 * Keep he is playing opposite Trisha Krishnan in Chennaiyil Oru Mazhaikalam and I have added the source. Kipof (talk) 20:55, 8 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete NN. One role in upcoming film of unknown quality.  Not encyclopedia material. Thetrick (talk) 21:05, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
 * What's quality got to do with it? That's an opinion not a fact. Trisha Krishnan is notable in the film. What happens if people want to find out about this actor Veera? If you don't want to keep it, why don't you redirect it to the film article and keep the information there? Kipof (talk) 21:23, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Read WP:BIO and WP:NF. --Thetrick (talk) 22:02, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
 * The film is directed by Gautham Menon, who is well known. Also has music by A.R. Rahman which again makes it notable, and of worth. thauseef —Preceding comment was added at 22:20, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Even if the film has the potential in the future to be notable because the director is well known (for Tamil language films, not English or even Hindi films), the actor is clearly not. One upcoming role in one of the hundreds of Indian films released each year does not make an actor notable.  Right now the actor might merit an entry in IMDB but not in an encyclopedia.  Wikipedia is not a place for up-and-coming actors to launch their careers. --Thetrick (talk) 23:15, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes that is true. But supposing people want to know more about this actor eventually, considering that interest is building up, and is always associated with any movie made by Gautham Menon, at least in Southern India, which a person from elsewhere might find hard to understand, it becomes essential to provide at least the basic information, which is what this page has attempted to provide. I guess the purpose of Wikipedia, is provide extensive information. What I suggest, as an alternative, is keeping the page..at least what has been confirmed, and adding on to it, if and when more content/information is available. --Thauseef  —Preceding comment was added at 21:22, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia is not the place for everyone who potentially might be famous one day to build a following. Let the actor develop his own website and do link-farming on his own dime.  When his career merits his inclusion in an encyclopedia then someone can re-create the article.  --Thetrick (talk) 23:46, 9 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete potentially a conflict of interest. This article was created by Thauseef, a single purpose account to publicise this person who has no signs of fulfilling any of the criteria of WP:BIO. Ohconfucius (talk) 04:43, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
