Cannot find any independent in-depth coverage in reliable sources, either those in the article or elsewhere online - lack of WP:SIGCOV. Fails WP:BIO and WP:CREATIVE. Cannot see any proper reviews for any of her films either. Edwardx (talk) 18:50, 22 April 2022 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Less Unless (talk) 06:24, 30 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Actors and filmmakers and Women. Shellwood (talk) 19:25, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep The article includes a 1991 review of her film One Hand Don't Clap when she was known as Kavery Dutta: Review/Film; Calypso, Past and Present, As Two Veterans See It (New York Times), a 2006 review of Long Way From Home from Film Threat, and a 2012 review in the journal Anthropology Now for her film Back Walking Forward, and what appears to be a review from Newsday. My online search finds a 2021 review of The Bengali by BroadwayWorld, a mention of Long Way From Home in context by the New York Times in 2015, as well as a 2013 article in FirstPost and a 2013 article in CNN about her and one of her films. A search for "Kavery Dutta" on GScholar brings up a variety of results, including a discussion of her film One Hand Don't Clap in Crafting Truth: Documentary Form and Meaning at p. 50, and a dicussion of the impact of her film in Seeking a voice: South Asian women's groups in North America at 400. Via the Wikipedia Library, there is a review of Back Walking Forward  from Library Journal in 2012, a 2006 review of Long Way from Home from Video Business (via Gale), two 2013 articles from The Telegraph about the making of one of her films (both via Gale), the 1991 Newsday review titled "Celebrating The Culture Of Calypso" (via ProQuest), 1991 reviews from Variety, The Village Voice, New York Amsterdam News and The Wall Street Journal for One Hand Don't Clap (via ProQuest), and a 2016 article about her published by IANS: "Kavery Kaul on mission to explore 'shifting sands of culture'" (via ProQuest, e.g. "A graduate of Harvard University, Kaul has been awarded a Fulbright Fellowship, a New York Foundation for the Arts Artist's Fellowship, multiple New York State Council on the Arts grants and two National Endowment for the Arts awards."). She appears to have WP:CREATIVE notability as the creator of a collective body of work that has been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews.

 * Delete: as per nom. - Hatchens (talk) 04:36, 25 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep Based on the very careful explanation of Beccaynr which demonstrates WP:CREATIVE notability, specifically criterion three whereby there is a collective body of work and that work is the subject of multiple independent reviews. CT55555 (talk) 13:22, 25 April 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Keep: Notable as per Beccaynr. SL93 (talk) 18:14, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
