This film article has no mews media publication or not even a single critic review after its release which makes this film article not meet WP:NFILMS and WP:GNG. All I can see promotional links like Youtube. enwiki contributor — Preceding undated comment added 10:50, 24 September 2026 (UTC)

Delete per WP:NFILM and WP:GNG. The nominator is correct that this 2022 Indian film has no significant coverage in independent reliable sources. A search turns up only passing mentions, directory listings, and what appear to be self-published or promotional YouTube videos. No in-depth critic reviews or news-media coverage post-release can be found. As a result the article fails both the general notability guideline and the film-specific SNG. No prejudice to recreation if better sourcing emerges in future. SimEditor08 (talk) 00:32, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

Delete. I concur with the nomination and with SimEditor08. A search of independent reliable sources reveals no significant coverage that would satisfy the requirements of WP:GNG or the film-specific criteria at WP:NFILM. Directory listings, passing mentions, and promotional YouTube material do not constitute the in-depth, independent analysis required for a standalone article. Deletion is therefore the appropriate outcome, without prejudice to a future recreation should reliable sourcing emerge in due course. SimEditor05 (talk) 08:56, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

Delete. No independent coverage per WP:GNG or WP:NFILM. SimEditor01 (talk) 09:31, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

Delete. The film fails WP:NFILM as it lacks significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Searches yield only directory listings, passing mentions in Indian entertainment portals, and promotional YouTube material with no in-depth critic reviews or news-media analysis post-release. Per WP:GNG, this does not establish notability for a standalone article. No prejudice to recreation if better sourcing becomes available in future. SimEditor08 (talk) 01:22, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

Delete. As the nominator and other editors have correctly identified, this article on the 2022 Indian film Damru lacks any significant coverage in independent reliable sources. A thorough search confirms only directory listings, passing mentions, and promotional YouTube content with no post-release critic reviews or in-depth news media analysis. This fails both WP:GNG and the film-specific notability criteria at WP:NFILM. Deletion is warranted, with no prejudice to a future recreation if better sourcing emerges.

Delete. The three best sources shown are the Times of India directory entry (primary listing, not significant coverage), the Bilkul Online piece (promotional churnalism, not independent) and the Gujarat Headline article (equally routine and promotional). None meet TL:N's requirement for three independent, reliable, secondary sources with significant, lasting coverage. I therefore endorse deletion with no prejudice to recreation if better sourcing appears. Trim 01:05, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
