In 2020, on Veer's 10th anniversary, Zareen took to her Instagram to share a loing note, She expressed, "Today marks 10years of Veer. Can’t believe I’ve been a part of this industry for a decade. Time really flies. These 10years have definitely been a roller coaster ride. There hav been several ups & downs , goods & bads , rejections etc but I’ve taken everything as a learning experience."

She added, "A lot of people struggle to become a part of this film industry , I was lucky enough to get an entry so easily, esp. when I’d never thought or had any dreams of becoming a part of it. My struggle started after I became a part of this industry. I was like a lost child in the initial days really trying to understand how it all works. I did not even know where the camera was when I gave my very first shot for Veer."

"At the end of 10yrs , I hav done Hindi , Punjabi , Telugu films and now gonna debut on the small screen with Jeep Bollywood Trails which is a travel show. I’m proud of everything that I’ve been able to achieve so far. These 10years have taught me a lot but its not that I’m a pro now and understand everything about the workings of this industry, I still have a lot to learn.

I want to thank each and everyone of you for giving me so much love and support. It’s only bcoz of all the love and support you all have given me in this journey of mine , that I could come so far and survived it all. Please keep it coming so that I can go a long way", she mentioned. 

"A special thank you to @beingsalmankhan . If it wasn’t for you, I Dnt think I’d ever be a part of this industry. You changed my life 360 degrees in a way I’d never imagined and for that I’m gonna be forever grateful. Lots of love to all of you! Yours truly, Zareen Khan", the actress concluded.
