Keep
Comment: The article complies with the guidelines laid down in Wikipedia:Notability (people). The WP:BASIC is met as there is significant coverage of the person and as per WP:ANYBIO, Shaunak Sen's film All That Breathes won the Grand Jury Prize in World Cinema Documentary Competition at 2022 Sundance Film Festival and Golden Eye award for the best documentary at 2022 Cannes Film Festival. His previous documentary Cities of Sleep was screened at NYIFF, TIDF, and MIFF. Both the documentaries are on social issues. WP:FILMMAKER criteria is also met as his works have been appreciated widely. On Rotten Tomatoes his film has a 100% approval rating based on reviews from 26 critics, with an average rating of 8.50/10. Considering all these I recommend that the article be retained.

keep currently there seems to be enough coverage about the person to have any notability issue. Sajaypal007 (talk) 07:54, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep WP:FILMMAKER is easily realized. Have been hearing so much about him. I woke up with thought of creating article for him finding that one exists and is in AFD. Laptopinmyhands (talk) 13:53, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep If you Google you can see a lot of news coverages from reliable sources like The Hindu, The New Indian Express, The Gurdian, The New Work Times, The Indian Express, BBC. It shows that the person is widely cited. So according to Wikipedia's rule Shaunak Sen is meeting WP:GNG. Trakinwiki (talk) 12:18, 14 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
