• Delete due to concerns around WP:GNG and WP:NFILM Spiderone 19:16, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
• Strong keep - Added sources from a number of notable national newspapers - and there are dozens more online. Please bear in mind that this is a 1983 Tamil film - not sure what kind of in-depth coverage one can expect to find online. I can assure you that this is a notable film in Tamil cinema history. Keen to hear thoughts of those potentially well-versed with the subject matter: TamilMirchi, Srivin, Kailash29792, Terminator92 Neutral Fan (talk) 15:00, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

• Keep as the article has been expanded with the addition of multiple reliable sources that show a pass of WP:GNG so that deletion is unnecessary in my view, Atlantic306 (talk) 21:34, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
• Keep per some great WP:HEY teamwork by TamilMirchi, Kailash29792, and Neutral Fan. Meets WP:NFILM or WP:GNG. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 00:49, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
• Question and Comment: Since there were so many Keep votes I went back through the sources so see if I was wrong. I found nothing that comes close to meeting GNG or NFILM. Here is my run down on the sources:

• Bhaskar, Prashant. "Tribute to Manivannan". Behindwoods.

This article is about Manivannan, it mentions the film, but does not provide barely any information about the film, let alone directly or in-depth.

• மறக்க முடியுமா? - மவுன ராகம்". Dinamalar.

This article is about a different film, Mauna Ragam released in 1986. It does not mention the subject at all.

• "Happy Birthday, Mohan: 'Payanangal Mudivathillai' to 'Mouna Ragam', six films of the lovable star that had a Silver Jubilee in theaters". The Times of India.

This is a birthday tribute to an actor from the film. I mentions the film in one paragraph, but gives no details, let alone addressing the subject directly and in depth.

• Sunil, K. P. (29 November 1987). "The Anti-Hero". The Illustrated Weekly of India. Vol. 108. The Times Group. pp. 40–41.

Interview which mentions the film, but doesn't provide any details about the film, directly and in depth.

• "மொட்டைத் தலையுடன் சத்யராஜ் நடித்த நூறாவது நாள்". maalaimalar.com

An article about an actor, it mentions the film in a single sentence, but provides no information directly or in depth.

• "24 Mani Neram Tamil FIlm EP Vinyl Record by Ilayaraja". Mossymart.

This is an advertisement for a record. Nothing about the movie.

• "Villains with heroic pasts". The Hindu.

An article about Heroes who turned villains. It mentions the film when it says, "Sathyaraj essayed some powerful antagonistic roles in 24 Mani Neram, Vikram, and Kakki Sattai." This is all. Nothing that meet SIGCOV, directly and in depth.

• Balasubramaniam, Balaji. "Nooraavadhu Naal". BBthots.

This is a blog article and it's about another movie. It mentions the subject in a list when it says " villain of note with movies like 24 Mani Neram and Kaakki Sattai before..."...but there is no SIGCOV that addresses the subject directly or in-depth.

• "ஒரே வருடத்தில் மோகன் 15 படங்கள்; ஒரேநாளில் 3 படம் ரிலீஸ்; அத்தனையும் ஹிட்". Hindu Tamil Thisai

Article about an actor. It mentions the film in a list, but that's all.

I ask the keep votes, Neutral Fan, Kailash29792, TamilMirchi, Ab207, Atlantic306, AleatoryPonderings, what am I missing? Which of the above sources show SIGCOV that addresses the subject directly and in depth to meet NFILM or GNG? Show me and I will gladly change my vote to keep.   // Timothy :: talk  03:13, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
