 * Delete - I'm struggling to assess all of the sources, even with Google translate, but I'm not seeing evidence of passing GNG. And simply on the basis of the content of the article, there doesn't seem to be anything that would amount to notability. No major films or TV series, and a relatively minor award.

 * Keep - According to WP:Notability, "Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article". Submitted sources of the article are genuine and all from printed media in malayalam language. 'The award' was presented to K. Narayanan about 12 years ago. Now, it is not possible to obtain its original links or sources. Because, the online editions started in Malayalam printed media (Daily & Other) before just 5 or 6 years ago. But, the detail of the award achievement is mentioned in the sources which are included the article. Kaitha Poo Manam (talk) 19:28, 18 December 2019 (UTC)

 * This article created with WP:Identifying and using independent sources and there are mainly 5 or more independent sources here. These sources are strongly discussing and indicating about Mr. Narayanan and his personal life and his film career. And, WP:Notability (people) says that,if the person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors is considerable for the notability of Wikipedia. Here, Narayanan has enough notability through with many reliable and independent sources. As per this, keep this article here. Kaitha Poo Manam (talk) 08:48, 27 December 2019 (UTC)

 * WP:Notability underlined that, "Determining notability does not necessarily depend on things such as fame, importance, or popularity..." This article follows Basic criteria with WP:Notability (people). Basic criteria says that "People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject." And, Basic criteria also says that, "People who meet the basic criteria may be considered notable without meeting the additional criteria below."Kaitha Poo Manam (talk) 18:02, 7 January 2020 (UTC)


 * If follows Basic criteria about an article For people, doesn't matter Additional criteria of WP:Notability (people) for a biographical article. So, this criteria, "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times" in Additional criteria, Any biography section is not relevant here. Because, this article is not related with Any biography section. It comes in Creative professionals section. In Creative professionals section, this article follows one criteria, "The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors."

 * WP:Notability says that "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list" and in Notability is not temporary section of WP:Notability says that "Notability is not temporary; once a topic has been the subject of "significant coverage" in accordance with the general notability guideline, it does not need to have ongoing coverage." Here, Mr. Narayanan has got enough significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources. Kaitha Poo Manam (talk) 18:49, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
