This article was created six years ago, and in that time, we don't have any better sense of how this guy is notable. He was credited as a producer on a short film that won an award. Other highlights of his career, according to the article, says that he's produced infomercials. That's not sufficient for notability standards, I'm sure. I'm not aware of too many producers who have Wikipedia articles, but I'm skeptical about this one. His short was Last Train to Mahakali. A Google search for his name and "Last Train" produces virtually nothing of note. He only has one credit at IMDb. This seems to be a vanity article.

Delete/restore redirect: An article repurposed from a redirect by Man tiwari with substantial later editing by Actor Manish Tiwari. The article is riddled with subjective preening about family background and aspirations, perhaps appropriate for a personal site but not here. Any notability would appear to rest with the uncited claim that he "shot to fame" by co-producing a short film; I am seeing no evidence which supports this or any other claim to notability. Fails WP:FILMMAKER, WP:BASIC. (The politician Manish Tewari does appear to be named as "Tiwari" in some English-language sources, e.g. Times of India, so restoring the original redirect may be the best outcome.)

per AllyD above Delete and restore as redirect to Manish Tewari. GSS (talk|c|em) 17:03, 16 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as WP:PROMO, promotional in intent, content and composition - could be a G11, regards Atlantic306 (talk) 18:46, 19 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
