In May I prodded this article about “a forthcoming film” citing WP:Crystal, but it was de-prodded with the reason “refs say filming began in April 2010. per WP:NFF it is enough to keep the article, as this is a notable film starring notable actors”. It is now the end of August and the film has still not yet been released. It is not notable as an unreleased film. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Quable (talk) 20:47, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

Keep - Per WP:NFF. It is a notable film which is still filming and the [http://sify.com/movies/tamil/fullstory.php?id=14946723 filming] [http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/Entertainment/Regional/News-Interviews/A-romantic-getaway/articleshow/6017437.cms itself] is getting [http://sify.com/movies/fullstory.php?id=14947957 continuous] [http://entertainment.oneindia.in/tamil/exclusive/2010/manmadhan-ambu-kodaikanal-200810.html coverage]. The scheduled release date is first week of November 2010]. What we have here is a notable film with notable actors and notable director for which production work has began and the filming itself is being covered continuously in the media. enought to satisfy WP:NFF--Sodabottle (talk) 03:58, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
Speedy Keep with respects to the good faith of the nominator. Meeting WP:NFF is meeting WP:NFF. There is no demand that a project IN principle filming must be released immediately. Users Valli Narayanan and Sodabottle have shown it meeting both WP:NFF and WP:GNG. Consideration toward WP:BEFORE would have encouraged looking beyond current state to the sources available for improvement. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 01:53, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
Keep Article easily meets WP:NFF. There's no requirement that the film be completed or released to be notable. It should not have been nominated IMO. Zane Murphy (talk) 09:37, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
