I fail to see any significant coverage and thus, encyclopedic notability.TOOSOON. ~ Winged Blades Godric 09:36, 21 February 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep, as per WP:MUSICBIO, Section 9- she won a major music competition Chhote Ustaad - Do Deshon Ki Ek Awaaz and placed second in Jo Jeeta Wohi Superstar. Also Section 10- she performed multiple songs for media productions (films, tv shows). Cait.123 (talk) 16:15, 21 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Hmm..MUSICBIO states:--Musicians or...... may be notable if they meet at least one of the following criteria. Generally such achievements usually leads to a pass of GNG but sadly, that's not the case here.And, given the number of music-reality-shows airing on every alternate channel, sigh .... ~ Winged Blades Godric 06:38, 22 February 2018 (UTC)
 * The number of singing competitions that exist in the world is irrelevant. The two competitions she participated in are both notable. Cait.123 (talk) 08:49, 22 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Notability (music) states that "the failure to meet any of these criteria does not mean an article must be deleted; conversely, meeting any of these criteria does not mean that an article must be kept". The topic-specific guidelines are just rough indicators of a subject meeting WP:GNG or WP:BASIC. But once the article is Afded, you must show that the "topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject", which is required for a standalone article. In short, you should either provide multiple in-depth independent sources or a large number of independent sources which have non-trivial coverage of the subject. - NitinMlk (talk) 21:38, 26 February 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete – fails both WP:GNG & WP:BASIC. This is the second nomination of the BLP. It was deleted six months ago after the first nomination – see Articles for deletion/Akanksha Sharma. And as far as independent & in-depth coverage is concerned, nothing has changed for the subject in the past six months. She still hasn't received any in-depth coverage in the independent sources. In fact, she has hardly received any independent coverage other than few passing mentions here & there. - NitinMlk (talk) 21:38, 26 February 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom and NitinMlk above, the subject fails to recieve in-depth coverage in the independent reliable sources. I suspect COI issue as well as how desperately multiple users were creating article on the same subject under verious titles e.g. Akanksha Sharma, Akanksha Sharma (singer and performer), Akanksha Sharma - Public figure and now Aakanksha Sharma.
