Vanity piece (and effectively unsourced BLP, as there are no footnotes, so it's not clear where the info come from) on a non-notable actor. Search finds nothing even approaching RS sigcov; the article in The Daily Eye listed in the references probably comes closest, but I don't know how reliable it is, and in any case it's based on an interview. Fails WP:GNG / WP:NACTOR. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:06, 3 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Thank you for adding some footnote citations; however, the great majority of the article remains unsupported. More to point, the new references don't address the main reason for this AfD, namely notability (or rather lack thereof). If you wish to prevent your article being deleted, you need to satisfy either or both of the types of notability mentioned in the nomination. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 16:01, 5 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Based on my further research on the subject, I have sourced around 20 articles from print media without any web source - included few in citations. Newspaper cutting / pictures are available but WikiMedia doesn't allow upload due to Copyright issues. WP:NACTOR The subject has appeared as a lead actor with prominent visibility on poster - in 3 mainstream movies (with theatrical release in India and available to stream on prominent OTT platforms Amazon Prime and Airtel Xtreme) and 3 music videos with massive (33 Milliom plus) viewership on official channel of Music labels. Has received primary and secondary mentions in around 40 web articles for different projects - few of them included in citations. For WP:GNG Significant primary and secondary coverage in multiple reliable sources are provided like Eastern Eye, India Today and interview by a prominent journalist like Khalid Mohamed. Official artist and movie pages from The Times of India has been included to establish presence of his work on reliable sources. The subject's Verified Facebook profile is also referenced as 'External Links'. Thank you. AmazingVoiceovers (talk) 11:31, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Cited Reference to support WP:GNG recent article on entertainment website Telly Chakkar - Article on Telly Chakkar AmazingVoiceovers (talk) 17:50, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  - Telly Chakkar is WP:NOTRS, considering that it explicitly identifies itself as a gossip website. -- Ab207 (talk) 17:08, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
