Initial comments

• "He has adapted William Shakespeare's tragedies in three of his directorial ventures: Maqbool (2003) from Macbeth Omkara (2006) from Othello and Haider (2014) from Hamlet;" - missing commas in between the titles
• "He has produced films like Ishqiya (2010), its sequel and Talvar (2015)" - could be He has produced films like Ishqiya (2010), its sequel Dedh Ishqiya (2014) and Talvar (2015)
• "He is also an avid Tennis player" - tennis shouldn't be capitalised
• "He is known for his collaborations with Gulzar, who had Bhardwaj as his music composer in all his directorial ventures since Maachis; and Gulzar provided lyrics to all of Bhardwaj's films" - unsourced
• "The next year, Bhardwaj helmed the director's cap for Maqbool" - sounds informal, it could just be something like The next year, Bhardwaj accepted the directing role for Maqbool
• "It, however opened to positive box-office response in North America and United Kingdom" - no need for the comma after "it". Also there should be a the before United Kingdom
• "after finding out that he is HIV+" - HIV positive? I could be wrong
• I think that two small paragraphs in the Producer section could be merged in order to create a bigger paragraph and improve prose flow

@Yashthepunisher: I'm really sorry for the delay in reviewing this. I usually review articles on the same day but lately I've been so busy. Anyway, nice work on this article! Once all of the above are clarified then this should be good to go. JAGUAR  13:21, 12 November 2015 (UTC)

@Jaguar: I have resolved all issues raised by you. I have also provided the source for the fourth issue, and have trimmed the sentence. As it was too long and quite redundant. You don't need to apologise, we all have other things to do; both here and in real life. Thanks for your helpful review anyway. :) Yashthepunisher (talk) 13:38, 12 November 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for addressing them so quickly! This is good to go now. Nice work JAGUAR  13:40, 12 November 2015 (UTC)

Birthday and Birth Year

Some sources say that he was born on 4th August and other sources say he was born on the 6th. Also some sources say he was born in 1965 while other sources say he was born in 1960.Neel.arunabh (talk) 19:45, 6 August 2018 (UTC).

[1] too says 6th August 1960.Neel.arunabh (talk) 20:06, 7 August 2018 (UTC)

I have added several reliable source for his 4th August DOB. On the other hand, you have poor quality ref's like "birthcharts.astro-seek.com" to back your claim. Stop edit warring. Yashthepunisher (talk) 05:13, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

"allmusic.com" and 2 other sources tell his 6th august 1960 DOB.Neel.arunabh (talk) 18:56, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

Again, the sources your are adding do not meet WP:RS or WP:DOB as they are online databases that do not have the editorial oversight required to be included in BLPs. Please stop throwing whatever random websites you find on the internet into the article and ensure you are using the high-quality sources required by WP:DOB. If you are not able to determine what constitutes a reliable source you need to stop editing BLPs altogether until you have a better grasp of the relevant policies.--Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 19:12, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

One month after this dispute, I'm glad that the birth year in the online databases that I had added has changed to 1965. But I have learnt from the dispute I had. Neel.arunabh (talk) 22:26, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
