  1. I was unable to review the 4 non-english sources, but the English language sources does not look so good, the 2 times of india sources is questionable due to paid news, and source 1 is clearly promotional.
  2. the South Indian International Movie Awards is not a award about music, regardless on whether its major enough
  3. the National Youth Festival is way below the threshold of a major music competition
  4. the guideline links to Record label#Major labels, which only lists Universal Music Group, Sony Music, and Warner Music Group
  5. has nothing to do with notability if the films themselves are not notable

based on [WP:MUSICBIO] no. 5 Has released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels (i.e., an independent label with a history of more than a few years). Aditya Music and Times Music Are these indie labels or not? Induvadhone (talk) 16:28, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
the wording on the guideline is really ambiguous but note important, the question is really if they are important or not labels... I would argue not but it's up for debate Justiyaya 17:31, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
