An actor. The article was deleted before via an AfD. Article was re-created and the speedy was declined for, "not the same article, previous discussion doesn't seem to apply, given increased sourcing". One ref in the article is about a hit-in-run accident he was in. One ref is about the father and the movie, not about Kohli. Other ref is short and about the father "re-launching" his son's career. The relaunch didn't work. Most of the parts were not the leads as far as I can tell. Unable to find any independent, reliable refs that don't involve his car accident.

 * Keep Bollywood Hungama, IMDb, Gomolo, Raftaar, Movie talkies etc are some pages where I can find his name. I also think he has not acted in lead roles. But, still a notbale actor of side-role I think! --Tito Dutta (talk) 18:08, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment All of the above refs are just sites that list actors. If you are an Indian actor who has done any films, chances are you will be listed, but that does not mean you are notable.  Several, such as IMDb, Movie talkies and Gomolo, are unreliable as they allow anyone to edit. Bollywood Hungama and Raftaar list almost any actor, just like IMDb.  To pass GNG, references have to be reliable and go into detail about Kohli, thus none of these refs meet the criteria. Bgwhite (talk) 22:59, 20 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Very weak keep: Most of this guy's coverage has come thanks to his famous father, and not because he himself is notable. At the same time, there's no denying that there have been multiple articles in reliable sources that dealt with him in some depth. I don't put too much stock in the ones about his hit-and-run, but the ones that cover relaunching his career are somewhat substantial and focus squarely on him. I feel this meets WP:BASIC and WP:GNG, but by the thinnest of possible margins. --Batard0 (talk) 07:31, 23 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - a search of Google news reveals several news pieces that could be added to the article. Bearian (talk) 18:22, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
