 * Delete - I began searching Google News with "Mohit Chauhan actor" but received results for the singer so I started adding Chauhan's films, starting with "Zameen" but no success. When I searched "Chak de India", Google News provided minor mentions through the film and one insufficient review here for Second Marriage Dot Com (his most recent film). It is certainly possible that additional sources are not English, but if that is the case or not, there is an insufficient amount of significant sources for Mohit Chauhan himself (aside from the small mentions).

 * Comment: The entire motive of starting this article was to clear the confusion between the actor and the singer. Most people get confused between the actor and the singer as there is no mention anywhere of the actor. While creating the article, I tried to find out references but could not find any reliable ones. Hence, added only two. But as he has acted in some films, sources might be coming somewhere in the future. Its upto you folks to keep or delete this article now. B Positive   (talk)   04:04, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep Google News search is often not helpful (at least for Indian articles). There are treasures hidden in The Times of India and specially The Telegraph (Calcutta). But, I almost never get the best TOI and specially Telegraph results in Google News. For example, when I clicked on the "News" link above, it returned "no result", but when I manually searched in Times of India etc I found few good results including this one (Note: Please check if this is the Mohit Chauhan we are talking about, if so, I'll change add my vote). I don't follow other Indian newspapers (Indian Express,Deccan Herald, The Hindu etc). If manually searched I think we can get some more results. --Tito Dutta (talk) 06:03, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Changing vote to "Keep". Subject is playing an important character in "Second Marriage Dot Com" which is being covered by multiple websites --Tito Dutta (talk) 06:12, 29 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Weak keep: As per links provided by Titodutta, especially the TOI's link which attributes to him. -- ♪Karthik♫ ♪Nadar♫ 09:26, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep as per Tito Dutta. Will additionally try to look for sources in The HIndu and thru Highbeam. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 09:47, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment: IMDb seems to have confused him with singer Mohit Chauhan. But the acting section on the page lists 7 films Second Marriage Dot Com, Life Express, Prince, Detective Naani, Dil Kabaddi, Chak De! India and Dhoom 2. Are they referring to our subject here? §§ §§ {T/C} 10:18, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. Meets the general notability guideline. Coverage by secondary sources has been demonstrated by Titodutta.-- xanchester  (t)  15:08, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
