Notability cannot be established due to lack of reliable secondary sources that are independent of the topic and provide significant coverage of it beyond its mere trivial mention BrantleyIzMe (talk) 13:21, 31 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Weak keep. The article has some references from The Times of India, which is a reliable source. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 18:14, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Also, if you search for his name in the Kannada language, ಚಂದನ್ ಶೆಟ್ಟಿ, you will find additional links such as https://vijaykarnataka.indiatimes.com/entertainment/gossip/chandan-shetty-music-in-seizer/articleshow/63666245.cms  and https://kannada.filmibeat.com/news/team-all-oks-nangansiddu-song-controversy-chandan-shetty-reaction-029316.html   These have the English version of his name in the URL, so they are probably primarily about him. They also each have a photo of him. I think this counts as in-depth coverage. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 18:35, 31 July 2018 (UTC)

Thank you! It does count. The article was first nominated for deletion about 10 months ago but for some reasons it was not deleted. I think its now worthy to be on WP. However, it desperately needs attention from someone who is familiar with the subject (Indian musicians) BrantleyIzMe (talk) 19:32, 3 August 2018 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Weak Delete given the issues of the article and possible failure to maintain the notability guidelines. If the issues are fixed and the article is improved drastically, a keep may be best, though that is unlikely.
