"Veer Zaara", a cross-border love story starring Shah Rukh Khan and Preity Zinta, will be specially screened for over 300 Pakistanis when they visit Punjab early next month.

The film will be shown at Phool cinema hall in Patiala city when the Pakistani guests go there for the World Punjabi Conference and the Indo-Pakistan Punjab Games.

The conference is from Dec 1 to 3 while the Games will take place during Dec 8-13.

The film - directed by leading Bollywood filmmaker Yash Chopra and extensively shot in Punjab - is about an Indian Air Force officer and his love for a Pakistani girl.

Shah Rukh, Preity and Rani Mukherjee, who plays a lawyer who reunites the two lovers in the film, would be specially flown to Patiala for the event, Chopra said here.

Chopra agreed for the special screening at the request of the Punjab government that is hosting both the India-Pakistan events. The Punjab government has given tax exemption for screening of "Veer Zaara" in the state.
