The result was delete. This article has been trying to gain a foothold since 2011. It has been in an out of the incubator and has seen no content added since August 2013. I will userfy upon request but I see no reason to return to the Incubator. Sources are claimed in the AFD discussion but I cannot understand why nothing has been done to this article.

Platform No. 1

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This is the third nomination for this page. It is a film that at least needs more references to demonstrate (1) it has been released and (2) any impact it may have made.

Incubate. My first instinct was to say "delete", but this link asserts that the film is in post-production and that it should be released this year. I have to say that I have my doubts about this, given that the film's release date has continually been pushed back for the last two years. Combined with the insanely light coverage in the news in sources such as this, this and this, I'm kind of leaning towards this film not releasing this year and probably sitting in limbo forever. There's always the possibility of Malayam language sources, but my experience with Indian films is that the English language coverage is often proportional to the foreign language sources. It's not a rule, but something I've tended to notice as a frequent occurrence. In any case, the mention of it possibly releasing this year is enough for me to argue for a incubation, although I won't argue too hard if it's deleted.

Delete, with no objection to incubation/userification if someone so desires and is ready to take responsibility to keep an eye on the article. However it should not be moved back to mainspace till there is positive evidence that the film has been released and meets WP:NFILM requirements.

Return to Incubator per coverage, IBN The Hindu Sify The Hindu Daily News & Analysis Deccan Herald et al [1] and as actress Dhanya Mary Varghese has "completed filming" her scenes,The Hindu (see paragraph 6), we can see that filming HAS commenced. Being as-yet-unreleased, we then look to WP:NFF (paragraph 3) to see that an article is still a tad premature. Cannot userfy to author, as he has been blocked for copyright violations.
