An actor who fails notability guidelines for actors. The subject is credited with 5 appearances: one of which is non-notable we series. I couldn't establish if the subject had significant role in it. Other credit is for a video of song Ehsaas Song, which is currently at AfD as well. Third credit is for a 2019 film, Sridevi Bungalow. In this film, the subject doesnt have a significant/lead role unlike as stated in the film's article. The subject had lead role only in two films (from 2016). Thus failing notability criteria for actors.

The only (and little) coverage for the subject in reliable sources was about the 2016 films. That coverage was not in-depth either. After that, no coverage can be found. In short subject lacks significant coverage. Hence failing general notability criteria as well.

On a side note, the article was created by sockpuppet who's master was blocked a while ago, but it is borderline for speedy. The SPI can be found here. The history is muddled with contributions by socks. —usernamekiran(talk) 05:21, 1 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• comment @Britishfinance: erm... The master was blocked in Nov 2015 :) —usernamekiran(talk) 05:40, 9 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Usernamekiran, then we are at WP:G5; do you want to tag it or will I? thanks, Britishfinance (talk) 09:22, 9 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• I've checked it and posted the G5 on this - good spot! Britishfinance (talk) 12:58, 9 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• The G5 was delined due to other editors working on this article, however, most of which seem to be other blocked socks of this master (quite a list of socks they had). I guess we will just complete the AfD. Britishfinance (talk) 14:13, 9 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Britishfinance: sorry for the delayed reply. I was offline. And that was the exact reason why I said it was borderline G5 candidate :) Anyways, with notability issue, going through an AfD is better in regards of future re-creations. —usernamekiran(talk) 17:59, 9 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Usernamekiran, having looked at it, I am not sure it is so borderine (outside of the sock, the other edits of "material" content are also blocked socks; almost all other edits are mechanical). Good spot however, and surprised that it existed for so long! Britishfinance (talk) 18:02, 9 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Britishfinance: yeah. I am surprised about that too. Especially given the fact that it was deleted just 1-2 days ago under G5. At that time, creation log was not live, but you can see in the log that Bbb23 deleted it under G5, and 4 days later, it was marked as patrolled/reviewed. —usernamekiran(talk) 18:08, 9 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak Delete Actor who has only one notable role/film, with limited coverage. No other sources exist. While article can be slightly improved, not sure if it's warranted. TheOneWorkingAccount (talk) 18:16, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
