Subject of article lacks in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources hence falls short of WP:GNG. He also falls short of WP:SINGER & WP:NACTOR. A “before” I conducted shows him mentioned in unreliable sources which even merely discuss him in passing. Celestina007 (talk) 13:16, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete still not a notable singer. I have to wonder how some of these articles with multiple sources get renominated but we have articles with only the non-reliable IMDb which have languished in that state for over a decade. It seems like a big problem is that those who pay most attention to actor, actress and film articles accept the status quo of sourcing to only a non-reliable source.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:51, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Johnpacklambert Please Check the article again. He is notable Singer and Actor. You Can Check Multiple News articles on google. He has acted in 4 notable movies and also received 3 Noted Awards for his acting and singing.

Keep, has leading roles in two notable films, one of which earned him a Filmfare Award which is one of the most notable film awards in India. He has also won two more notable awards for his singing and has coverage in multiple national newspapers such as MidDay and others, already in the article. Passes WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR in my view Atlantic306 (talk) 23:16, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per WP:HEY, creator has added significant information on the page since nom and he has won some nationally renowned awards as well as scoring himself roles in major bollywood films.

Note to closing admin: Dear admin, whenever you take a decision, before please check the article yourself. Virenderthind2019 (talk) 05:57, 5 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep -- Going by the article, and the discussion so far. I checked the sources as Virenderthind2019 has asked of everyone above, and I am with Atlantic306 than anyone else here. Most of the coverage, which is significant, is from TOI, but I understand it's still counted. I am not familiar with other sources but assuming at least some of them are reliable (Atlantic names MidDay above), it passes the "multiple", and therefore GNG. Then there's the fact that he's worked in a few notable projects. I understand the Filmfare win is presented a bit deceptively as it's apparently Filmfare (Punjab), not Filmfare India/Bollywood, but it's not like Punjab is a minor world community. I would require the delete !voters to present detailed analysis of the sourcing/coverage here; sweeping assertions don't seem very helpful at this juncture.

@Usedtobecool Dear Sir, Filmfare Punjab means it belongs to Punjabi Cinema. But Filmfare is same as Filmfare Punjab is presented by Filmfare. The reference I have given for the award is publish on the official website of the Filmfare. He also received PTC Punjabi Music Awards twice for his singing, which is very notable award of punjabi music industry. He has acted in 5 movies as lead. 2 movies are notable movies and has wikipedia articles.

I think it is enough for notebility. What you say? Virenderthind2019 (talk) 12:59, 6 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
