As @Dudhhr: flagged at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mothalum Kaadhalum, there has been some nonsense around this subject and multiple drafts. I closed the AfD as delete and today, Tirishan as well as P.Karthik.95 re-created it in several locations. Pinging Ravensfire who was helping with some of the whackamole. I have no idea if this is sock, meat or both but it's definitely not good faith editing. Star Mississippi 02:29, 2 May 2023 (UTC)

Unrelated from a technical standpoint. Absent a technical connection, I don't think there's enough evidence to block for sockpuppetry here. We have a lot of editors interested in articles related to Indian television series, and it is not entirely surprising to me that three separate individuals would be interested in creating an article about the same subject, particularly one that appears to have been recently released on a popular streaming service like Disney+ Hotstar.
