The result was delete. Indian sources about people with an interest in being promoted are normally given less weight, see Paid news in India, and people here agree that what coverage there is is marginal. Sandstein 14:08, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not yet notable as an actress. Does not pass WP:NACTOR and WP:GNG. DMySon (talk) 11:46, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep - I resisted this based on her only having minor roles in two movies, one of which has not been released yet. But the coverage in the Times of India (four articles of 3-4 paragraphs each) is on the border of GNG. I cannot comment on the non-English sources, but it looks like barely enough.--Gronk Oz (talk) 11:56, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete – I don't consider the Times of India pieces grounds for notability. TOI publishes very, very many brief fluff pieces like the ones in this article: typically, they contain very little actual information, instead falling back on hyperbole like "It might be hard to find a netizen who hasn’t watched the video of a five-year-old cutie Vriddhi"; they often the same text (compare this and this, both of them used as sources in this article); and they are often centered around Instagram posts by the subject themselves. The Malayalam language sources are the exact same type of texts. Reading the sources we find that she was filmed dancing at a wedding about a year ago, that film became popular online, and her parents have since published some other videos with her on social media. She has also had a role in a movie (Sara's) but it doesn't look as if any of the sources in that article mentions her, so it's unlikely to have been a prominent role. All in all, WP:TOOSOON, especially since this is a very young child so WP:BLPPRIVACY is extra important. --bonadea contributions talk 16:52, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The TOI source is already in the article, and is one of the two articles linked above that is partly the exact same text. The Hindu article is about an entertainment centre, and mentions her name once; it is not about her. --bonadea contributions talk 10:02, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Falls short of WP:NACTOR due to lack of significant roles. Does not meet GNG either per bonadea's analysis. -- Ab207 (talk) 14:14, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
