Keep the coverage appears to be occasioned by his death, assessing the career of someone prominent who has died, not about his death, as would be the case if someone was murdered or died in an unusual way. This kind of editorial obituary coverage actually establishes notability under GNG. Jahaza (talk) 18:50, 13 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Career includes non-notable projects, that too without proper citations. Fails Wp:NACTOR. Zuck28 (talk) 18:57, 13 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - tragic, but his supposed great contributions to a niche cinema have no articles and no citations. Bearian (talk) 23:25, 28 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete— All WP:BLP1E sources. Even if some dive into his career, the sources primarily cover his death. If the subject were truly notable, there would likely be significant coverage from before their death as well. EmilyR34 (talk) 08:42, 7 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete fails WP:NACTOR and GNG. Behappyyar (talk) 05:30, 8 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Delete or Draftify— The sources so far do hint the subject's potential notability, however been unable to specifically find sources to support it, (english at least) highlighting the subject's pre death prominence instead. This maybe the closest, to complicate matters I have also been getting hits from a another subject with similar name " Bunty Singh" see this hit from Google news as an example, key diff is the subject being discussed real name is Gurmeet Singh, made a check in the subjects alternate language wiki version but seems likely identical citations after a bried MTL check to translate the citation titles. Perhaps if any Wikipedians more familiar with the local news of the subject to add more context to this discussion, therefore Draftify would be my more cautious vote.
