Master account was blocked October 2014 for self-promotion: "persistently adding edits about himself, his future films etc, despite warnings". New SPA account has recreated pages about Jaishankar Chigurula [1] and his film. — CactusWriter (talk) 21:49, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

- User:Bunny8683 may also be worth a check. I can't check the article now that it's been deleted, but I think their DAYA (2015) SHORTFILM article was about a film by the same director (I gave them both a COI warning, on the mild AGF that the director had erroneously created two accounts). This article was created around the same time and matches the capslock style. --McGeddon (talk) 22:49, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

- Rajeshbhatt director (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki) is also Confirmed. The only question is whether the account should be tagged as a sock. They were blocked for impersonating a film director, which is what the master here may also be doing. Both the master and Rajeshbhatt director created articles about themselves. The master's was pretty much a framework, whereas Rajeshbhatt director's was a very crude promotion. Despite some dissimilarities, in combination with the technical evidence, I think the account should be tagged, but I’ll leave it up to Vanjagenije or whoever looks at this later.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:54, 16 November 2015 (UTC)

According to Commons CU information (c:Commons:Requests for checkuser/Case/JAISHANKAR DIRECTOR), JAISHANKAR DIRECTOR=Teena D'souza=Sajju bhai. JAISHANKAR DIRECTOR was blocked for not being here to contribute to the encylopedia. Another evidence that they are connected is the sockpuppet's editing of the article Jaishankar Chigurula (Director). Pokéfan95 (talk) 13:43, 8 August 2016 (UTC)

C.H,Srivaas is a WP:SPA, all edits have been about Jaishankar Chigurula (Director), his films and people associated with them. Wikishovel (talk) 08:03, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
Surya Rajam is a duck. Account was created right after Srivaas was warned about removing AFD tags. Sole edits so far have been:
- a quick edit to user and talk pages to turn them blue in edit summaries
- voting "keep" in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jaishankar Chigurula (Director): [2]
- attempting to IP block me: [3]
- attempting to become an admin, by adding WP admin category to their user page: [4]
- removing AFD tag at Jaishankar Chigurula (Director): [5]
- Removing AFD tag at 21 (2016 film): [6] Wikishovel (talk) 11:04, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
Rohith Shetty and Naresh Kumar aavula are more ducks. Contributions so far:
- a quick edit to user and talk pages to turn them blue in edit summaries
- voting "keep" in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jaishankar Chigurula (Director): Rohith Shetty, Naresh Kumar aavula
- Rather than create their own user page, Naresh Kumar aavula pasted templates from User:Ganeshk, apparently trying to gain permission to operate multiple accounts

Duck: first edits were to create his user page [7] and talk page, then straight on to creation of Talk:Jaishankar Chigurula [8] (article is salted, but not talk page yet) [9]. An hour later, creates Jaishankar Chigurula (film director) [10], and the speedy tag is removed minutes later by Prasad Sarangapani [11]. Wikishovel (talk) 17:00, 25 October 2016 (UTC)

Recreation of 21 (2016 film) as 21 (film 2016) (Rtrust later moved it to 21 (2016 film)) and Jaishankar Chigurula (Director) as Jaishankar Chigurula (director). The creator tried to game the system as per the titles chosen by him/her has clear deletion log and the creator repeated the same dialogue here which s/he previously added at 21 (2016 film) talk page which I'm unable to see but yes I do remember.

Recreation of 21 (2016 film) and 21st (film) earlier created by some socks and this time the title is 21 (2016 telugu film). The first article created by this possible duck was for Viswa Kamal who's debut film is 21 (2016 film) also the first edit of this user is very similer to others.

In 2017, SPA Gani mondeti recreated Jaishankar Chigurula as Jaishankar Chigurula (filmmaker) to get around protection and then dropped off Wikipedia - no edits to anything else. Now Sudhakar pops up, adding tons of spammy nonsense to the Chigurula article and trying to repeatedly spam and push through a film of Chigurula: Zinga (film 2019) (see also the drafts currently at MFD). I realize the Gani account is going to be stale and any CU evidence will be worthless but this seems like a heck of a lot of WP:MEAT to me. Praxidicae (talk) 20:42, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
