Veer asking Zaara for a day of her life because he just couldn't let her go like that and didn't yet understand that this was perhaps love.
And when he understood, there was Raza. And still he confessed. And left it at that.
Zaara meanwhile found that love is possible and also Veer is perhaps the love of her life. But again Raza.
Her yearning takes heights, more so because of the helplessness. Which calls Veer to her land, and he being him, gives up everything for the woman he loves. Everything.
If that was not painful enough. Zaara shows her courage in breaking off a marriage, a political alliance at that, and leaving for the land of the man she loves.
And they both live without the knowledge of each other. 22 years. And you want me to not want this love for real? How am I going to be happy with these real life men when there's Veer Pratap Singh, written by men.
