The article duplicates List of highest-grossing Bollywood films which properly lists the net gross in a table so the reason they're highest grossing is visible. The other sections violate the WP:NPOV policy because it is based on personal opinion and otherwise unverified. Therefore, I believe there's nothing salvageable in the article.

- I'm also including List of top Tamil-language films in this nomination because if this nomination succeeds, the critical acclaim sections in this list should be removed and the article renamed to List of highest grossing Tamil-language films. - Mgm|(talk) 11:02, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
- Comment that's a split / rename, neither of which should be at AfD. AND GFDL history requires keeping, so you should just rename the article, and trim it to fit the new subject title. 76.66.193.90 (talk) 04:57, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
- Comment Yes, it is a split. I'm not arguing for the entire Tamil article to be deleted. I specifically said that it should be renamed and trimmed if the Bollywood nomination succeeds. - Mgm|(talk) 12:24, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
- Man I really don't want to get involved in afds anymore it was what caused me to retire for 2 years, but Merge. A lot of infomation there no need for dup article. Info does need more citations regardless. Valoem talk 15:05, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
- Delete both, per MGM and his cogent argument; the basic problem is in the first sentence, "popular and acclaimed," giving no suggestion of who would establish that. List of highest-grossing Bollywood films covers this much better, and I don't see anything worth merging either. Drmies (talk) 17:23, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
- Redirect List of top Bollywood films to List of highest-grossing Bollywood films as dupe, and likely search term. 76.66.193.90 (talk) 04:55, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
- Keep and Rename: Since there is already a List of highest-grossing Bollywood films, this article should be renamed to something like List of critically-acclaimed Bollywood films, where only the critically-acclaimed films should be included (like the Films considered the greatest ever article), with references of course. As for the Tamil film article, I think that should be split up into highest-grossing and critically-acclaimed articles in a similar manner. Regards, Jagged 85 (talk) 08:51, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

- Delete both as highly subjective and unencyclopedic. Who are these films critically acclaimed by, and how is "critical acclaim" defined? List of highest-grossing Bollywood films does this better. PC78 (talk) 12:01, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
- Delete - POV and OR. Important Bollywood films should be contextualized in the article detailing the history of the industry, not editorialized within an article that cannot possibly fall in line with any of our neutrality policies. Girolamo Savonarola (talk) 00:14, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

- Redirect to List of highest-grossing Bollywood films and removed irrevelant stuff that doesn't fit in "top-grossing" category. --Redtigerxyz Talk 04:14, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Redundant article that isn't as rigorous as the other and has more original research. Themfromspace (talk) 04:42, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
