Saraswathi Sabatham

Fails WP:MOVIE. Article does not assert notability using reliable, third-party sources. VG ☎ 09:36, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep. I'd be inclined to turn it into a stub, but I can't find any sources to back it. An Indian film in wide release would be notable, I think - but the fact that it is a 1966 film hampers sourcing. Hell, I'll write the stub right now, and maybe someone can source it and salvage the article. "{{references}} Saraswathi Sabatham is an Indian film directed by A.P. Nagarajan. It was released in 1966. {{India-film-stub}}" That's really it, I think. There is an IMDB page for it (here), so we know it exists.

Comment. This Google snippet shows that the film was a box office hit and this implies that it would be well-known to The Hindu's readership, but I can't find any substantial coverage in reliable sources. Phil Bridger (talk) 19:53, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom due to a lack of substantial coverage in reliable third party publications. Wikipedia is not a primary source. JBsupreme (talk) 04:52, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, film starred Sivaji Ganesan, who is notable, and was directed by A. P. Nagarajan, who is notable. According to Nagarajan's article, this film "started a trend in Tamil film making" (however, that claim is unsourced). There must be sources out there for this; just probably not many in Google due to the age of the film. Somno (talk) 02:23, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
