This is so smarmy and so tainted with tabloid journalism that I can't decide from the "sources" whether the underlying subject is actually notable or just being fawned upon by her groupies. Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  18:21, 13 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete LinkedIn profile says she was a editor and publisher of an online mag,Cafe Celeb Magazine until 2006, but doesn't make here notable. Some of the films are on IMDB but she's not listed. Can't find anything else.scope_creep (talk) 21:30, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep 40,000 google hits. Details of Bollywood film makers can be hard to dredge up sometimes, but IMDB actually does list her as director of Mummyji (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1112725/), and the film received coverage in the Bombay Times with a specific mention of her (http://www.mummyjithefilm.com/media.html).

 * response - Googlehits are not a valid measure of anything; and IMDb listings do not constitute notability or even an assertion of same. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  05:40, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
 * The Bombay times article is "secondary source material which is reliable, intellectually independent, and independent of the subject," as is the IMBD so I maintain that she is notable. Handschuh-talk to me 06:07, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
 * IMDb is neither a reliable source nor significant coverage; heck, even I have an IMDb listing, and I'm certainly not notable. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  07:07, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
 * You're right, IMDb is not a reliable source. Handschuh-talk to me 10:47, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Her film Mummyji has been reviewed here. It seems like she has a body of work in Hindi that may be difficult to find sources for.  I'd say Keep and improve.--Johnsemlak (talk) 05:55, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep and improve. There are at least two non-trivial English references here for a primarily Indian director.  I'm pretty sure there are many more non-English ones.    Th e S te ve   18:32, 22 November 2010 (UTC)
