Not clear if this is a notable book. I'm not sure if winning the Nandi Awards is sufficient to be considered notable. Ricky81682 (talk) 11:25, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Strong keep Meets WP:NBOOK, namely "The book has won a major literary award" AusLondonder (talk) 23:02, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep likely as this seems locally significant and notable. SwisterTwister talk 07:19, 27 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Would appear to be an important work on Telugo Cinema, and the Nandi Awards are national. For one who does not speak Telugo, searching on తెలుగు సినిమా చరిత్ర isn't easy, and should maybe be left to those who deos. -- Sam Sailor ^Talk! 09:01, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Meets WP:NBOOK. It has won a "major literary award", the Nandi Award. Those awards are considered to be of the highest level for work in Telugu arts. The book is significant itself in being considered as one of the first ever detailed study of the old Telugu cinema. — Yash! ^(Y) 10:12, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
