The result was keep. Never close on one !vote but MQS is correct - indian/sri lanka films/blps etc are always given leeway as the sources aren't as brilliant as UK/US, Anyway meets BASIC (non-admin closure) –Davey2010^Talk 23:27, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The article fails WP:NFILM in that there are no independent reviews of the film provided, no evidence that it is historically notable, has not recieved any major awards and is not recognised by the sri lankan national archive. Dan arndt (talk) 07:11, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep being notable enough through The Sunday Times (1), Lankaweb, The Sunday Times (2), Daily News, Halanada, The Daily Mirror, and Srilankan Star. We certainly do not expect a Sri Lankan film to have the same notability as does Star Wars, but if it has the sourcess available to meet WP:NF we can have an article. The available independent reviews prove notability even if not currently used. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 10:54, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
