Yoddha (disambiguation) → Yoddha – Unnecessary disambiguation. — Zawl 10:08, 22 September 2017 (UTC)

• It's a kind of mess. Both Yoddha and Yodha redirect to Yodha (1992 film), and PlutoniumBackToTheFuture asserted in edit summary that The 1992 film named Yodha is a cult-classic that remains an integral part of pop culture after 25 years. 'Yodha' and 'Yoddha' should be directed to the page of..., which seems a reasonable WP:PRIMARYTOPIC claim, but then, that should be moved to Yod(d)ha. I'll leave a notice at WP:INDIA.

• Support move. The terms Yodha and Yoddha (as well as variants yōddhā, yōd'dhā, yoddhā, etc.) appear to be derivatives of the Hindi word for warrior (see wikt:योद्धा). All variants should redirect to a disambiguation page titled Yoddha, not to any particular film. The argument that the 1992 film's popularity makes it a primary topic is weak: the film Jaws is an integral part of American pop culture, yet there are many things called jaws. --Animalparty!

• Support as per the nom, really unnecessary. Lorstaking (talk) 02:51, 30 September 2017 (UTC)
