Fails WP:GNG and WP:NFILM. Don't see enough reviews or any reports on the aftermath of this documentary for verifying the notability. WalkingDisks (talk) 09:59, 11 January 2020 (UTC)

 * one time coverage/newsbursts isnt considered sustained coverage required to prove notability. —usernamekiran(talk) 13:07, 11 January 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep passes WP:GNG with significant coverage in multiple reliable sources, also WP:Notability is not temporary, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 23:16, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Your guideline link states: "Notability is not temporary; once a topic has been the subject of "significant coverage" in accordance with the general notability guideline", which is contrary to your meaning. Spare that guideline link for a person like Irenaeus, not for the subject that fails WP:NFILM. Aman Kumar Goel(Talk) 15:07, 13 January 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Read WP:GNG significant coverage is multiple reliable sources as already shown Atlantic306 (talk) 00:41, 20 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Yeah, to achieve "notability is not temporary" status, the subject has to achieve the notability first. Also, would you kindly provide the sources where you found the significant coverage of subject? Thanks. —usernamekiran(talk) 16:21, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
 * It obviously passes WP:GNG with the coverage listed above, notability is not supposed to be akin to the search for the holy grail, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 00:39, 20 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep Content may need beefing up but passed WP:GNG. PenulisHantu (talk) 06:16, 19 January 2020 (UTC)
 * delete WP:NRVE states: No subject is automatically or inherently notable merely because it exists: the evidence must show the topic has gained significant independent coverage or recognition, and that this was not a mere short-term interest. After a thorough search, what I found was news bursts after the documentary was released. The coverage simply stopped after a few weeks from release. There is no sutained coverage of the documentary. Notability can not be established without sustained coverage. The documentary also fails the notability guidelines for films/documentaries, it doesnt have other evidence of notability either. —usernamekiran (talk) 01:13, 20 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep: I agree with PenulisHantu, there are enough sources to pass WP:GNG. Shashanksinghvi334 (talk) 06:45, 21 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep: Passes both WP:NFILM as well as WP:GNG based on the sources presented above and my own searches. The film reviews have been published in major newspapers of India.   D Big X ray ᗙ  05:47, 25 January 2020 (UTC)
