Shah Rukh Khan & Preity Zinta’s On-Screen Magic Remains Unfaded After Two Decades

Ahoy, Bollywood buffs! Guess what’s making waves again? The legendary jodi of Shah Rukh Khan and Preity Zinta in the iconic film Veer-Zaara is back, celebrating its 20th anniversary with an international re-release. The magic of Veer and Zaara just refuses to fade, even after two decades! Let’s dive into how this beloved film is charming audiences across the globe once more.

So, where’s the dhamaka happening? Germany, folks! Those Germans have a serious pyaar for Veer-Zaara, with the film raking in a cool €25K from just 25 screenings. Talk about efficient! Over in the land of maple syrup and politeness—Canada—the film’s scored CAD 43K across a mere 10 screens. Pre-sales are looking hotter than a mirchi pakora, hinting at a potential CAD 100K haul. Wah bhai wah!

Meanwhile, in France, the movie pocketed $12,000 USD from five screens. Not too shabby, right? But, oh ho, the US market was thoda disappointing, pulling in $28,000 USD. Come on, America, where’s the Bollywood love? Across the Gulf, Veer-Zaara charmed its way to $36,000 USD, and the UK contributed another $28,000 USD. From down under in Australia, the film gathered $12,000 USD, with a smattering of $10,000 USD from the rest of the world. All this adds up to a total international collection of 1.50 crore. Kya baat hai!

Now, rewind to when it was re-released in India, where it made 3.75 crore, bringing the grand total from both domestic and international re-releases to 5 crore. The film’s original lifetime collection was 99 crore, but thanks to 2024’s nostalgic trip, it now stands proudly at 106 crore. Looks like the timeless love story of Veer and Zaara still knows how to pull at the heartstrings of audiences worldwide. ❤️
