Submission declined on 22 April 2025 by RangersRus (talk). The actor fails WP:NACTOR. Only one film "Jaaiye Aap Kahan Jaayenge" where the subject has played significant role and his performance has been reviewed by critics but one more such significant role is needed for the subject to pass notable actor criteria. I did look into the subject's role in film Baby but after reading multiple reviews by highly acclaimed critics, I did not find any mention on the subject's performance and role. Declined by RangersRus 32 days ago. | ![]() |
