I'll review this article shortly. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 05:38, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Here are the issues I found with the article.

There are five disambiguation links [1] and there is one deadlink in the references [2] that need to be addressed.
The three film images in the article fail our non-free criteria and should be removed/deleted.
A lot of the refs are bare urls; for these, titles, access dates, publishers, etc. need to be added. Others may have only one or two of the required fields, and should have more filled in as well.
I'm not sure about the reliability of some of these sources. Ref #60, for example, should not be used as blogs are not a reliable source.
"He attended the Acharya Patasala for elementary education and had his higher education at the Ramakrishna Mission in Bangalore." should be cited
"and also financially supported him for 2 years during his studies" write out single digit numbers (two)
The Breakthrough section has no cites, and neither does the first rise to stardom para
"Be it the sadistic husband of Sujatha in Avargal or the wolf in sheep's clothing in Moondru Mudichu or the lust-filled village rowdy in Bharathiraja's 16 Vayadhinile, he did with so much perfection." these types of sentences need to be cut from the article; not encyclopedic in the slightest.
While the prose isn't too bad, a copyedit for tone and tweaking would be beneficial.

Because of how major some of the issues I found are, I don't think they can could realistically be handled well within the hold period, and as a result I have to fail this article now. Should the issues above be dealt with, it can always be re-nominated at GAN. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 04:51, 3 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
