I don't see coverage adequate to demonstrate notability. Dennis Brown | 2¢ | WER 17:36, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
- This has been a very popular Bollywood movie magazine. Anyone with reasonable interest in Bollywood would vouch its importance. Please do not delete the article. Thanks Randhir 22:08, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
- I don't doubt it is popular, I just didn't see any articles talking about the magazine itself. If you have sources, in any language, please provide. Dennis Brown | 2¢ | WER 22:17, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

- Strong keep Widely read film magazine in India. As an example, see this page, in which the author states that this is nationally available film magazine with wide readership. Or, here, in which a discourse on brand building mechanism, the author says that a rival magazine (Filmfare) tries to make Cine Blitz appear as synonymous with sensationalism. Or, this short newspaper profile.--Dwaipayan (talk) 17:09, 27 July 2014 (UTC)
Comment: @Dwaipayanc: I think you should support the article with these references but I am not sure about the reference from afaqs and even the reference that you have given from google books is talking about some kind of advertisement but still it lacks significant coverage. And I am afraid to say that this article even fails WP:NMAG#Criteria, it says-
- The periodical has made significant impact in its field or other area, such as higher education
- The periodical has received a notable award or honor at a national or international level.
- The periodical is or was the proceedings of a highly selective and prestigious scholarly society or association (e.g. a National Academy of Sciences or the Royal Society).
- The periodical has had regular and significant usage as a citation in academic or scholarly works.
And if there is any, the keeper/support should mention in the article. CutestPenguin {talk • contribs} 17:38, 27 July 2014 (UTC)
- Sorry to have cited the wrong WP policy. What I intended to state was WP:NME, which states "Notability is presumed for newspapers, magazines and journals that verifiably meet through reliable sources, one or more of the following criteria:
- have produced award winning work
- have served some sort of historic purpose or have a significant history
- are considered by reliable sources to be authoritative in their subject area
- are frequently cited by other reliable sources
- are significant publications in ethnic and other non-trivial niche markets
- Our case, Cine Blitz, is a significant publication (as mentioned in some sources, such as one of the top 3) in a non-trivial niche market (Indian film industry). This now has been mentioned in the article, with reference.--Dwaipayan (talk) 19:44, 27 July 2014 (UTC)
