The result was delete. Happy to userfy in case anyone wants to try to incorporate anything elsewhere, but there's a consensus that the film does not meet our notability guideline. No prejudice against a redirect if warranted. Go Phightins! 23:51, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:NFILM and WP:GNG. Nothing notable on a WP:BEFORE. PROD was removed because there is a mentioning of the movie in the director's obituary. I am not sure how that is related to the movie itself. Kolma8 (talk) 12:13, 23 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:NFILM. A mere mention in an obituary is not enough to establish notability. Donaldd23 (talk) 12:27, 23 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep: Agree with the opinion that there is not enough sources to establish notability. But since this is a movie, its practically not possible for some movies to find sources. So sources like this can be considered to establish notability [1]. Also additional inclusionary criteria also says that The film features significant involvement (i.e., one of the most important roles in the making of the film) by a notable person and is a major part of his/her career. This was one of the notable movies of the director mentioned in the source. Regards Kichu🐘 ^Discuss 14:42, 23 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Kashmorwiki, the sheer fact that there is no available sources supports (or should support) this deletion nomination. It is arrant balderdash to keep an article which fails all the criteria of WP:NFILM and WP:GNG and for which we all agree that there is no sources to support notability. Even many movies from the 1920s, 1950s (to include movies from India) have sources to support their notability and impact on the movie history. Kolma8 (talk) 20:20, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Kolma8, please note my comment.This is the reason why I said weak keep. I know there are not enough sources. RegardsKichu🐘 ^Discuss 03:54, 3 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete: Three of the four sources in the article are database listings with no SIGCOV and the obit is a mention. Notability is not inherited from participants in the film. I couldn't find much of anything other than promos and listings and there are not even many promos. No objection to a redirect to Sasi Shanker, but I do not see sourced content for a merge. // Timothy :: talk 21:06, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
