She soon recruits her doting grandmother (Rahul's mother, played by Farida Jalal) and grandfather (Tina's father, played by Anupam Kher) as accomplices.

8. Hey Ram is a contreversial Indian Film released both in Tamil and Hindi in 2000 and written, directed, produced by and starring Kamal Haasan. A period drama told in flashback, the semi-fictional plot centres around India's Partition and the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi. The film was a box office failure in India but when released the film was a blockbuster at worldwide (in part to numerous bans by local distributors leery of its heavy-hitting themes),and garnered positive reviews from critics who praised its performances and technical prowess, but steered clear of voicing an opinion on its artistic content. This film was sent as the Oscar nomination of the year for the category 'Best Foreign Language Film'. The movie begins at present day with Saket Ram (Kamal Hassan), an 89-year-old South Indian Brahmin who is dying. The scene reverts to the past as Saket remembers the 1940s, when he and his good friend, Amjad Ali Khan (Shahrukh Khan) were archaeologists working together under their boss, Mortimer Wheeler in Mohenjo-daro (Indus Valley Civilization) in Karachi. Relations are pleasant between the Indians and the English, and Saket and Amjad do not approve of Partition and the creation of Pakistan. Aparna Ram (Rani MUkherjee), Saket's simple Bengali wife, is a school teacher. She lives in Calcutta in the midst of riots and chaos over the issue of the formation of Pakistan and the call by Mohammad Ali Jinnah for "Direct Action". Saket goes to Calcutta and is swept into the madness. In one instance, Saket saves an innocent Sikh girl from the hands of a barbaric Muslim gang. When he returns to his house, he finds a group of Muslims entering his house. They brutally rape and murder Aparna. Saket, unable to cope with his tragic loss, kills the Muslims who raped and killed his wife in a fit of rage. Outside his house, he runs into another Brahmin, Sriram Abhyankar (Atul KUlkarni), who is part of a Hindu militant group determined to fight the Muslims' malice with similar brute force, and assassinate Gandhi for what they perceive to be his treachery towards Hindu dominated India (Gandhi wanted Hindus and Muslims to co-exist peacefully with hope of winning over the hearts of the rioters through sheer self-pity). However, Abhyankar and his fellow extremists had lost patience at what they deemed Mahatma Gandhi's unreasonable stand to appease Pakistan, who had already invaded Kashmir by that time. Gandhi was pressuring the newly founded Indian State to pay Rs. 62 Crore to Pakistan and some territorial concessions as well. Urged by family to remarry, he weds Mythili (Vasundhara Das). However, on a trip to Maharashtra, he reunites with Abhyankar and becomes a part of his militant organisation that plots to do away with Gandhi. Due to an horse-riding accident, Abhyankar is left a quadriplegic and has Ram swear that he will carry on his work, that of killing the Mahatma. Saket comes to the belief that Mahatma Gandhi (Naseeruddin Shah) is solely responsible for the division of India and of the two religions and also of having supported whom they viewed as the enemy. Hindu fundamentalists, including Saket, are furious and plot to murder Gandhi. However, Saket, after several incidents surrounding and leading to Amjad's death (with whom he reunites briefly in a congested Delhi area), changes his mind about Gandhi. He decides against assassinating the leader, and attempts to beg for forgiveness. Soon afterwards, Gandhi is killed by another assassin, Nahuram Godse. Ironically, Gandhi dies without his famous last words: "Hey Ram!" as popularly believed, and as in Richard Attenborough's film Gandhi (Film). Then on, Saket Ram lives by Gandhian principles. As the 89-year-old Saket Ram is being taken to the hospital, he is told of bomb blasts in the city due to Hindu-Muslim communal riots. He asks "Innuma(even still)?". They were forced by the police to be taken into an underground shelter for their security, but Saket Ram dies there. In his funeral,Gandhiji's grandson comes and sees Saket's private room which is full of historical photos. Saket's grandson hands over Gandhi's footwear and spectacle which Saket had previously collected from the place of shootout and had treasured it all the while.

The narrative begins by showing Zaara Haayat Khan (Preity Zinta), an independent, carefree, and sprightly young Pakistani girl travelling to India. She is on her way to India with the ashes of her Sikh governess Bebe (a Punjabi word to denote mother or grandmother, but here used for Zaara's old governess). Before dying, Bebe (Zohra Sehgal) begs Zaara to fulfill her final wish - to take her ashes to India, to the holy Sikh city of Kiritpur, and scatter them in the river, among her ancestors. Zaara decides to carry out Bebe's dying wish.

On reaching Pakistan, Zaara realizes that she deep feelings for Veer, but that it is her duty to keep her family's honor and marry her fiancé, a wedding that will further her father's political career. But Zaara starts to see Veer's face everywhere and finally tells her mother that she has fallen in love with Veer.

Veer who had told Zaara that he would give up his life for her, quits the Indian Air Force and goes to Pakistan to bring her back with him to India. Zaara's mother, Mariam Hayaat Khan (Kirron Kher), however, begs him to leave Zaara as Zaara's father, Jahangir Hayaat Khan (Boman Irani) is a high-profile politician whose reputation, and health, will be ruined if news gets out that his daughter is in love with an Indian.

Veer opens up to Saamiya and tells her that she can do anything for fighting his case except mention, much less subpoena, Zaara's family. The number 786 is considered to be a holy number in Islam, this convinces Saamiya that God has chosen Veer for some special purpose, and she becomes even more determined to exonerate him, restore his name and identity, and return him to his country. After the prosecution presents it case, Saamiya realizes she must cross the boarder and find someone in Veer's village who can prove Veer's true identity. There, Saamiya meets Zaara- who had fled to India and has taken over running the girl's school after the deaths of Veer's parents, she has thought that Veer died on his bus that ran off a cliff, killing everyone on its way to India.

26. Black is a 2005 Indian film in Hindi and Indian English directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Blackgirl, and her relationship with her teacher who himself later develops Alzheimer's disease. The story of Black is partly based on the true life story of Helen Keller. The film begins with Michelle McNally (Rani Mukherjee), a blind and deaf woman, visiting her former teacher Debraj Sahai (Amitabh Bachchan), who now has Alzheimer's disease, in a hospital. The film then flashbacks to the past to her childhood. Michelle was a girl who lost her eyesight and hearing a few months after birth and exists in a black world where she is isolated in the darkness of her own existence, trapped by her inability to see, hear and express. She grows up becoming more and more frustrated by the black and dark world around her, making her a violent, uncontrollable eight-year old child. Her parents, Paul and Catherine, are at their wits' end trying to control her, until one day the light shines through the end of the tunnel. Debraj Sahai enters their lives, an elderly alcoholic teacher for the deaf and blind, Debraj sees himself as a magician and is a disillusioned eccentric man. He takes it upon himself to bring young Michelle into the light. He uses harsh methods, although always for Michelle's long-term benefit. Initially, his methods are met with disapproval by Michelle's father, who asks Debraj to leave. Although her father thinks he is gone, Debraj stays as the teacher while her father is away on business for 20 days. Her mother grudgingly approves of his continuation given her fear of Michelle being sent to an asylum. By the 20th day, Debraj manages to teach Michelle some words and better manners, but he has difficulty teaching her the meaning of words. When Michelle's father returns, Debraj packs his bags. At the very last moment, as he is walking towards the door suitcase in hand, Debraj gets frustrated with Michelle's continuing insolent behavior and he throws her into a fountain full of water. Michelle suddenly takes to Debraj's lessons at that moment and begins to understand meaning. She is able to recognize her mother and father, and can vocalize the first syllables of some words. The McNallys decide to keep Debraj as Michelle's teacher. Many years later, Michelle has learned a great deal, becoming relaxed and expressive, and she is even able to dance and expertly sign. Debraj convinces the Principal of a university to grant her an interview which she passes and gets admission to pursue a Bachelor's of Arts, the first deaf-blind person to do so at that university. Michelle moves away from home and lives with Debraj and one of her servants. Over the next 20 years, she struggles to gain her Bachelor of Arts degree, failing year after year, but she still maintains her spirit. One reason is that she must rely on Debraj completely for interpretation of the material and studying. This problem is overcome by the Principal of the school preparing the whole first-year Arts course of study in Braille. Another reason for her continuing failure is that her typing skills are lacking and typing is her only way to write down what she knows during exams. However, she also soon overcomes this deficiency through another flash of increased of competence when she almost quits the university and gets into an argument with Debraj. As the same time as Michelle suffers through and triumphs over her challenges, we also witness numerous other changes. Debraj begins to succumb to Alzheimer's, first forgetting the way out of the Principal's office and then forgetting Michelle and leaving her stranded during an ice cream celebration for her improved typing. We also see Michelle reconcile with her sister Sara, who we find out was jealous of her parent's affection for Michelle throughout her life. After attending Sara's wedding, Michelle begins to wonder about love, which she has not experienced, and she even asks Debraj to kiss her on the lips. Debraj reluctantly does so but decides to leave Michelle on her own because of this demand and the position she has put him in. Twenty years after enrollment, Michelle does manage to gain her BA, and with her proud parents looking on her, she even gives a speech to the graduating class. Wearing no black graduation robe, she thanks her parents and her teacher and she announces that she will only wear the robe so that her teacher may see her first. Debraj is in a mental hospital due to his almost complete inability to remember his past and even how to speak. Michelle visits him wearing her robe and we see glimmers of memory return as Debraj realizes that she has graduated and even does a victory dance. As the window opens to the rain outside, we see Debraj's hand in Michelle's reaching into the rain, and we hear the teacher-student pair say the first syllable of the word "water", with echoes of the scene in which Michelle first begins understanding the meaning of words earlier in the movie. However this time, it is Debraj who is beginning to learn to speak and understand. The movie ends on a hopeful note as Michelle who was originally the student now becomes aged Debraj's teacher. revolves around a blind and deaf

It is directed by Ketan Mehta,Aamir Khan plays the lead role of Mangal Pandey who was a sepoy whose actions helped spark the Indian rebellion of 1857, when India was ruled by the British East India Company. Mangal Pandey is a soldier of Indian origin, in the army of the East India Company. Pandey is fighting in the Anglo-Afgan Wars and saves the life of his British commanding officer, William Gordon (portrayed by Toby Stephens). Gordon is indebted to Pandey and a strong friendship develops between them, transcending both rank and race. Gordon rescues a young widow, Jwala (Ameesha Patel), from committing Sati (the act of following her deceased husband on to the funeral pyre). Afterwards, he falls in love with her. Meanwhile, Heera (Rani Mukherjee) has been sold into prostitution, to work for Lol Bibi (Kirron Kher). There is a spark of attraction between her and Pandey and a liaison follows. Gordon and Pandey's friendship is challenged following the introduction of a new rifle, the Enfield rifled musket. In reality as in the film, rumors began to spread among the sepoys that the paper cartridges that held the powder and ball for the rifle were greased with either pig fat or beef tallow. Since the process of loading the cartridge required the soldier to bite the cartridge open to pour in the loose powder, the soldiers believed that the process would require them to consume pork or beef - an act abhorrent concept to Muslim and Hindu soldiers, respectively, for religious reasons. In the film, Gordon investigates, and is told to assure Pandey that the cartridges are free from pollution. Demonstrating his total trust in Gordon, Mangal bites the cartridge. But Pandey soon discovers that the cartridges really are greased by animal fat. The rumour of this imposed pollution is the spark that ignites the powder keg of resentment in the country. Mutiny breaks out, led by Pandey. At one point Pandey and Gordon become involved in direct hand-to-hand combat as the latter tries to dissuade the sepoy from what he believes to be a futile exercise that will lead to only death. Pandey is captured and executed, despite the protestations of Gordon, who reasons that Pandey will be revered as a martyr and that his legacy will cause more uprising. This turns out to be correct, as the film closes to scenes of nationwide revolt against British rule. The film ends with a montage of drawings of the historical rebellion and the narrator describes the progress of the Indian independence movement over the next century. The montage ends with documentary footage of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi leading the Indian National Congress during peaceful protests against British rule in the 1940s, eventually forcing an end to colonialism in the subcontinent. produced by Bobby Bedi, and with a screenplay by Farrukh Dhondy.

The child artistes include Akshat Chopra, Shriya Sharma, Rachit Sidana and Ayushi Berman. Directed, written and co-produced by Kunal Kohli, the film is produced and distributed by Aditya Chopra under Yash Raj Films. At the beginning of the film, Ranbeer (Saif Ali Khan a leading industrialist in India, is lonely because he has lost everyone who is dear to him. Out his own inattention, he mistakenly kills a husband and wife in an accident, whereupon the judge appointed to decide his position according to law sentences him to look after their four children, and to do so without ill-treating them or distancing them from himself. Because the children resent Ranbeer for his role in their parents' death, they desire revenge, whereas he is unprepared to co-operate with them, so that all of the people concerned are miserable. One day, the children pray to God (Rishi Kapoor) for help, whereupon viewers see a scene of God 'conducting' a morning sky and later discussing the activities of humans with a small number of fairylike, white-clad female angels. Here, God is presented as a good-natured, omniscient figure whose motives remain unclear but are implied to be wise. When the children's prayer becomes a subject of conversation, God decides to send Geeta (Rani Mukherjee), His favorite and the most whimsical of the angels, to unite Ranbeer with the children. This is a cause of dismay among the other angels, who perceive Geeta as irresponsible and envy God's favoritism of her. Despite their advice, God sends Geeta, warning that she is ordered not to use her ability to alter reality during her time on Earth. Geeta ignores this warning immediately and continues to use this ability throughout most of the film, providing comic relief. On Earth, Geeta appoints herself as the children's governess, surprising Ranbeer, and places the children in awe of her by use of her transformative powers. Later, she becomes ingratiated with the children by a combination of these powers with supportive affection, a compassionate but firm establishment of social structure, and positive regard. As a result, they begin to cherish her and depend on her for their emotional strength. Ranbeer remains perplexed and overwhelmed by her dominance of his affairs; but soon becomes enamored of her, despite the interference presented by his girlfriend Malaika (Ameesha Patel). Ranbeer's affair with Malaika is eventually terminated when the children spoil a party she is hosting. Later, Ranbeer and the children slowly become friends, with the eventual result that they gradually forsake their desire for revenge and treat him as they would an elder brother while he subconsciously assumes the role of father-figure. This development climaxes during their visit to California, wherein Ranbeer's American colleague insults the children, provoking Ranbeer to defend them. Also during this visit, the children perceive Ranbeer's growing attachment to Geeta and attempt to encourage it. Ultimately, Geeta becomes frightened by her reciprocation of Ranbeer's desires and flees, hoping to return to Heaven. Reacting to this, Ranbeer and the children go to a church to pray that she return to them. Simultaneously, God visits Geeta and converses with her on the subject of her new attachments and the question of whether she will remain on Earth as a part of their newly-formed family. Conceding to her wishes, God changes Geeta into a human and allows her return to the children. Thereafter Geeta marries Ranbeer and gives birth to a daughter, who is shown to have inherited the ability to alter reality, despite Geeta's loss of her own. This concludes the film.

40. No One Killed Jessica is a 2011 Hindi film starring Rani Mukerji and Vidya Balan, produced by UTV Spotboy and directed by Raj Kumar Gupta. The film has music by Amit Trivedi. Vidya Balan plays the character of Jessica’s elder sister, Sabrina Lal, Rani is set to play a reporter. Upon release, the film met with positive critical and box office reception. The political thriller, set in New Delhi, is based on the media coverage of the controversial Jessica Lal muder case. The director clarified that the title and the script are actually inspired by a headline carried out by The Times of India in 2006, when the accused in the infamous murder case were acquitted by the lower courts, leading to nationwide protests, reopening of the case and subsequent sentencing of the accused, and not the case per se. The film, No One Killed Jessica is based on the true story of Jessica Lal, a Delhi-based model, who was shot in 1999 at a New Delhi restaurant by Manish Bhardwaj, alias Manu, the son of an influential Haryana politician. Jessica, along with actor and model Vikram Jai Singh, was closing the restaurant's bar for the evening when approached by Manu and two friends. Infuriated by Jessica's refusal to serve them drinks after the bar closed, Manu fatally shoots Jessica. The powerful family connections of the accused intimidated witnesses. It then became an uneven battle between Jessica’s family, especially her sister Sabrina and the politically-backed and influential family of the accused.
In February 2006, the court acquitted Manu and other accused due to lack of sufficient evidence setting off a public outcry and widespread protests. The backlash from the initial acquittal forced the re-opening of the investigation. In December 2006, Manu was found guilty and sentenced to life imprisonment.
