- Delete. Films that are in pre-production should not have their own articles per WP:NFF. --Rob Sinden (talk) 11:37, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep IT. Film is set to go on floors on 29th August. Chech the news here(a reliable source). Karthik Nadar (talk) 12:14, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- "Hit the floors"? Does that mean that filming will start on that day? I'd draw your attention to WP:NFF which states: "Films that have not been confirmed by reliable sources to have commenced principal photography should not have their own articles". Also there are general notability concerns here - if filming is proven to have commenced, this doesn't automatically mean that notability has been met. --Rob Sinden (talk) 12:54, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Photoshoot was held, film set to go on floors from 5th sept, so no need to merge or delete it now - Behindwoods. Karthik Nadar (talk) 06:49, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Meets WP:NFF. There hasn't been any official announcement yet, not even the film's title is confirmed as such! Johannes003 (talk) 19:21, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect The guideline WP:NFF does not require nor demand deletion, and acts only to instruct when certain projects may not be ready for a separate article. If a planned film is getting press but is not quite ready for its own article, policy suggests we can speak about the topic, but in a spot where it might be spoken of in context... like at the director's article at Gautham Menon#Future ventures, 2011-present As for "Gautham Menon-Jeeva's Nithya to be launched on Aug 29" what "launch" usually means for Indian films is an official blessing and announcement of a film's production... a coming out party, if you might. So no... per guideline no article yet. But yes... per policy, and as pre-production is being written of, we can speak about the project where it best deserves to to be mentioned.

- No objection to the suggested redirect here. --Rob Sinden (talk) 07:51, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- No objection from me either, redirecting is also okay. Johannes003 (talk) 08:29, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect is better option. Karthik Nadar (talk) 09:28, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- No objection from my side. Redirecting would be a better option. --Commander (Ping Me) 10:29, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- No objection to the suggested redirect here. --Rob Sinden (talk) 07:51, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

- Delete and redirect - WP notability guidelines discourage articles on upcoming films, until they are in production. --Noleander (talk) 02:39, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect per WP:ATD. The film has not received enough coverage in the media to warrant an article, but the title would make a good redirect to the director's article. --Odie5533 (talk) 06:06, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
