Delete per nom Derevation (talk) 18:23, 28 December 2014 (UTC) --being nominator, you're supposed to favor deletion of article, no need to !vote twice.[reply]

• Comment -Subject appears to be meeting WP:NACTOR #1, for they have had significant roles in multiple notable films and tv shows. They recently played a major role in Creature 3D] film -[1], and 24 (Indian TV series) -that brought them full-page coverage in Times of India. Times of India in this source apparently confirms the WP:NACTOR #1 crtieria, that says, "Major Bikramjeet Kanwarpal, who has many serials and films to his credit, will be playing the important role of Abul Fazal." Few other sources are as following, 4, 5, etc. Majority of the sources however, are supposed to in Hindi and other Indian regional language sources. Here one should note that, an actor can be notable, even if they fail GNG. Anupmehra -Let's talk! 14:54, 6 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment : Just a few sites and blog are not enough. Plus blogs aren't reliable. Actor just known for his minor roles. Derevation^{Give Me Five} 11:56, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Wait! are you calling Times of India, Amar Ujala and India-West sites blog???? Anupmehra -Let's talk! 12:29, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• I think Derevation was counting them under "few sites", not blog. Rcsprinter₁₂₃ (gas) @ 17:50, 17 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Strong Keep -Subject meets Wikipedia's notability guideline on Actors that seeks, Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions. A quick glance at their works in multiple films testify "many notable films" criteria, and their coverage in the world largest reading English newspaper Times of India that says, "Major Bikramjeet Kanwarpal, who has many serials and films to his credit, will be playing the important role of Abul Fazal" further evidence the claim of their "significant role" in these multiple notable films. Their significant coverage in another Times of India that is fully subject-centric also fulfills the required, and another reputable source India-West -1 -that has had published him for his significant role in a notable film Creature 3D further attest the claim and substantiate the "WP:NACTOR" #1 criteria. Apart from these, they've also received significant coverage in Amar Ujala, a reputable daily Hindi newspaper -2 (it is in 3 pages, click on next that appears on bottom of story) for their work in Creature 3D film.

• Keep per the significant coverage in reliable sources found by Anupmehra (talk · contribs). This article^WebCite from the Times of India provides substantial coverage of the subject. WP:NACTORS is met because the subject "has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions". There are likely several offline Hindi sources about the subject as well, so it is likely that the subject passes Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline.
