Wikipedia is not a memorial. Link farm was prodded; prod was removed by article's originator with the edit comment "He was not under treatment for long time... He was admitted to Hospital just two days before..." Disclosure department: I was the editor who seconded the prod when virtually the entire article was external links.

 * Keep. Even though Wikipedia is not a memorial, we still have plenty of articles about dead people. The article has three reasonably long newspaper articles (two in English) as references which suggests that he passes the general notability guideline. One of the songs he performed is referred to as a "chart buster'. It would be helpful if someone with access to Indian music charts could confirm whether one or more of his songs charted. The links to YouTube should probably be removed because of copyright. The brief ScreenIndia.com obituary at http://www.screenindia.com/news/aika-daajiba-70-per-cent-complete/548526/ (near the bottom of the page) indicates that his death was of sufficient importance to be mentioned in a film industry publication.

 * Keep - Obituaries in Asianet, Indian Express,, Screen India and nowrunning, show his notability. Article needs to be cleaned up and copy edited. (Image seems to be a copyvio)--Sodabottle (talk) 07:07, 15 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Withdraw nomination (speedy keep) - now that it is a referenced stub (and not a memorial linkfarm) that demonstrates that the subject qualifies under WP:BIO, the nomination is hereby withdrawn. Thanks to User:Sodabottle who was instrumental to the article's transformation. B.Wind (talk) 16:13, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
