As a beginning, the above searches quickly resulted in multiple sources discussing and analyzing the character to meet WP:FICTION: A five minute search quickly found such as IBN Indian Express Bollywood Life The HIndu First Post Zee News NDTV (1) NDTV (2) NDTV (3) showing the character is spoken of quite a bit... and there are real-world considerations. The character is considered an inspiration by other actors,see Deccan Chronicle is to become a video game character,see News Vala is being emulated in other films and by other actorssee Times of IndiaDNAApunkaChoice, and even has a cult/fan following. I was prepared to opine a delete.... until my searches revealed how often this character is spoken of and analyzed directly and in detail in multiple reliable sources. If he were a real person, notability would not be in doubt. The topic needs expansion and use of available sources... IE: editorial attention, not deletion.
