Higuita (film)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

No longer an upcoming film (was released in 2020). OnManorama is a review but for WP:NFILM#1 we'd need a second and the rest is routine coverage, as was anything else I could find (e.g. ). No listing at Rotten Tomatoes or Metacritic, couldn't get anything useful out of IMDb and so on. — Bilorv ( talk ) 21:02, 7 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep: Actually the nominator is wrong here. The movie is not released yet. See this article written on April 2020 It says Higuita team had completed a 40-day schedule in Kannur and is looking forward to completing the rest of the shooting soon after the lockdown ends. The production of all Malayalam movies were completely stopped by the end of March 2020 due to Covid 19 pandemic. This movie's production is still delayed as the shooting has not yet completed due to busy schedule of actor Suraj Venjaramoodu. This source  shown here by the nom is actually written in 2019 and is talking about the performance of actor Suraj in different movies during that year and not about this particular movie. The movie has also recieved more than enough coverage thus passing GNG. Regards. Kichu🐘 Need any help? 09:34, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the comment, . Bad research on my part (though I swear somewhere said it released in 2020...); I'll do better next time. However, in line with this, I would now argue for a draftify (or, second option, soft delete) outcome because I don't know what sources you're seeing that aren't routine, but we might expect the content to be useful once the movie is released (if it then becomes notable). Per WP:NFF, the production has to be notable for an article to be warranted and though the condition it uses is the commencement of principal photography, given that there has been an indefinite hiatus of at least a year so far, it is in the spirit of NFF for this project to not be far enough along to have an article. Many projects have been cancelled as a result of an initial hiatus caused by the pandemic and I think it's WP:CRYSTAL to support keeping the article, as it would not be notable if no further work was ever undertaken on it and it silently fell through. — Bilorv ( talk ) 10:58, 8 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Yes, Im also not sure whether this movie would release in the near future. You might wanna have a look at Aadujeevitham (film) also. This movie has also stopped production due to Covid 19 Pandemic and there are no chances this would be releasing in near future. Kichu🐘 Need any help? 13:22, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete Unreleased film without a notable production. Fails WP:NFF. WP:NFILM really doesn't apply yet. Donaldd23 (talk) 14:58, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Fails NFF... Kolma8 (talk) 21:21, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
