I have listed this article for GA reassessment because it was badly damaged by edit wars, content deletion and info not up-to-date (possibility of dead links). I want to therefore improve it. — Ssven2  speak 2 me 13:40, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

 * Comments from Kailash29792
 * Lead
 * Empty the lead of ref's as per WP:LEAD. But the same content must exist in the body with ref's.
 * Let the most notable cast members stay in the lead.
 * Template:Infobox film has a parameter "screenplay" which has not been utilised here.
 * Do some general copyediting, or at least remove whatever sounds informal, colloquial, figurative or idiomatic.


 * Plot
 * Seems fine, a few edits by a GOCE member should make it look best.

✅ Most notable members staying. — Ssven2  speak 2 me 04:30, 14 January 2015 (UTC) ✅ Removed the image. — Ssven2  speak 2 me 04:30, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Cast
 * Let the most notable members stay, while minor ones may also, if there is any source to prove their inclusion.
 * Production
 * Does this image satisfy WP:NFCC? I don't think so, and it should be uploaded through Commons with permission from the image's owner, who is The Hindu!

✅ Lstanley1979 has done a c/e on this section. CBFC expanded to Central Board of Film Certification. — Ssven2  speak 2 me 07:39, 4 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Release
 * This section needs serious copyediting, and "bagged" is not formal. Also, mention the Censor Board by its full name - the Central Board of Film Certification.

 * Box office
 * Information on the film's release can be shifted to "release".
 * "It grossed $101,779 in its full run in South Africa." - source?

✅ as asked. — Ssven2  speak 2 me 04:30, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
 * 3D conversion
 * This section can be renamed to "3D re-release".

✅ named review sites. — Ssven2  speak 2 me 04:30, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Critical response
 * Many review sites are not referred to here by name, when they should be.

✅ sourced. — Ssven2  speak 2 me 04:30, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Accolades
 * Source the entire section.

✅ removed the section. Placed it in my sandbox. Will expand upon the content when I go for FAC. — Ssven2  speak 2 me 04:30, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
 * In Popular Culture
 * Decapitalise "Popular Culture", and expand upon the content.

✅ as asked. — Ssven2  speak 2 me 04:30, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Soundtrack
 * This section better come after "Production" and before "Release".

I think the other mishaps in the article are glaring and explicit enough for you to correct. Kailash29792 (talk) 14:47, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

Some minor points:
 * Comments:
 * I suggest to merge the lead into three paragraphs.
 * "Shankar was paid a record salary of ₹ 30 million for this project". In the sentence, you do not need to have space after INR and so with the succeeding one.
 * I suggest to tweak one of the sentences that have "record salary" as both look almost same thing.
 * In the casting section, Nayantara and Asin need to be linked.
 * I suggest to shift the sentence from the sub-section "Visual effects". The sub-section is not needed when it has only one sentence.
 * The full stop (.) is missing in the first sentence of Release section.
 * "The kanjira is a South Indian frame drum, is an instrument of the tambourine family." does not look sound to me. -- FrankBoy (Buzz) 12:28, 4 February 2015 (UTC)
