prod remove without explanation, fail WP:GNG - Jayanta Nath (Talk 12:44, 28 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete Not an encyclopedic list. It is totally unsourced, there is no indication of the criteria used, and it may be personal opinion. If there are well-known authoritative widely-discussed lists of West Bengal cinema (or Telugu cinema, since that can also sometimes be called Tollywood too), analogous to the Sight & Sound polls, that may merit coverage. But unless someone can explain why this is notable, delete. --Colapeninsula (talk) 16:29, 28 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete extreme POV--appears to be one person's opinion. This is material for someone's blog or Facebook wall, not an encyclopedia. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  17:33, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete. It's apparently someone treating Wikipedia like a blog. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 07:29, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Strong delete. Personal opinion. I think this could've even been a G11 candidate. Thanks, Insulam Simia (talk · contribs) 07:36, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment: Is the article actually aiming to be a list of highest grossing films of Tollywood? In such case the subject is fair enough to stay and only requires renaming. §§ Dharmadhyaksha §§ {T/C} 08:17, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete A highest-grossing film list would be appropriate. However, I don't understand this list. Note that if refers simply to Tollywood, which is a DAB. So which Tollywood is it?  Taylor Trescott  - my talk + my edits 12:44, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * So you are voting for deletion even without understanding what the topic is. The films listed are Bengali films and that's the Tollywood its referring to. §§ Dharmadhyaksha §§ {T/C} 13:10, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * No, I'm voting because the topic is unclear. I thought it was a listing of top grossing films, but there's one at the bottom that grossed significantly less than the others. I'm guessing it has something to do with the rating column to the right.  Taylor Trescott  - my talk + my edits 13:25, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't mind deleting the article for it's unclarity, POV title, disambiguity in it and the fact that it's created by a sock which qualifies it for speedy deletion. But none of the regular editors of Bengali cinema have come in here yet and they might be able to salvage it. §§ Dharmadhyaksha §§ {T/C} 13:31, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * The nominator is a regular editor of Bengali film articles. &mdash; Spaceman  Spiff  19:02, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

 * ( Non administrator WikiProject India editor's observation ) These articles are always prone to spam. There are many reports most probably in all noticeboards. This is one of those reports. As a primary editor of these articles and Bengali film portal, I can tell you, this article is full of spam and original research. I am eager to add a Hoax, when you call some of poorest films as best films of a film industry just to promote one two actors and one two production house, it becomes a deliberate attempt to create hoax. Note, am not voting here at this moment. -- Tito ☸ Dutta 13:43, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
