The subject clearly fails WP:NACTOR. It is a promotional article as the subject participated in the recently aired reality show Cooku with Comali. The page has lot of edits from an IP involved in recent socky puppetry investigation Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Romil.Choudary/Archive. 2600:6C58:4B7F:6084:1994:1790:4070:5EB8 (talk) 22:19, 11 May 2021 (UTC)}}[reply]

Comment Completing nomination on behalf of IP editor--above text is copied from article talk page. No opinion at this time on the article per se, but if the SPI accusation is accurate (and having worked on other IP-nominated AfDs for articles created by the master mentioned above, I find it credible), then the article is eligible for speedy deletion per WP:G5. --Finngall ^talk 00:10, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete per WP:G5 as creator’s sockpuppetry has been confirmed by CU. --Finngall ^talk 02:46, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Passes WP:NACTOR as she has played in 3 multiple TV series, all spanning hundreds of episodes, and she is playing lead or recurring lead on the TV series, thus she plays "notable role". Google News search on her exact name would return around 3,000+ search results, indicating notability. A few of the results I sampled are correctly relating to her, whether about her life or about her work. Cooku with Comali is just one of her latest show, as she has played in TV series before. Based on the allegation of promotional tones, I don't think there is much of WP:PUFFERY and I think the article is worded quite neutrally.SunDawn (talk) 01:43, 12 May 2021 (UTC) Speedy delete per creator is blocked as a sock. Article should be rescued after speedily deleted. SunDawn (talk) 03:53, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

*Keep: Clearly passes WP:NACTOR no doubt. The upcoming film project she is being part of has declared her as the lead actress and the name of the film has been released. Even if its a sockpuppetry the user has gave a good piece of work and trustworthy sources.User: 49.196.6.191 talk: 49.196.6.191 00:51, 12 May 2021 (UTC) Striking blocked sock. --Finngall ^talk 03:56, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. That the article's creator has been confirmed by CU is sufficient alone to justify speedy deletion, as well as normal deletion under WP:AFD Johnnie Bob (talk) 22:17, 16 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
