This article about an choreographer in the Telugu film industry does not seem to meet our notability requirements. There does not seem to have been any significant, independent coverage in reliable sources. Most of this article contains an unsourced filmography of films which this person seems to have had only a minor involvement. Does not appear to pass WP:GNG, WP:NBIO or WP:ENT.

 * Keep on the basis of CREATIVE Criteria #3. He is one of the choreographers for the viral song Rowdy Baby. TamilMirchi (talk) 04:53, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Question - So his most noteworthy contribution was that in 1999 he helped make a video for a to promote a viral song in that was released in 1998. Can you show the sources that show that his choreography was "the primary subject of an independent and notable work" as per Criteria #3? The article as it currently stands gives no impression that this is the work he is best known for. From the perspective of somebody who knows little of the Tamil film industry, this seems to be an attempt to puff-up the CV of a creative person who definitely fails all of the other more commonly applied notability criteria. --Salimfadhley (talk) 09:17, 6 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep Adding on TamilMirchi, the subject is also a recipient of two Filmfare Awards South and two SIIMA Awards as Best Choreographer.--Ab207 (talk) 09:07, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep the Filmfare Awards are the top film awards in India so WP:NBIO is passed and this is certainly an important figure in contemporary Tamil cinema. Also this is a very dodgy nomination as it is the result of an editing disagreement (see article talk page) which is in contravention of WP:SCLOSE " A "speedy keep" outcome is also appropriate when the nomination unquestionably is an attempt to vandalize or to otherwise create disruption. For example: Nominations which are clearly an attempt to end an editing dispute through deletion (possibly in an attempt to game the system), when dispute resolution would be a more appropriate course." imv, Atlantic306 (talk) 19:50, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Also the filmography is no longer unreferenced as it has 14 references which were added after the nomination, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 20:02, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
