Many things written about him in article fails WP:V. Making a search produces no notability (i.e. no notable source). Fails WP:GNG. Might also fails Subject specific guidlines too as he directed only one film for which he got only a nomination but never won.  Greenbörg  (talk)  08:15, 10 July 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete - searches turned up nothing to show that they pass WP:GNG.  Onel 5969  TT me 20:44, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete The sources cited are a wiki page, a BBS, a blog, and two production pages that aren't actually about the article subject. No indication of independent, WP:RS coverage.  Eggishorn (talk)(contrib) 23:36, 25 July 2017 (UTC) Keep Enough coverage has now been found to qualify under WP:GNG Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 20:44, 26 July 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep I had originally drafted a comment as "weak keep" (see User_talk:SoWhy) but missed out when SoWhy closed as an edit conflict. In the subsequent search for sources, Mar4d managed to find quite a few that I had not (please see User_talk:Mar4d). Dozens of mentions in notable sources, and although none of these sources by itself screams notability, his credit as a director of very notable films and TV, as well as his nomination for the 2014 Lux awards and other awards that he did win for Main Hoon Shahid Afridi (see the article) makes me think that he easily meets WP:CREATIVE (#3 and #4c). The article needs quite a bit of work, but should not be deleted. Pinging other contributors Eggishorn Greenbörg one15969 Saqib —  InsertCleverPhraseHere  20:42, 26 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Okay. This can be kept now. I just don't believe I missed to find the press coverage the subject has received. Thank you for your efforts to rescue this bio. --Saqib (talk) 05:17, 27 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Keep in concurrence with Insertcleverphrasehere's views, and the sources that were later explored on the subject.  Mar4d  ( talk ) 18:07, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
