Prahalada (1939 film)

(edit nomination page)

... that Prahalada was made 20 times in numerous languages including Hindi, Gujarati, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Bengali and Assamese and is also the only story which has been made so many times, often with success?

Currently too short. 651 characters of prose only. It needs to be 1,500 or more. Ka Faraq Gatri (talk) 11:26, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

I have expanded the article. --Commander _{(Ping Me)} 14:51, 19 August 2011 (UTC)

Still underreferenced. Crisco 1492 (talk) 05:48, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

This is a short article about an old film. I have added a book source now. --Commander _{(Ping Me)} 20:16, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

Still missing references. "major hit at the box office?" 1967 remake? Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:01, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

Done --Commander _{(Ping Me)} 10:46, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

The Hindu source dates the movie as 1941, not 1939... I'm confused. Per WP:TRIVIA, the trivia section should be merged into the body of the article. Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:34, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

Ya it talks about two different films made in 1939 and 1941 respectively. However, both films have the same story line.--Commander _{(Ping Me)} 15:44, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

And the trivia section? Crisco 1492 (talk) 16:02, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

I could not find a suitable section for merging that, so incuded that in lead. --Commander _{(Ping Me)} 01:35, 27 August 2011 (UTC)

Okay. I will try and copyedit the article first, then I will approve. ALT hook: ... that Prahalada was made 20 times in numerous languages, with the remakes generally being successful at the box office?

Okay, I've copyedited the article. It is a little on the short side, but I think it is ready to pass. Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:37, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
