She started her career as a model and then went on to host a music countdown show Pepsi Top Ten on Asianet.  Poornima, born on December 13, is an Indian actress and television presenter primarily working in Malayalam cinema. Born into a Tamil family settled in Kerala, she is the daughter of Mohan and Shanthi. Her mother tongue is Tamil, and her father practices law while her mother runs a dance school. Poornima has a younger sister, Priya Mohan, also an actress.  Married to actor Indrajith Sukumaran, Poornima has two daughters, including singer Prarthana Indrajith. She is the daughter-in-law of the late Sukumaran and Mallika Sukumaran, and her brother-in-law is Prithviraj Sukumaran.  Poornima began her career as a model and ventured into acting with the successful Tamil TV serial "Kolangal." Subsequently, she appeared in various Malayalam TV serials. Transitioning to the big screen, she took on supporting roles in films like "Meghamalhar" (2001), "Valliettan" (2000), and "Randam Bhavam" (2001).  After a 17-year hiatus, Poornima made a remarkable comeback with "Virus," a film recognized among The Hindu's top 25 Malayalam films of the decade.

About the Movie Section

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:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

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.
