Non-notable collection of short stories; after removing "references" (with explanations in edit summary) which were not reliable or independent sources, no references were left to speak of. The article author,, has also defended a hardly notable short story by an author who has a book coming up with the publisher of the subject of this nomination; and a draft of an article about another book from this publisher, with refs mostly taken from the Facebook of the publisher and the author, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Koto_Bhoot!_Ki_Adbhut! is currently in the works]. This same user appears to be knowledgeable about the parent company of the publisher, which is strange for a regular fan of films and books that she on the surface appears to be. Note that the draft mentioned above is of a book that comes out tomorrow (Indian timezone), so it's weirdly timed if we are talking about a random fan, but speaks to the excellent project execution skills if we are talking about someone who is on the launch team. This raises concerns about whether there is a conflict of interest here. Funny that the user also claims that she "created more than 50 articles and always tried to write it in a neutral point of view, never intended to promote someone or something". I'm saying we should probably start taking defenses of obviously non-notable products by this person with a grain of salt. ––Latreia (talk) 22:31, 21 November 2017 (UTC)
 * UPD: I've determined that the article author (Taniya94) runs a small sockpuppet ring. Evidence to be found here. Not her fault, most probably, just her job, and I've probably gotten her in trouble, right before a major release. Sorry. ––Latreia (talk) 23:00, 21 November 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete--After release it has became one of the best-selling books of this era--How much were you paid to write this statement?!Zero notability.And almost nil reviews (or even one-line mentions) in prominent Bengali dailies. Winged Blades Godric 06:34, 22 November 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete - There references that were in the article as of this version are what is stated by the nominator. It's a mixed bag of unreliable sources such as blogs, or directory listings or references that don't even mention the subject and confirm nothing.  This looks like a case of reference bombing to make the article look well-referenced when in fact it woefully referenced. -- Whpq (talk) 11:27, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Not nearly enough coverage to establish significant notability. Could also be a COI issue with the article creator. Boomer VialHolla! We gonna ball! 21:27, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
