 * Symbol question.svg. Thank you. New enough, copyvio 0%, long enough. In-line citations present. AGF with sources.


 * I reworded a little. I think we can make it read better. I'll look again later.
 * The life section could be divided possibly (early life, career etc).
 * Divided in Early life and Theatre career sections.


 * I assume "weekly" means a weekly newspaper.
 * Clarified.


 * Is there another way of explaining 'failure' and 'hit? ie. failure because didn't achieve good reviews or because didn't bring in revenue.
 * Commercially successful/critically acclaimed would be better. I will change.


 * "he wrote Barrister (1897) which was a play about a youth who was devastated due to his attraction to the western world."....might be helpful to expand and explain.
 * What should I explain? The source said the same thing without dwelling into details.


 * QPQ needed and I otherwise prefer ALT1 or even shorter ALT2. Whispyhistory (talk) 15:22, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
 * QPQ soon. I am OK with any of hooks you choose.-Nizil (talk)
 * Thank you . Once QPQ done, I'll tick for ALT1 or ALT2 as they are clearer. Whispyhistory (talk) 14:21, 17 August 2018 (UTC)
 * ✅ QPQ. ALT2 would be better because it is shorter and Gujarati playwright is already assumed from Gujarati theatre. So approve ALT2. Thank you for all the suggestions and corrections. Regards,-Nizil (talk) 05:25, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg. All appears ok. Nice teamwork. Whispyhistory (talk) 07:31, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
