Lamhaa is a Bollywood action thriller film written and directed by Rahul Dholakia, released on 16 July 2010. Set in Kashmir, the film is a story about an army officer, played by Sanjay Dutt, and his love interest, played by Bipasha Basu, in the midst of the various issues that Kashmir had faced over the years. It also features Anupam Kher and Kunal Kapoor in supporting roles.
International viewer reviews describe it as an below average Bollywood crime drama served in the name of Kashmir.Although the movie to a certain extent manages to describe the hard life & sufferings faced by Indians in Kashmir due to its proximity to the LOC & the affect of Violent Extremists & Separatists,it has failed to show the true picture/the realty of kashmir & its issues.The Movie also seems to neglect the Good part of Kashmir which is very beautiful , blossming with love & Affection & attracts many Tourists to this heavenly place on earth.
But for those who have taste for a little bit of action,secrecy & Conspiracies,the movie is worth watching.
