Production
Yash Chopra returned to directing after seven years, his last directed film being Dil To Pagal Hai. The film was originally going to be called Yeh Kahan Aa Gaye Hum, a name taken from the title of a song in the movie Silsila (1981). Chopra, eventually decided on Veer-Zaara as a title. However, one of the songs in the film is called "Yeh Hum Aa Gaye Hain Kahan", a twist on the proposed title.
Veer Zaara was Chopra's third consecutive film to feature Shahrukh Khan in the lead role. Originally, Chopra had intended Aishwarya Rai to play the role of Saamiya Siddiqui, however Rai declined and the role was given to Rani Mukerji.
