Zulva is said in the article as book, where it has 'plot' and 'cast'. Anyway, the book does not meet WP:BKCRIT and we do not see its listing in any national library so it does not meet WP:BKTS also. In general does not meet WP:GNG. Chiro725 (talk) 20:53, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

• Comment. It has a 'cast' because the novel was adapted as a successful play. This is explained in the lead. pburka (talk) 00:25, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for the explanation. But possibly there is no reliable source from where we can assume the fact of its dramatic adaptation as verifiable. --Chiro725 (talk) 08:15, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

Are you claiming the play is a hoax? It's easily verified. pburka (talk) 13:57, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

pburka, not at all. Possibly I could not convey. What I meant is, this is undoubtedly a book, but its dramatic adaptation and the book itself are not sufficiently differentiated. My rationale for nomination was we can not have an article on a book for its merely being book. I could not find any reliable source to verify the fact 'The book Zulwa was adapted into a play written by Chetan Datar for Marathi theatre'. --Chiro725 (talk) 15:02, 22 September 2020 (UTC)

If you simply search Google Books for "Zulva Tupe", you'll find the play was presented by the Indian National Theatre (I think) and debated by the Lok Sabha. See [1] and [2]. It's certainly verifiable. pburka (talk) 15:34, 22 September 2020 (UTC)

• Redirect to Uttam Bandu Tupe, which mentions this topic by name. In general, if a title would make for a useful search phrase, please pursue such alternatives to deletion before nominating an article for deletion. The sourcing here is on the cusp. We're likely looking in the wrong language, but all that's been unearthed thus far is not sufficient for a dedicated encyclopedia article. Note that mr:झुलवा, a stub, doesn't have additional sources either. Makes sense to redirect to the author and expand summary style. (not watching, please {{ping}}) czar 00:58, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
• Redirect as suggested and per WP:NOTINHERITED. Bearian (talk) 00:06, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
• Redirect as suggested by Czar. No indication the actual subject of the article is notable. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 18:25, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
