IMDB Website Link for the movie, youtube website link for the movie added to the article, so please remove the deletion tag. Alangar Manickam (talk) 18:01, 9 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Alangar Manickam you need to familiarize yourself with WP:RS and WP:RSP because none of those and I really do mean none - are relaible, much less can they establish notability. PRAXIDICAE🌈 18:02, 9 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If you don't consider IMDB, Youtube, Amazon Music library links, Ganaa.com links then you need to apply some basic common sense. Alangar Manickam (talk) 18:11, 9 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
No, you need to read our policies because you're simply wrong and that isn't going to change no matter how many times you accuse everyone else of lacking common sense, my friend. Of course you're totally welcome to continue making baseless arguments, but they will be discounted and it will still result in deletion if you can't provide actual sourcing.

Then you are here in wikipedia doing more destructive work, than constructive work. Alangar Manickam (talk) 18:22, 9 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I think you need to rethink your approach to calling experienced editors destructive or you're likely to wind up blocked. PRAXIDICAE🌈 18:25, 9 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This is a notable old Tamil film and is mentioned twice in Encyclopedia of Indian Cinema (pdf here). The official name of the film per CBFC and title card is Azhaku Nila. Newspaper sources here, here, here, here, and here. DareshMohan (talk) 07:51, 10 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Withdraw: As the one who opened this AfD, I now say it be withdrawn. Congrats to DareshMohan for adding those sources (I found one too). Kailash29792 (talk) 10:43, 10 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

IMDB Website Link for the movie, youtube website link, Amazon Music library links, Ganaa.com links for the movie added to the article, so please remove the deletion tag.

IMDB, YouTube, Amazon Music and Ganaa.com are not reliable or notability-assisting sources. You need to source the article to reliable source coverage about the film in media to stave off deletion, not directory entries or streaming copies of the film — because notability is not established by verifying that the film exists, it's established by verifying that the film got media coverage.
