Shankar is a self-starter who is scorned and expelled from the family by his virago stepmother. However, he well-earns with his hard work and lives buoyant with his wife Sona and a child Munna. By this time, his heinous stepbrothers Narendra Singh, Roop, & Pardhu spoil their share. So, they plot to grab Shankar's property and heir a malign Sher Singh to eliminate him, and he announces him as dead. Knowing it, Sona attempts suicide when she is rescued by an altruistic Ravi. At last, Shankar & Ravi cease them when Ravi is severely injured while guarding Munna. Finally, the movie ends with Ravi leaving his breath reuniting Shankar & Sona.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
