Hum Sab Chor Hain (1973 film)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

An article about a Bollywood film, sourced only to (non-WP:RS) IMDb since creation in 2008. The article lacks a plot summary; and a WP:BEFORE search failed to find one; only the usual selection of listings sites, and offers to sell (or more dubiously, for a film still in copyright, to share) the film or songs from it. I found nothing RS about this film. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NFILM.

Note. If this article goes, DAB page Hum Sab Chor Hain will be redundant; and Ham Sab Chor Hain (1995 film) should be retitled to Hum Sab Chor Hain by a WP:ROBIN swap per WP:PRECISE. Narky Blert (talk) 16:14, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

 * Comment: There is also a 1956 film by this name which was perhaps more notable (mentions such as "K. Shorey's early films starring the fatty Meena and some of I. S. Johar's better comedies like " Hum Sab Chor Hain "", "Johar then turned director and scripted two other noteworthy comedies – Shrimati Ji (1952) and Hum Sab Chor Hain (1956) – both of which were Filmistan productions."). I see both mentions of 1971 or 1973 as release date for the movie by Maruti. It's mentioned here, , (p. 145). Notably it appears to have been marketed by another name 'The Criminals'. --Soman (talk) 18:31, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
 * The 1956 film is mentioned (but not redlinked) in List of Bollywood films of 1956, I. S. Johar. Shammi Kapoor and Nalini Jaywant at least. Notability is WP:NOTINHERITED, but the contributions by several notable people make me think there could well be enough about the film itself to support an article.
