Firstly, the only references in this article are to blogspot, violating WP:RS and WP:N. Secondly, considering that the article claims Niraj Kulkarni has done award-nominated work on the videogame Crysis, it's curious that a google search for 'niraj kulkarni crysis' only yields Wikipedia, Wikipedia mirrors and a few facebook and linkedin pages. Thirdly, curious that nobody by this name appears in Crysis' credits. Suspect hoax, but not quite confident enough to slap it with a {{db-hoax}} and have done with it. Previously PRODded by FisherQueen (talk · contribs) with the reason "The article does not make it clear how this person meets Wikipedia's notability criteria. The article lacks reliable, independent sources verifying the information here, and I was not able to find appropriate sources with my own search" (diff), but dePRODded without comment by Rahulshakor (talk · contribs) (diff).
