... that Iqbal Qureshi composed the music for the film Cha Cha Cha (1964), the first Indian film to feature Western dance? Cha Cha Cha, a musical, set a new trend in Indian cinema as the first film to showcase the arrival of the emerging Western dance genre....The phenomenal music score was by a relatively obscure composer Iqbal Qureshi.

ALT1:... that ...? Source: "You are strongly encouraged to quote the source text supporting each hook" (and [link] the source, or cite it briefly without using citation templates)
The article is long enough and new enough with no copyright violations. The hook is directly cited. A QPQ has been completed. However, two of the references are self-published books from
Notion Press. Per
WP:SELFPUB, "Self-published expert sources may be considered reliable when produced by an established subject-matter expert, whose work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable, independent publications."

Thanks @
SL93: for reviewing, I checked out and wrote notes on the Notion Press
author, who appears to be a reputable historian of Indian film music. Will that be ok?

Hi, I came by to promote this. Footnote 10 does not have a page number, and I don't see anything about Cha Cha Cha or Western dance on p. 365.

Yoninah The second reference after the sentence that states " 1964 film Cha Cha Cha, which featured Helen in her first leading role and was the first Indian film to feature Western dance" in the book Hero Vol. 1 says, "Chandrashekhar ventured into film direction with two musicals Cha Cha Cha (1964)..." and "Cha Cha Cha, a musical, set a new trend in Indian Indian cinema as the first film to to showcase the arrival of the emerging Western dance genre". I can't fix the page number issue though.

@
SL93: Thanks. I re-formatted footnote 11 and deleted footnote 10, which doesn't verify anything. Restoring tick per your review.
