aditya Chopra was the perfect addition. Veer-Zaara is a really ingenious masterpiece of father and son. The tree wonderful actors – a very authentic Shah Rukh Khan as Veer, a perfect acting Rani Mukherjee as the first female lawyer Saamiya, a sweet and lovely Preity Zinta as Zaara and finally a great Amitabh Bachchan in a special appearance makes the movie perfect. To all these superlatives comes the high quality music of Madan Mohan, the best Indian singers and the fastidious lyrics of Javed Akhtar. The love story of Veer and Zaara is very romantic and placed directly in our hearts. And this is not the only message of this wonderful movie. Chopra has made a big mindstep for the eastern cultural circle. There are the arrangements of parents for the marriage, without considering the greatest power of life – the love. He shows the separation of two countries, whom in fact are still one and that we all have one just one God, taking care of us, however we call him and which way we praise him - God is love. Last but not least it is a tribute to the women’s role in his part of the world. Chopra has placed these really important messages in the greatest epos of cinematographic arts, without setting them in front of the story line. They are all unspoken, but all time present during the whole runtime of the movie and in our minds. Veer-Zaara is a great achievement of Yash and Aditya Chopra, the actors and the whole crew and not only worth to be named together with Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet”, I consider it much better and I guess I’m not the only one with this opinion. |
