Life is full of moments…some remembered with affection & reverence…while memories of some moments just never leave you however much you may try to forget them. Lamhe means such moments, each with a beauty of it’s own. Yes, I’m of the opinion that like happiness, pain also has it’s own significance. After all, u’d never realize the value of a smile if there were no tears
