The result was delete. There is probably an article to be written about hand gestures in Indian classical dance, but this is not it; the subject is touched on in Mudra#Indian classical dance, but as this term is not used there, a redirect seems pointless.

Cannot find any evidence of notability. Article has been without references or evidence of notability since 2007. Colapeninsula (talk) 14:15, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or substantially rewrite. It's not often that you come across an article where the title doesn't even appear in the article itself. I tried to find the meaning of "Hasta Kosha" but didn't come up with very much. Apparently a style of dance in India, but I think the article is titled poorly... Not enough mention found to keep.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Rewrite or Delete This article has no lede, and the title seems to appear in a different form well into the article. There is significant content, but without very substantial rewriting the article is not up to minimum Wikipedia standards. --DThomsen8 (talk) 12:58, 22 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
