The Star Parivaar Awards are a promotional, self-aggrandising award where the Star television network lavishes praise on shows and actors that appear on its own network. Seethis RFC.
SeeWP:DADASAHEB - Short story: the name of an exclusive national lifetime achievement award, theDadasaheb Phalke Award, has been co-opted by award mills, and diluted in the media by journalists who ask no follow-up questions.
Article at LiveMint.com - "Why Indian box office collections depend on who you ask. For the 103-year-old Indian film industry, there is no single authentic source that reports box-office collections of movies"
) - Name has been submittedhundreds of times dating back to June 2016. Name has never been accompanied by a reference, and in 99.99% of the cases, it was submitted by an Iranian IP-hopper. (Ex: 5.209.250.52, 89.196.133.241, 5.239.147.207, 37.129.203.41, 151.235.1.131, etc.) Submitting users have never participated in discussion. User also has competence issues, likehere where they generate wikilinks off another person's name. Note also that despite their assertion the Shayan was involved in this, his name doesn't appearat iTunes. The wikilink fail is also seenhere and it is a fairly common thing they do. Samehere where an Iranian IP stuffs his name into an article, when there are zero reliable sources to substantiate it. The push by Iranian IPs is also very bizarre. Note alsothis addition in February 2018, which was picked up byFirstpost. The addition by the Iranian IP is clear vandalism, since the film's music credits do not mention either Komail Shayan or A. R. Rahman.
) As of May 2017, articleSangamithra has been created three times, with zero attempts to establish principal photography. Looks very much like paid editing scenario.
) - Nov 2019 - Brought to my attention by Kailash. Problem flared up in early October 2019,[5] but I found a 2016 instancehere atRustom (film). Persistent vanity additions of "Bhaumik Gondaliya" into the producer and/or starring parameters of Indian film articles, typically Hindi. IP hopper from Gujarati. Gondaliya's name does not appear on the Rustom film poster, so this name appears to always be a disruptive inclusion.
) - July 2020 - UserDiya.diya23 was repeatedly adding content written by this person into articles. As of this note (24 July 2020) there are only two mentions of this person's name in the encyclopedia, and they're in the references atOm Swami.
) - November 2020 - Kept adding his name to Indian films claiming to be an editor. He claimed to have edited Toilet: Ek Prem Katha. I checked the credits and didn't find him. Attempted twice to createDraft:Umesh kaushik.

Issue was with spam from this organisation and persistent disruption of forcing "ISC" as post-nominal initials. Also they were adding ISC in the|title= param of infobox. See consensushere
"sacnilk.com" - spam, originally, but also a garbage reference. Circa 2020-2021.
