This unreleased film completed its shoot in 2019 but lacks significant coverage on production to meet WP:NFF. No scheduled release date and nothing substantial was found in a WP:BEFORE search. -- Ab207 (talk) 07:21, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Film and India. Ab207 (talk) 07:21, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- Keep - Though no scheduled release date yet, but the article is covered by a good many articles. Casts & Crews are confirmed. I find no point to delete this article. And it is not a fictitious article. Hence the article should not be deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ImSonyR9 (talk • contribs) 08:17, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
— Note to closing admin: ImSonyR9 (talk • contribs) is the creator of the page that is the subject of this AfD.- WP:ITEXISTS is not a sufficient keep rationale. Will be helpful if you elaborate on how it meets NFF requirements. -- Ab207 (talk) 08:56, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- I have added two more references which elaborates that the film shooting has been completed. The film is only waiting for an appropriate release date. Sony R (talk) 09:09, 16 June 2022 (UTC)

- Keep Seems to have enough press coverage to show notability; would seem silly to delete it then have to re-create it if/when the film gets made. Oaktree b (talk) 13:45, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- Mere "press coverage" doesn't establish notability. The only two sources cited in the production are: this press release, and this tweet, neither of which meet WP:GNG requirements. -- Ab207 (talk) 14:01, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- Keep I am seeing sources out there. Telangana Today, The New Indian Express - Indulge, The Hindu, The Times of India. What's out there is what I would expect for an unreleased film, but theres coverage of start of filming, end of filming, release of poster, along with interviews profiles on key people in regards to the movie. FHM India had a cover story with the two leads on it.(Oct. 2019). The story/interview[1] with them wasn't completely about the movie, but it did cover it. WikiVirusC(talk) 15:51, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- draftify is first option, delete is second: most of the coverage is from the "entertainment" sites/subdomains of news sites. In today's digital world, such coverage is not a big deal, and doesnt account for notability. For notability we require sustained coverage in reliable sources. In case the film is released, or gets sustained coverage till 2024-25, it can be brought back to mainspace. Until then, it fails WP:NFF. —usernamekiran (talk) 21:39, 9 June 2022 (UTC)

- Question: Does delay/cancellation due to Covid makes a film/film production notable per WP:NFF failed films criteria? Do we have existing AfD precedents which are kept or deleted for such reason? — DaxServer (t · m · c) 18:39, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
- If a film's delay is covered by independent sources in the context of COVID or any other reasons, it can be considered. However, this film's production lacks significant coverage; citations are mostly interviews/press releases which don't contribute to notability. -- Ab207 (talk) 07:21, 11 June 2022 (UTC)
