When the task of shooting in Kashmir is increasingly getting difficult, Just think of the feelings of pleasure and relief going to be experienced by film maker Rahul Dholakia once the production of his ambitious flick 'Lamha' gets completely over.

The acclaimed director might have surely expected to face some kind of problem or the other during the shooting of 'Lamha' in Kashmir. But he may have never imagined the scale to which the problems can escalate as it is happening now.

After the numerous interferences by the local population during the canning of the movie in various parts of the tension filled place, the leading lady of the film has now suddenly packed up her bags and dashed off.

Bips was appreciated when she gave her consent to be part of 'Lamha' as the other heroines who were first approached to play the role declined it citing the atmosphere of fear and violence prevailing in the state.

But the strong minded beauty on experiencing some unpleasant situations and the problems created by the crowds could not pull it off.

The main issue being put out by the bong babe is of safety and security in Kashmir as people are very suspicious of the nature of the movie and whether the film will portray the state in a bad light.

Which ever place the unit sets ups their equipments and starts shooting, the people assemble in such large numbers that it starts becoming impossible to control them.

Once due to some doubts the people even stopped the shooting of a particular scene having Bipasha.

One day the actress saw that her security team had just vanished as a huge crowd was getting out of control.

All the happenings scared Bipasha and she took the decision of returning back from Srinagar.
