 * Delete, as per explanation. --Juansidious (talk) 02:57, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak keep has coverage in WP:RS and repeatedly mentioned as a hit . A popular song from the movie provoked protests . Not sure many Indian newspapers will have their 1998 archives online. cab (talk) 04:32, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Er, this article is also a duplicate of Dulhe Raja, but now this one is better sourced than that one. No idea why the author of this one created a duplicate. cab (talk) 11:18, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Great, now we've got one that's better written but one that's better sourced. I'll put the merge tags in. Thanks for finding this CAB. Padillah (talk) 15:51, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep - I think that though the first group of sources provided by Cab don't do a great job as sources, they show it's an important enough movie to have an article. The second source, about the protest, is a good source and should be incorporated into the article. matt91486 (talk) 04:36, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep as per WP:MOVIE. Widely released, immensely popular Bollywood movie starring grade one cast ... even shown in Indian film festival in Japan . As for sources:, , ,  etc 98.212.162.154 (talk) 04:56, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep the film has one of Bollywood's top stars, and their are already enough sources. Also, please consider systemic bias. Anyways The Essential Guide to Bollywood seems to place the film among the landmark events of 1998. Also, one of the actors of the film obtained for his role a Filmfare Award, one of India's top, it seems.--Aldux (talk) 20:14, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment - Ok, then 2 questions: 1) How do I drop this AfD. and 2) what are we going to do with the two articles? Padillah (talk) 20:37, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
 * You can simply write "withdrawn by nominator" bolded, and the AfD will end. Mostlyharmless (talk) 02:22, 29 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep. Wide coverage in reliable sources. Mostlyharmless (talk) 01:07, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Withdrawn by nominator - This is apparently notable enough but needs serious work to flesh out. Also, note needs to be made of this being a remake of the other Dulhe Raja film. Padillah (talk) 14:59, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
