Usage

Simple Mode — Search and Download

1. Run the script: python ragalahari_dl.py
2. Select Simple Mode (option 2)
3. Choose Search & Download (option 1)
4. Type an actor/actress name (e.g., Kajal)
5. Select the actor from results
6. Pick a gallery and confirm download

Latest Galleries

1. Select Latest Galleries (option 1) from main menu
2. Browse the latest galleries
3. Pick one or select multiple with ranges

Batch Download (Advanced Mode)

1. Select Advanced Mode (option 3)
2. Choose Batch Download Galleries (option 1)
3. Search for an actor
4. Use range syntax to select galleries:

  Select gallery(s) > 1-50        # galleries 1 through 50
  Select gallery(s) > 3,5,7,12    # specific galleries
  Select gallery(s) > 1-10,15-20  # mixed ranges
  Select gallery(s) > all         # everything

Direct URL Download

If you already have a gallery URL:

# Simple Mode > Paste Gallery URL (option 2)
# Paste: https://www.ragalahari.com/actress/172760/gallery-name.aspx

Browse by Category

Advanced Mode lets you browse:

• Latest Galleries
• Actress Galleries
• Events & Functions
• Exclusive Shoots
• Movie Stills
• Movie Posters

Configuration

Access settings from Advanced Mode > Settings (option 6):

Setting	Default	Description
Download folder	./downloads	Where images are saved
Parallel threads	5	Concurrent download threads (1-20)
Page delay	0.5s	Delay between page fetches

Images are saved in: downloads/<ActorName>/<GalleryName>/

How It Works

1. Search: Loads the alphabetical star index, navigates to the correct letter page, and filters actors by name
2. Gallery listing: Parses the actor's profile page for all gallery links with numeric IDs
3. Image extraction: Finds thumbnail images inside <div id="galdiv"> and converts thumbnail URLs to full-size by removing the t suffix (e.g., image1t.jpg → image1.jpg)
4. Pagination: Detects multi-page galleries via <td id="pagingCell"> navigation links
5. Download: Parallel threaded downloads with retry logic, size validation, and duplicate detection
