around 11:30 PM, near airport I saw in sky something like a fire lamp, it was rising up,
and started to travel towards right side..., i thought it's balloon but speed seemed little faster than it
could not have been plane or helicopter due to fire type impression?
see attach pics, 2nd one is more clear
just wondering

Could be contrails. It is like a white trail plane leaves behind and looks like a flame in the dark.

Hi Soniya, yes i watched koi mil gaya and remember the story a lot bit, was years back,

no I am not a small kid who may have impact on mind, it was something real but was not UFO or something, most possibly balloon but it's just that I could not made it clear.

yesterday my daughter almost screened and rolled up car window at cornice saying UFO, when we looked it indeed looked like oen but was helicopter take part in celebration at cornice, it has these blinking red and green lights which does made it look bit strage from far :)

no idea, it was like a lamp, which give me the feeling could have been balloon, but at this time of night?

but than with in 10 minutes it flew over and moved pretty far away, which seems bit fast for balloon?
