Hello Friends,
I am new to Drupal development and am looking to start with developing a media related website which focuses on movies and its related events.
Below are the few points about the website I wish to develop
- Template having 3 columns, occupying page 60%, 20%, 20%
- Should have an interface to enter data as admin - movie details, song details, etc
- Latest movies, events should be on first page
- Movie News on Second Column
- Artist Birthday's, Event details on Third Column
Looking forward for your guidance.
Thank you.

Hello Bhaskar,
Welcome to Drupal Development.
Regarding your Project requirement
1) Start with selecting a theme for your requirements. I think any responsive theme would suffice your need.
2) Content types are permission based. So, you can deal with them easily.
3)Try to play with views it will get most of the features you require.

Can I maintain relationships like in RDBMS tables using Content Type? The reason being, a movie will have many artists, at the same time this will have events like audio function, success meet etc. I was wondering how to link these in Drupal?

Dear Bhaskar
Firstly, I would recommend you to list the process of adding "movie details, song details, etc"
e.g
1. Movies: Do you want to add images, video clips related to movie, rankings, reviews, ratings and comments for each movie or not.
Secondly, you must choose respnsive themes available online. I would recommend https://www.drupal.org/project/pixture_reloaded for responsive and multi column layout for your website.
And then you can choose the type of user interaction on your site like login and registration, social connectivity etc.
