Ya there were some minor flaws but it was plausible. But then which movie is foolproof. If we sit and analyse a so-called great film we'll find some or the other blunder. Even the epic romantic movie "Titanic" had some flaws.

As per Katrina being over religious in the film, what is so surprising in it? I have seen many people who are like that(my mom and my best friend being the one). The main idea of the film was that "Instead of having fear of god one should have faith in love".

I get that but im just saying thats the reason the movie is getting flak for . I mean the reason for Meera and Samar being away from each other shouldve been something more than that for the audience to feel somethign for them. We understood the reason why Veer and Zara couldnt be one but in this case that reason wasnt valid enough. Dont get me wrong i liked the because of SRK only but the script was not there.

Two Problems apart from honest criticism.

SRK & Katrina - two most hated superstars. 60% trashing of the film started from these two names only. Seriously.

I understood 😊

And two side will always be there.

But some find her relationship with God offensive. So how can that be termed as simply trashing?

I personally don't believe that a relationship with God can be that simple and drawn out.

and in that case... the whole movie kinda contradicts Katrina's initial belief, but since elaborating that would be a spoiler, I will can it

That's what I've been saying since Part 1 of this discussion thread. The reason for Samar and Meera' seperation made it hard for me to feel for the characters. I didn't like Meera's logic of how she perceived God as selfish in the sense that she thought he had to take something away from her in order for her to be granted something in return.

See...thats why this movie is so polarising...anytime any movie is based on a character's relationship with God...the audience is divided...Faith is abstract...I can not really visualize how u see God and vice versa...in Veer Zara...it was very tangible...so the audience got the concept...the more abstract the concept ...the more difficult it is for the audience to grasp...and thats why we see the backlash...after reading everything ...i know that this movie will make sense to me..
