Comments from HAL[edit]

  • His birth year of 1932 is not supported by the provided reference.

  • A couple of sentences here with "and ... and ..." which isn't great prose.
Done —Nicholas Michael Halim (talk) 06:50, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • The film you describe "about incest" is noted as a "Indian romantic musical drama film" in our article. Somewhat different tone...
From ref #14: "With shades of incest, Lamhe caused more than a flutter and remained the talk of the town till the time Chopra introduced Shah Rukh to film audiences as an anti-hero with Darr." —Nicholas Michael Halim (talk) 06:50, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • "attracted a large enough audience to be declared as a commercial success" what is that benchmark?

Pamzeis[edit]

Please forgive me if I screw anything up...

  • the drama Waqt about a family who are separated after a natural disaster. — kinda awkward
  • won him a first Best — a first for him or something else?
  • popularity had begun to → popularity began to
  • feature was named as the — delete "as" as redundant
  • were popular among the audience — were the films box office successes? Or did audiences give them positive reviews? Clarify
  • Also "the audience" is kinda vague
  • several well-performing films — kinda vague. Can we be more specific (e.g. commercial and critical successes)?
  • films including Mohabbatein (2000) — should there be a comma after "films"?
  • for its sensitive portrayal — WP:VOICEy

Ping me once these are resolved! Pamzeis (talk) 07:56, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
