All About Hamaare Barah

1997 film further depicts that  Sharda and Vinod love each other, but Sharda's gangster brother does not accept their union and gets Vinod killed. Sharda flees but returns after 20 years for vengeance.

The film has been examined at several levels by an eight-member committee. Some amendments were suggested by the committee, which have been followed.
