Lamhe (1991): Review: Excerpt: Sridevi's brilliance cannot be denied!

From an online review of Lamhe (1991):

"It must be said, however, that all of these exceptional performances are given to balance the duality of Sridevi's brilliance: she is literally awe-inspiring in a double role which transcends anything India has ever put on the big screen. The mother-daughter characters are inverse reflections of one another, and are played in such distinct fashion that one never feels one character intruding into the other, a perennial fear of actors playing multiple roles in one film. One prominent reviewer probably said it best in her review: "Sridevi does not enact a performance in 'Lamhe'. She becomes an incarnation of two women whose lives (and deaths) are bound by the nature of Love. Sridevi has pushed the limits of acting with 'Lamhe', and like the film, she has decided that there are no limits...."

Some rare, beautiful images of the cast of Lamhe; Sridevi, Anil Kapoor, Deepak Malhotra, Anupam Kher and Waheeda Rehman.
