  •  Doing... I am going to review this. Bubaikumar (talk) 12:17, 9 October 2013 (UTC)
  • Please add a proper Cast section below the plot. Bubaikumar (talk) 03:47, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
  • So I wait for a week for the review to be done, just to be asked to do something not required by DYK guidelines? What is this. ☯ Bonkers The Clown \(^_^)/ Nonsensical Babble ☯ 12:20, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
  • Dear Dear Dear, please note that "In practice, articles longer than 1,500 characters may still be rejected as too short, at the discretion of the selecting reviewers." I have full freedom to suggest any improvement to the article. And what is your problem in doing that. And please, keep PATIENCE. It will earn you good fruits.

  • Indeed it is your prerogative, but a cast section does not increase the article's length. It comprises bulleted points pertaining to the actors and their roles... These have already been mentioned in the "Plot" section (which, in contrast, does add to the article's prose count). So you quoting 2d) is not relevant here as even if a cast section is added (reiterating), the prose size will STILL BE THE SAME. And I have no problem in doing that; I just find it pointless and redundant. And I have patience. But patience is limited. At least for mine. ☯ Bonkers The Clown \(^_^)/ Nonsensical Babble ☯ 09:03, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
  • The plot section only mentions the names of a few character in the movies. But there were many other people involved with the film who need to be credited. That's why, I suggested to add a suitable cast section. Smile bro, else everything is good and the article is quite well-written. Bubaikumar (talk) 14:26, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
  • Just because you like cast lists doesn't mean I do. If your idea of a cast list is to indiscriminately list down everyone and anyone who has acted in this film, you're wrong. There's nothing wrong with an absence of a cast section. I have written way more film articles than you and I find that for this case, a cast list is not needed. I have had many successful DYK noms involving film articles without a cast list. Please judge this based on core guidelines rather than gritty details like such. Cast list or not, that does not affect anything. ☯ Bonkers The Clown \(^_^)/ Nonsensical Babble ☯ 12:06, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
  • As your wish mate. The article is new enough, long enough, no copyvio, image is okay, ready for main page. Bubaikumar (talk) 12:52, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
