Bipasha BAsu and Kunal Kapoor

Bonding with kashmir Sanjay dut,, Bipasha BAsu and Kunal Kapoor have come back with stories from the beautiful valley       Sanjay Dutt has formed a strong bond with Kashmir. He had shot his first film rocky  there and now after three decades, PVR Pictures and GS Entertainment's LAmhaa took him back to the valley.The actor says his Kashmiri wife Maanyata has strengthened his bond with the place even more. "Everything about Kashmir has always fascinated me right from my childhood and now being married to a Kashmiri, draws me closer to the valley." said the actor, who plays the main protagonist of the film which tells the story of real people living in a war ridden state but who spread the message of peace and harmoney.       If Sanjay could identify with the place, Bipasha Basu could relate to her character a strong willed, fiety woman named Aziza who's a revolutionary. But Bips had a hurdls e to overcome. "Initially, I was not sure whether I could fit the role of a Kashmiri girl because I have a Bengali face. But after director Rahul Dholakia showed me pictures of present day kashmiri women - the way they cover their heads, the attire they wear - I  was certain that I could play the role. I am an actress, my job is to get into the skin of the character," said Bips, who had many sessions with designer Rocky S to get the perfect look.        "Rahul and the Director of Photography, jamie, were clear of what colours and tones they wanted to see on me. They wanted a simple, no make-up look with minimal eye make-up and just a thin line of kajal to be used. Whenyou watch the film, you will be seeing Aziza and not Bipasha. I have donned various looks for my films, but this simple look is one of my fanovrites." she said.         kunal kapoor went through some trying times too while shooting for Lamhaa. "This was my first experience shooting in Kashmir, and though the circumstances were difficult, my character in the film was so challenging, that it seemed effortless." Lamhaa will always remin etched in his ences draw a connect with what Kashmi is going through today." Lamhaa hits the actors today.
