I can find no reliable references mentioning the term. Term was supposedly coined by "Jais Chauhan". Article was initially created by user:Jschauhan2013, and user:Jschauhan2016 just re-created his biography at Jais Chauhan. In my opinion this term fails our notability guidelines, see WP:MADEUP.

- Delete Appears to be a Neologism announced by Jais Chauhan (blocked user Jschauhan2013) see this press release which, despite Chauhan's attempts to broaden its usage, has not caught on. - Arjayay (talk) 14:34, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
- Delete at best as this is still questionable for the needed notability improvements, nothing else or any better context to suggest this. SwisterTwister talk 04:38, 3 May 2016 (UTC)

- Delete There are two spellings, Brijwood and Brajwood, but even when searching for both of them I can't find sources that the term is notable. The -wood suffix is very productive but every coined word ending in -wood, and denoting a cinema industry, is not notable. --bonadea contributions talk 09:50, 3 May 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:NEO. This could almost be WP:CSD#A11 obviously invented. JohnCD (talk) 20:04, 3 May 2016 (UTC)

- Delete for while the term is not made-up, it lacks wide enough usage to meet our notability criteria. Schmidt, Michael Q. 05:18, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
- FTR, your searches point to Times of India pages which apparently uses the categories from the respective Wikipedia pages for its content (without attribution, as far as I can tell), one of them being Category:Brijwood. That's why the term showed up there, citogenesis. Amalthea 11:33, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
