Mr. Appaji Ambarisha Darbha, a creative digital-media professional turned actor was born in the quaint town of Samalkot in East Godavari district of Andhra Pradesh in 1965. His illustrious parents Mr. Ramsha Darbha and Mrs. Siriesha Darbha were both amateur actors and the pioneers of the well-noted and largely-circulated magazine, 'Abhisarika'. Appaji Ambarisha forayed into advertising and digital media at an early age, following his professional passion and proclivity. He worked on many innovative technologies in printing and publishing domain in a career spanning nearly three and a half decades. He has also conceptualized various designs and Unicode fonts compatible with contemporary software, especially in Telugu and Kannada for Google, and made his mark as a graphic designer par excellence, working for distinguished advertising firms in the states of Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Karnataka. After a highly satisfying career in his chosen profession, he gave in to his personal passion, acting, in 2011, as the protagonist's father for a commercial of 'Priya Foods-Snack Magic'. His acting career, amply supported by his wife, Dr. Sudharani Miriyala, son DSV Ramsha and daughter-in-law Krishna Manjusha, took a natural progression towards short films when he debuted in the very popular 'Apparao Gari Abbayi' as the lead character Apparao. Till date, he has made his appearance in well received films and also short films such as 'Aa Nishi Lo' and 'Apparao Gari Pichi'. His latest short film 'Krishnamurthy Garintlo' went on to win many accolades and awards and has brought the fine actor in him the much deserved appreciation from audiences and critics alike.

The Search Form


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.
