          Suffering of Love
          I watched this movie about 10 years ago with portuguese subtitles. It was called 'Sofrimento de Amor'- 'Suffering of Love', and I really struggled to find it on the IMDB. The story is a real tearjerker. Prem and Preeti are in love. Her father destroys the relationship by maliciously lying to Prem. Prem goes away thinking it's for the best. Meanwhile Preeti is pregnant and has his child. You meet the boy when he is about 10 years old. He is a cripple and befriends Prem without knowing he is his father. The songs in this movie are fantastic and the ending is brilliant.
