Lamhaa is a Bollywood thriller written and directed by Rahul Dholakia. Set in Kashmir, the film stars Sanjay Dutt as intelligence officer Vikram and his love interest Aziza played by Bipashu Basu, as well as Anupam Kher and Kunal Kapoor in supporting roles. Lamhaa is an epic portrayal of the corruption and political issues that have plagued Kashmir for years. Kashmir, which was once regarded as a paradise-like place, is now a war ground for corruption and lies. It becomes apparent that a suspicious company is generating millions of dollars that is benefiting the likes of politicians and leaders in the Indian and Pakistani social systems.
When the Military Intelligence hears of a plot that is likely to plunge Kashmir into a deeper state of disruption, intelligence officer Vikram is sent to investigate. The day Vikram lands in the Valley where he is set to start working, a top separatist leader named Haji survives a bomb attack. As Vikram begins to piece the puzzle together, he starts to believe the two events are linked.
Vikram gets help from Haji's co-worker Aziza and together the two embark upon a journey to find the truth. Along the way, as is often the case, they encounter corruption and violence. The intensity of their passion for the truth creates a bond between Aziza and Vikram who fall in love along the path of their mission for justice. For the movie, Actress Bipashu Basu had to lose her English accent and brush up on her Urdu. "It is really tough because I don't really understand Urdu. But I'm never one to shun the urge to learn. I think it’s great fun. And my director, Rahul Dholakia, is very patient and chilled out," Bipasha told Hindustan Times.
