the song. Gurdas Maan recalled his cameo in Veer-Zaara saying, "The film ‘Veer-Zaara’ and the songs ‘Aisa Des Hai Mera’ and ‘Lohri’ are very close to my heart. One of my fondest
memories is how it all came together. At the time, I was shooting for Des Hoya Pardes in Chandigarh, and Veer-Zaara was also being filmed. Yash Ji and I were staying in the same hotel."

were about to shoot the song ‘Aisa Des hai Mera’ and since I was there, and I had lent my voice to the song, why not appear in it as well? That’s when I paused my own film shoot (Des Hoyaa
Pardes) and joined the shoot for ‘Veer-Zaara’. It was such a beautiful moment to be part of a song that represents our country’s soul." Veer-Zaara is set to re-release in theatres on
13th September, nearly 20 years after its original release. The film is remembered for its heartwarming songs and the timeless love story. On the professional front, Gurdas Maan has just
