Dates are good, length is fine, citations are plentiful (if a little heavy on Bollywood Hungama), tone is reasonably neutral, and text appears free from close paraphrasing. Hook fact is short, punchy, and directly cited in the article.... and not quite true. The sources say "In a first-of-its-kind role in a Hindi film for an actress, she will play conjoined twins..." and "Alone is a horror film starring Bipasha Basu playing conjoined twins — a first of its kind for a Hindi film heroine..." This means that support the notion that she is the first actress to play such a role in a Hindi film but leaves open the probability that she's not the first actor to do so. Also, needs a QPQ. - Dravecky (talk) 07:29, 23 August 2015 (UTC)

@Dravecky: Thanks for the review. To my knowledge, she was the first actor in Bollywood to play such a role. I'll switch to "actress" (per your suggestion) since I'm unable to find sources. QPQ done —Vensatry _(ping) 08:36, 23 August 2015 (UTC)

I do love it when they're easy fixes. Good to go. - Dravecky (talk) 11:41, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
