Koyla 1997 English Subtitles [UPDATED]

Rukmini, however, dreams of love and escape. She has seen a photograph of a handsome, gentle man in a magazine and fantasizes about meeting someone like him. A poor, honest, and strong-willed miner named Shankar (Shah Rukh Khan) works in Raja Saab’s mines. Shankar is kind-hearted but has a fiery temper when he witnesses injustice. One day, a photographer comes to town to take pictures of the miners. Shankar poses for a fun, carefree photo.

Meanwhile, Shankar survives the fall. Near death, he is found by a kind elderly woman and her grandson. Though blind, Shankar’s other senses become superhumanly sharp. He trains his body, learning to fight, move, and survive using only sound and touch. He becomes a fierce, vengeful warrior without sight. Months pass. One day, Shankar hears Rukmini’s voice carried on the wind. Using his enhanced hearing, he tracks her to the abandoned house. When they meet, Rukmini is shocked and overjoyed—Shankar is alive, but blinded because of her.

In a devastating twist, Raja Saab forces Shankar to sign a false confession that he seduced Rukmini before marriage. Then, to completely break her spirit, Raja Saab orders his men to burn Shankar’s eyes with hot coals () as punishment. Koyla 1997 English Subtitles

The next morning, Raja Saab reveals his true nature. He tells Rukmini that she is now Dushyant’s property and that he (Raja Saab) never intended for her to be happy. He mocks her love for the “photograph man.” When Rukmini screams that she will only love the man in the photo, Raja Saab brings out the real Shankar—bound, beaten, and forced to kneel before her.

By chance, Rukmini sees this photograph. Mistaking Shankar for the man in her dreams, she falls in love with his image. Her servant, (Johnny Lever), secretly shows the photo to Raja Saab, hoping to arrange a marriage. Rukmini, however, dreams of love and escape

Raja Saab sees an opportunity for a cruel joke. He brings Shankar to the palace, but Shankar is not allowed to speak or reveal his identity. Instead, Raja Saab pretends that a well-dressed, educated, but deceitful man named (Goga Kapoor’s son, played by a debutant) is the man in the photo. Rukmini is led to believe Dushyant is her dream man, and a marriage is quickly arranged. Part 3: The Wedding Night Horror On the wedding night, Rukmini realizes the horrible truth. Dushyant is not the man from the photo—he is a cruel, drunken brute. He attempts to force himself on her. Rukmini fights back and locks herself in a room.

Setting: A remote, rural mining town dominated by a coal mine and its tyrannical owner. Part 1: The Devil’s Kingdom The story introduces Raja Saab (Amrish Puri), a wealthy, ruthless, and sadistic coal mine owner. He rules the town and its impoverished workers like a feudal lord. He has a younger sister, Rukmini (Saloni Aswani), whom he claims to adore, but he treats her like a possession. Raja Saab has a twisted desire to keep her unmarried and under his complete control. Shankar is kind-hearted but has a fiery temper

Shankar is blinded permanently. Rukmini watches in horror, helpless. Raja Saab has Shankar thrown into a deep, abandoned coal mine pit to die. Rukmini is told he is dead. She is then locked away in a remote, dilapidated house on the edge of the mines, guarded by a loyal but scared old servant.

SPSS Statistics procedure to create an "ID" variable

In this section, we explain how to create an ID variable, ID, using the Compute Variable... procedure in SPSS Statistics. The following procedure will only work when you have set up your data in wide format where you have one case per row (i.e., your Data View has the same setup as our example, as explained in the note above):

  1. Click Transform > Compute Variable... on the main menu, as shown below:

    Note: Depending on your version of SPSS Statistics, you may not have the same options under the Transform menu as shown below, but all versions of SPSS Statistics include the same compute variable menu option that you will use to create an ID variable.

    You will be presented with the Compute Variable dialogue box, as shown below:
    'recode into different variables' dialogue box displayed

  2. Enter the name of the ID variable you want to create into the Target Variable: box. In our example, we have called this new variable, "ID", as shown below:
    ID variable entered into Target Variable box in top left

  3. Click on the change button and you will be presented with the Compute Variable: Type and Label dialogue box, as shown below:
    empty 'compute variable: type and label' dialogue box

    Published with written permission from SPSS Statistics, IBM Corporation.

  4. Enter a more descriptive label for your ID variable into the Label: box in the –Label– area (e.g., "Participant ID"), as shown below:
    participant ID entered in 'compute variable: type and label' dialogue box

    Note: You do not have to enter a label for your new ID variable, but we prefer to make sure we know what a variable is measuring (e.g., this is especially useful if working with larger data sets with lots of variables). Therefore, we entered the label, "Participant ID", into the Label: box. This will be the label entered in the label column in the Variable View of SPSS Statistics when you complete at the steps below.

  5. Click on the continue button. You will be returned to the Compute Variable dialogue box, as shown below:
    ID variable entered

  6. Enter the numeric expression, $CASENUM, into the Numeric Expression: box, as shown below:
    second category - '2' and '4' - entered

    Published with written permission from SPSS Statistics, IBM Corporation.

    7. Explanation: The numeric expression, $CASENUM, instructs SPSS Statistics to add a sequential number to each row of the Data View. Therefore, the sequential numbers start at "1" in row 1, then "2" in row 2, "3" in row 3, and so forth. The sequential numbers are added to each row of data in the Data View. Therefore, since we have 100 participants in our example, the sequential numbers go from "1" in row 1 through to "100" in row 100.

    Note: Instead of typing in $CASENUM, you can click on "All" in the Function group: box, followed by "$Casenum" from the options that then appear in the Functions and Special Variables: box. Finally, click on the up arrow button. The numeric expression, $CASENUM, will appear in the Numeric Expression: box.

  7. Click on the ok button and the new ID variable, ID, will have been added to our data set, as highlighted in the Data View window below:

If you look under the ID column in the Data View above, you can see that a sequential number has been added to each row, starting with "1" in row 1, then "2" in row 2, "3" in row 3, and so forth. Since we have 100 participants in our example, the sequential numbers go from "1" in row 1 through to "100" in row 100.

Therefore, participant 1 along row 1 had a VO2max of 55.79 ml/min/kg (i.e., in the cell under the vo2max column), was 27 years old (i.e., in the cell under the age column), weighed 70.47 kg (i.e., in the cell under the weight column), had an average heart rate of 150 (i.e., in the cell under the heart rate column) and was male (i.e., in the cell under the gender column).

The new variable, ID, will also now appear in the Variable View of SPSS Statistics, as highlighted below:

The name of the new variable, "ID" (i.e., under the name column), reflects the name you entered into the Target Variable: box of the Compute Variable dialogue box in Step 2 above. Similarly, the label of the new variable, "Participant ID" (i.e., under the label column), reflects the label you entered into the Label: box in the –Label– area in Step 4 above. You may also notice that we have made changes to the decimals, measure and role columns for our new variable, "ID". When the new variable is created, by default in SPSS Statistics the role column will be set to "2" (i.e., two decimal places), the measure will show scale and the role column will show input. We changed the number of decimal places in the decimals column from "2" to "0" because when you are creating an ID variable, this does not require any decimal places. Next, we changed the variable type from the default entered by SPSS Statistics, scale, to nominal, because our new ID variable is a nominal variable (i.e., a nominal variable) and not a continuous variable (i.e., not a scale variable). Finally, we changed the cell under the role from the default, input, to none, for the same reasons mentioned in the note above.
