Veer-Zaara (2004)
Veer-Zaara is streaming in India on Netflix.
The verdict
Veer-Zaara ranks near the top of the current Hindi film crop. It holds a 7.5/10 on TMDB from 318 ratings, well above the typical run of new releases. At 192 minutes it's a long sit, so save it for when you've got the evening. In India you can stream it on Netflix.
Should you spend 3h 12m on it?
3h 12m of Hindi drama with a romance streak, fine for the whole family. At this length it's the whole evening's plan, not something to slot in after dinner.
Don't watch this if…
- you don't have 3h 12m to give it tonight — this is a full evening, not a background watch
- you want something with an edge to it — this is certified U, pitched wide
- Why
- Currently 7.5/10 from 318 ratings, which is a good sign this early.
- Skip if
- you want something you can finish before a reasonable bedtime
- Best for
- An evening with the household together
