Delete per nom. The 4-5 sources found via google search do not satisfy even WP:BASIC. Also, notability is not inherited. VV 08:54, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Fails WP:NACTOR. References are a mixture of interview, passing mentions and not a great deal else. Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^{Talk to me} 14:24, 3 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Delete - difficult discussion, especially given the sources added since the AfD was filed, but still a borderline delete. The subject accrued a decent level of media coverage in 2018 and had their film nominated (with one win) for international awards - however, this coverage is mostly centered on the documentary itself and is likely not enough to fulfil WP:DIRECTOR. Post 2018 coverage of the subject is also lacking, implying that other parts of WP:DIRECTOR (i.e being widely cited by peers and producing a significant body of work) have not been met. Maybe in the future the subject will continue to accrue more coverage, but it is WP:TOOSOON for now. SamHolt6 (talk) 13:08, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - There is Post 2018 coverage about the subject, The documentary film got selected to Toronto International Film Festival and won the Best Biographical Film award in Toronto International Women Film Festival in 2021 and I have added significant news reference which talks about it and the subject in detail which were published in 2021.I feel that the article deserved to be Kept.

Comment - 3rd and 4th point of WP:DIRECTOR met and thus passes WP:DIRECTOR Jehowahyereh (talk) 17:27, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Fails WP:NACTOR and WP:SIGCOV.4meter4 (talk) 19:30, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment : The subject is not only a film actress, but also a film director (passes WP:DIRECTOR) and business head in top media channel in India. In addition it passes WP:SIGCOV - Article1 , Article2 are the news articles in Mathrubhumi and Article3 is the news article in Malayala Manorama which talks in detail about the subject and passes WP:SIGCOV Jehowahyereh (talk) 05:51, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
