 * Strong Delete-Article Is too non-important to be mentioned in Wikipedia!!!
 * No reliable (if any) source exist about this person!!!! Aru@baska ❯❯❯  Vanguard 12:02, 29 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Weak keep. The obstacle here is not so much locating sources, but trying to determine which Indian music and celebrity news sources could be considered reliable. There's no shortage of Daily Mail-esque reporting of his wedding (including, literally, by the Daily Mail) but I don't consider that to speak toward notability. This Zee News review seems at first glance to be a reliable source. I'm marginally accepting of this one; on the other hand, it is a bylined article originating with an industry wire service and there are currently quite a few other articles citing the same site's reporting. This short article is less certain still, mostly because I'm unable to determine if the site has any declared editorial staff or policy. Given the background here, I simply cannot imagine that Indian media haven't covered him in greater depth as well, but I'm limited in my ability to search for those sources.

 * Deletion is justified- A strong background is no criterion for a person to exist in an encyclopedia (like WIKIPEDIA)!!! I have searched a lot for his contributions/notable performance in any field(music etc.)The searches have drawn a blank and the only news available in WP:RS (except his songs in "Jai Veeru") are of his lavish weddings,his background etc, !!!!!
