Anu joins the Criminal Investigations Division of the Indian Police when her father is killed, and her mother is brutally assaulted by a woman named Sonu. She meets a wealthy male named Saajan, who she is attracted to, and who also finds her interesting, but at the same time is seeing another woman. Anu does not know that Saajan leads a double life. Anu finds out that it was one Bhawani Singh who had killed her father, and she does come across such an individual, and takes him home for her mother to identify. But her mother does not identify him, instead chastises Anu for wasting their time. Then their world is turned upside down when Anu's mom is abducted by Bhawani and Sonu, the very woman who had assaulted her, and this time she and Bhawani will ensure that she does not live to tell the tale.
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.
