Comments

• as soon as she died in March 1972 — "soon after her death in March 1972"
• Her performance as a desperate wife in the 1962 romantic drama Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam is regarded as one of her career's bests — who regards it?
• the film itself failed at the box office — remove 'itself'
• All 3,000 copies of the first edition were sold out after six days. — exactly 3,000, or approximately 3,000?
• visible, but ... it was — add a non-breaking space ({{nbsp}}) before the ellipsis.
• It was received positively by many critics — this is cited to a primary source, where the author is same as the author of the book. We'll need secondary sources for such evaluative claims.
  • This still needs a secondary source: Critics showed enthusiastic response to it – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 05:29, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
    • Done. —Nicholas Michael Halim (talk) 05:47, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
• Change:

{| class="wikitable sortable plainrowheaders" |-

to

{| class="wikitable sortable plainrowheaders" |+ {{Sronly|Publication history of the book: Meena Kumari}}

• Rest good. I should note that there are various primary sources used, but mostly are used for direct quotations and content of the book, which should be fine.
• Images can take ALT text
