In the media

1. Move sources to end of line
2. Last para about deepfake - Place the sources appropriately at the end of the sentences cited. Do not do WP:CITEOVERKILL at the end.

General and additional comments

1. Regarding citations, please use uniform and standard formatting across the article. For all news sources, use "cite news" with newspaper tag used with link such as newspaper=The Times of India. Dates shall be in uniform formatting, better to have it in the format "1 December 2023" rather than different formats like "2023-12-01" or "01-12-2023" or "1 December 2023".

19Arham, it would be better if you address each comment specifically and indicate the progress on how you had addressed it. On dipstick, there are still comments which are unaddressed. (E.g. still citations have all CAPS) You also seemed to have removed the entire section of her upcoming/future films, any reason? Magentic Manifestations (talk) 05:28, 3 May 2024 (UTC)

Most comments on have been addressed. Please work on the citation formatting. Refer to comments on 2a. and general comments section above. Magentic Manifestations (talk) 13:01, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

Will do now 19Arham (talk) 13:30, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

Citation formatting has been altered, the two that had been capitalised have been handled 19Arham (talk) 13:47, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

Still the formatting issue with the citations remain as is. There needs to be uniformity in the citations:

a. Either use Cite/cite

b. Link all the work/newspaper/publishers in the citations

c. Use cite news with newspaper for all news citations, cite web for web references uniformly etc.

d. Language is not required for English citations, it is default! Magentic Manifestations (talk) 07:24, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

I'm slightly confused on what the issue is, I'm genuinely not saying you're wrong I just don't understand what's being asked of me. Sorry. 19Arham (talk) 12:22, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

Fixed all capitalised ''Cite'' references, all dates are in the same format, web and newspapers have been wl. anything else? 19Arham (talk) 12:26, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

This review has been prolonging due to lingering issues. You have been making conflicting edits, adding/making unwarranted changes apart from review comments.

a. Why have you moved the Forbes line to the top of the lead section? It is a list which can at best be mentioned later and not required in the first para of the lead.

b. "sponsored by American dermatology brand Clean & Clear" - too much explanation is not required as the brand is already linked

c. "Shetty offered her the role after discovering her following a pageant win." - "Shetty offered her the role after coming across her in a beauty pageant" seems better

d. "For the film, she learnt a new dialect of Telugu known as Chittoor." - What is this? Chittoor is a place and not a dialect of Telugu. Either it should be, she learnt the Chittoor dialect of Telugu or simply a new dialect as it was previously.

Also, have clearly explained the issues with the citations. Repeating the same:

a. You need to link the publisher or source to the respective article across the citations. For e.g. in #34, "The Times of India" is not linked

b. "Language=en" parameter is not required as English is default.

c. You need to use "cite news" uniformly for all the news articles with either newspaper or work used in the corresponding citation. E.g. "cite web |date=2018-09-11 |title=Imaikkaa Nodigal leads TN box-office for second consecutive weekend ...|website=Firstpost-us" should rather be "cite news |date=2018-09-11 |title=Imaikkaa Nodigal leads TN box-office for second consecutive weekend; Geetha Govindam continues its rise ... |newspaper=Firstpost"

So once I finish all of this, the article can be promoted? Sorry for the conflicting edits as well. 19Arham (talk) 12:36, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

Let me know once you are done with the required changes. If there are no further issues, it can get through! Magentic Manifestations (talk) 05:33, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

Everything is finally finished. Thank you so much for your help! 19Arham (talk) 21:07, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

I guess the article has been sufficiently improved to satisfy the criteria. Congrats on your first GA! Magentic Manifestations (talk) 04:04, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
