Full of puffery, unreliable or no relevant sources. Sunday Observer reads like a PR piece. Google search does not return anything at all. Overall doesn't meet WP:GNG. It's simply a spam and promotional article. RationalPuff (talk) 19:12, 17 February 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete Agree with puffery. Oaktree b (talk) 19:30, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete: puffery can be cleaned up and is not a reason to delete an article, but there's little to no coverage otherwise, which is. Gnomingstuff (talk) 01:19, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete The subject clearly fails to meet WP:GNG and also clearly written as per WP:PROMO. Its obviously written as a puffery with no neutral tone. Abishe (talk) 03:56, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete, with unsubstantiated statements like “he had become one of the richest entrepreneurs of Sri Lanka”, it’s clearly WP:PROMO. Fails WP:ANYBIO, lacks reliable independent secondary sources. Dan arndt (talk) 02:07, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
