- Keep - I've completely rewritten the article. While there are not a lot of sources that I can find, those I see suggest the story is a major one in Pashto folklore. By my count, it passes Wikipedia:Notability (books) criteria 1 (published print translations into French in 1982 and English in 1988) 3 (turned into a significant Pashto movie) and maybe WP:GNG, with in depth coverage by Heston (1986, 1994) and mention as representative of a genre in Pashto Culture by Hanaway (2011). The weaknesses of this argument include the issue that Heston was a coauthor in the English translation and is the main source of in depth coverage, the French translation was for a MA thesis, and the mention in Hanaway (2011) is passing.
