This article has been rejected multiple times in AfC so it'd be better to get AfC approval before creating the article. Coderzombie (talk) 11:05, 2 February 2016 (UTC)

 * Draftify Weak Keep: I believe it should be moved to Draftspace for improvement, not deleted. Chrisw80 (talk) 18:06, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Update: I think the content could use a lot of trimming to match the reliable sources, but I don't think the article is entire un-salvageable, as there ''are' some sources that talk about Abhinay Banker directly, and the discussion is comprehensive. Chrisw80 (talk) 05:59, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment: Now that this has reached AfD, a persisting answer to the question of notability should be sought, but it may also be worth noting the longer history of attempts to place this article prior to the thrice-rejected AfC, via another account, at User talk:Abhinay Banker.

 * Keep There are now RS in the article, including The Indian Express, and The Times of India ( the second ref from The Times), so I think this actor, director and writer passes WP:GNGAtlantic306 (talk) 23:50, 16 February 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep per . Clearly meets WP:GNG per the Times of India references; he's a notable person within Indian cinema. Clearly the article does have some WP:NPOV issues at the moment though. "...is the sensational personality, who has shaped and inspired a lot of young actors and theater enthusiasts. An ardent actor, a sharp director, a passionate writer and a proficient casting director, he has touched the audiences with his team of fresh and nifty students and the very original ideas that he believes in." clearly not an encyclopedic tone! &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 11:07, 17 February 2016 (UTC)
