Lekin...

Improved to Good Article status by Shshshsh (talk). Self-nominated at 23:44, 26 February 2022 (UTC).

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Looks good. Earwig returns just the quotes, which are cited. The hook is on the long side. Maybe the second half could be tightened, for example by removing "during filming" and "to capture" (or otherwise). It's right at the 200 character limit as it is. If you feel really strongly about it, I can just OK it and defer to the promoting user. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 14:23, 1 March 2022 (UTC) — Rhododendrites talk \\ 14:23, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for your review, Rhododendrites. What do you say about
"... that Dimple Kapadia, who played a ghost in the mystery film Lekin..., was forbidden to blink during filming because director Gulzar believed it would make her feel surreal?"
I just think "during filming" is essential because otherwise it's not clear when exactly she was forbidden to blink. ShahidTalk2me 14:37, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
@Shshshsh: I have to admit that I somehow overlooked ALT1, which is fine. My comment was in response to the length of the main hook. My mistake. Good to go here. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 04:00, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
