Delete. I have already checked the content, its genuine and he got the award from President of India for his movie "Mithila Makahan". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vikas.jehanabad (talk • contribs) 14:34, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I don't think the previous deletion should count against it, since it was deleted as "patent nonsense", which the current article is clearly not. The subject has some weight based on this very recent source in the article. However, I don't think that is enough to pass the WP:GNG, considering that there seems to be no other coverage in secondary sources at all, and this source is based on an interview.

Weak keep - That source above is a good one. Also, there is a text about one of his films winning an award. If a source can support that (I'm sure there will be one), it will be enough to support WP:BIO. However, he does not satisfy WP:FILMMAKER. Cheers, Nairspecht Converse 12:11, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Sorry, but there has been NO mention of the subject in any Singaporean media. The newsgram link seems to be kind of OK but not enough to pass WP:GNG --Lemongirl942 (talk) 07:24, 3 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
