I could find no significant sourcing online for this actor/director. Apparently he was in a few notable films, but only had a prominent role in one and there is no sourcing aside from IMDB and other databases. Fails WP:GNG. ‡ The Night Watch ω (talk) 20:55, 22 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Morekar, I'm glad you found some sourcing, but can you tell me what makes "Maharashtra Nayak" and "Marathi Movie World" reliable sources? The about pages for both do not inspire much confidence for their professionalism.

Keep Seems to be an established all-rounder. WP:NEXIST is the established consensus. If sources are available anywhere and I'm sure they are, then he's notable. Passes WP:SIGCOV. 14:39, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
- Yes. SIGCOV is indeed met. But NEXIST says that there must be reliable sources, and I am questioning the validity of those included sources. Also, I'm a bit concerned that you're asserting WP:TMBS. I could find no reliable sources via WP:ASEARCH. Can you tell me why these included sources prove that there will be RSes out there that prove notability? ‡ The Night Watch ω (talk) 16:57, 28 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete None of the sources provided ever proved the significance of the subject. Many of the sources cited and external articles that I found (like this one) only ever mentioned him as the husband of Uma Bhende, with no indication of the significance of his work. His movies that are listed in rotten tomatoes, cinestaan and IMDB have no reviews nor ratings. There is nothing to prove that the subject is notable enough to have his own Wikipedia article as far as I can tell. Tutwakhamoe (talk) 21:36, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
