Doesn't appear to meet WP:GNG, provided sources are just WP:ROUTINE promotional press in the Times of India and don't back up the grandiose statements made in the article. While his (alleged) filmography is extensive, it's not clear that he has enough major roles in notable works to meet WP:NACTOR Searching for additional coverage, the most significant coverage I could find was some brief praise in this review [1], although it's possible that editors able to search in Bengali may be able to find more coverage. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 21:27, 18 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete : I agree with the nominator, most of the reliable and independent sources seem to be routine promotional press and very short. Couldn't find independent and reliable sources that extensively talk or critique his works. Clearly fails WP:GNG and for SNG, he doesn't seem to fulfill the criteria for WP:NACTOR.

Weak delete It seems odd that there doesn't seem to be much overage outside of the Times; I'm starting to get the impression that the Times allows PR piece submissions that are published as if they are regular articles (along the lines of Forbes "contributor.")
