 * Keep Just two days ago, NDTV in India called it one of the "biggest hits" among films made in the Kannada language. Strong presumption of extensive reliable sources in the Kannada language, spoken by 50 million people.  Cullen 328   Let's discuss it  19:55, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

Comment. This should be moved to Kariya (film) to satisfy WP:NCF, and an entry should be placed on Kariya (disambiguation). Did not want to do this while discussion is taking place. --Rob Sinden (talk) 10:05, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep It's very easy to find the NDTV reference that Cullen mentions above and there's this from the Dainik Bhaskar which clearly states it had two releases, the first one running for 75 days and the next time it ran for 100 days. Film was released in 2003, Deccan Chronicle online archives don't go back that far. And apparently it was in theatres in 2010 and 2011. Vernacular and offline sources should be available in plenty for a movie like this. &mdash; Spaceman  Spiff  10:57, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep This is a notable film. It also created some controversy, which I have added to the article with a referenced news source.   D r e a m Focus  15:46, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep a 2003 film that has a successful re-release more than five yars later. Meets WP:NF.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 04:32, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Added to dab and created a redirect from the correct title, article can be moved when the AfD is closed. &mdash; Spaceman  Spiff  10:15, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
