Papparapaam

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Unreleased film that fails to establish notability. Interviews look like primary sources. No reliable two reviews. No release of notable soundtrack reviews or trailer (trailer removed from YouTube). Similar Tamil films sent to festival without reviews do not have articles, examples include Kida and Revelations. This source says "upcoming Tamil movie", which confirms that the movie is unreleased. The movie did not release on 14 August 2015 per this (the fact that there are no audience reviews means that the film did not release). The film did not release even in 2018 per this.

In conclusion, the film does not look it establishes notability as an unreleased film. This source says that it was sent to the Toronto International Film Festival but there is no confirmation of that from the official website.

 * Delete per nom, this upcoming film fails WP:NFF as the coverage is mostly routine, other WP:NFILM criteria are also failed. Most of the references appear to be interview-like (non-SIGCOV), using quotes and mainly focusing on the director and cast. The two references from The Hindu, 1, 2 appears to be more substantive, however, unfortunately they are largely dependent on non-independent quotes. Otherwise, the independent direct commentary outlines minor festivals and listing the cast, which is routine and fails WP:SIGCOV. My WP:BEFORE mainly found non-SIGCOV announcements, therefore I am at delete. However, do ping me if more references are found.  VickKiang   (talk)  21:59, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
