I'm unable to find coverage that demonstrates WP:BIO or WP:NAUTHOR is met. The claim to have written a bestseller seems to be unverifiable. SmartSE (talk) 20:19, 10 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: The mentions in the article that might demonstrate notability are completely unsourced, and per nom, I can't find any sources that back up the claims made in the article. In fairness, I can't read Hindi so there may be more sources available than I can access. Overall, this seems to be an over-inflated CV with some very promotional language.
