Kaisa Ye Pyar Hai was an Indian romantic drama-series that aired on Sony TV, produced by Balaji Telefilms, starring as Angad Khanna and as Kripa Sharma. It is still remembered as the DDLJ of TV and remains to be a 'hot' fan favourite TV series. The story revolves around two core characters Angad and Kripa, who face many such challenges and obstacles in their way to unity and togetherness. A fraction of the story is based on the classic novel Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë. The story therefore focuses very strongly on the Byronic hero Angad, portrayed by Iqbal Khan, who presents the same flair, passion and vulnerability as Heathcliff. The show was an instant hit due to the sizzling chemistry between the two leading stars and has been re-aired on television through fan requests, multiple times.
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.
