Aashik Aawara

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Sources provided are nowhere near WP:GNG, I failed to find any additional sources online despite searching for multiple spellings of the title, combined with various related terms, and also the Hindi title. Searching for sources was complicated by the existence of another film, Aashik Awara. It's unclear if there's any actual relationship between the films, but the spellings appear to be totally interchangeable so at the minimum there needs to be disambiguation between them. signed,Rosguill talk 07:44, 7 June 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep, The film is in Bhojpuri language and yet it has reasonable coverage in English Media. I am from Wikiproject India and I speak Hindi and Bhojpuri. I would like to clarify the doubt above that this movie has absolutely no relationship with the similarly titled Hindi movie that nom has found out. Based on my searches and coverage in Hindi newspapers, I feel this Bhojpuri movie passes our notability criteria. This film is one of the most notable films of actor Dinesh Lal Yadav and actress Kajal Raghwani based on this news article and thisfrom Navbharat Times. The film has also got coverage of it peaking the charts. The articles would also need a hatnote to disambiguate the 2 movies.-- D Big X ray ᗙ  08:56, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
 * , was there any other coverage that you were able to find, such as actual reviews of the film? I don't think the sources you've listed here add up to meeting WP:GNG. signed,Rosguill talk 17:12, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Prabhat Khabar in its article here, calls it a hit film. (Hit film = notable film in India)
 * Zee News covers the song and the movie here.
 * Dainik Jagran calls it, one of the notable film of The actor duo Dinesh Lal Yadav and actress Kajal Raghwani
 * All these reasons, in addition to the ones I noted in my earlier comment are enough for me to keep this article. -- D Big X ray ᗙ  12:22, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
 * , Ok, I think the Zee News coverage demonstrates notability. I'm a bit perplexed that you've been able to find so much trivial coverage of the film, or coverage that fleetingly attests to commercial success but doesn't otherwise discuss the subject, but no full length reviews. Still, what we've got here means we'd likely meet GNG by NEXIST, so I will withdraw the nomination. Before we close, however, do you have any thoughts on how to disambiguate the films? My impression as someone who doesn't speak Hindi or Bhojpuri is that we should move both films to some spelling of their title + (year film), and then have all spellings of the title point at the 1993 film with a disambiguating hatnote, as it seems to be the primary topic for the time being. signed,Rosguill talk 18:20, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Rosguill the sources are less in number as you would expect from an English movie, mainly because of language bias and internet bias. (see WP:BIAS). The audience of these movies read Hindi newspapers mostly as compared to English. Hence the coverage shows a similar trend. Thanks for agreeing to withdraw the nomination. I support your dab suggestion. With a minor tweaking that the title Aashik Aawara point to the bhojpuri movie. A hotnote would still be needed and helpful.
