Balmaa is a 1993 Bollywood film directed by Lawrence D'Souza. The film starred Avinash Wadhavan, Ayesha Jhulka, Saeed Jaffrey and Anjana Mumtaz. Balma is a not proper Hindi word, but in India people often use the word balma to describe the life partner; i.e. wife, better half.

Cast

At the end of the movie Dil Ka Kya Kasoor, Seema, the young daughter of Arun and Meena, writes a poem that goes: "Agar zindagi ho tere sang ho, Agar maut ho toh woh ho tujhse pahle..." (Translation: If I have to live my life I will live it only with you, If I have to die I will die before you.)

This poem features in a song for the film Balmaa (1993) that was made one year later. Coincidentally, Lawrence D'Souza is the director for both Dil Ka Kya kasoor (1992) and Balmaa (1993).

Soundtrack

The music was composed by Nadeem Shravan and the lyrics by Sameer Anjaan.
