About a month ago, news broke about Reliance's plans to merge Disney+ Hotstar with JioCinema after their Star-Viacom18 merger. While the merger is pending approvals from the Competition Commission of India, data from Google Play Store data shows Disney+ Hotstar had over 500 million downloads while JioCinema had over 100 million downloads.While the idea makes sense from a consumer's perspective who has to deal with too many subscriptions and too many choices, things don't quite add up from a strategic perspective for Reliance.Tune in.DAYBREAK UNWIND RECOMMENDATIONS for "favourite murder mystery."Snigdha: We Have Always Lived in The Castle by Shirley JacksonRahel: Nancy Drew by Carolyn Keene (The Phantom of Venice)Devansh: Blood on the Tracks by Shūzō OshimiVenkat: Agent Sai Srinivasa Athreya, 2019 (movie)Vaidehi: Glass Onion: A Knives Out MysteryRohith: Jane Jaan, 2023 (movie)Ashish: Sharp Objects by Gillian FlynnHari: Dial M for MurderDaybreak is now on WhatsApp at +918971108379.

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint, your weekday newscast that brings you five major stories from the world of business. It's Wednesday, September 25, 2024. My name is Nelson John. Let's get started.Anura Dissanayake became Sri Lanka's new president this week. Leading a socialist alliance, he won on the back of an anti-corruption campaign. We invited Shweta Singh, an associate professor in the department of international relations at the South Asian University, to explain the implication of his win. A massive focus on economic reforms is expected to be Dissanayake's first move as president. Shweta also explains the ramifications of the election result on relations between India and Sri Lanka, as well as China's growing influence in India's southern neighbour.Boutique investment banks are expanding their roles in the startup ecosystem by not only advising on fundraising but also investing directly. Sprout Capital, Merisis Advisors, and Dexter Ventures have established micro-venture capital funds to tap into diverse revenue streams and capitalize on the potential of various stages of startup growth. These banks are particularly interested in unique investment opportunities, such as buying secondary blocks from ESOP holders and early angel investors looking for liquidity, Priyamvada C reports for Mint. This approach provides a solution for founders who want to avoid wealth firms//what's that?// but need to create liquidity. For instance, IndigoEdge is setting up a $40-50 million fund to invest in late-stage startups, focusing on small, less attractive investment blocks that do not interest larger investors.India is ramping up its aviation game by planning 29 new airports in small towns over the next two decades, aiming to transform these areas into aviation hubs. The plan, spearheaded by the Airports Authority of India, targets states like Gujarat, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, and Jharkhand, with Gujarat getting the lion's share—nine airports. Mihir Mishra reports on the move, which is part of a broader initiative that includes a five-year strategy to upgrade 50 existing airports and develop additional ones in major cities to handle growing passenger numbers. These future airports, geared to accommodate large aircraft, are part of an effort to ensure long-term growth and connectivity, especially to international destinations. While the ambitious plan promises to enhance regional air travel and boost economies, experts advise that these expansions be driven by genuine passenger demand rather than political agendas.Foreign streaming giants are treading cautiously in India, a market notorious for its tough competition and price sensitivity. Companies like Warner Bros have delayed launching their own apps, opting instead to license content to local platforms like JioCinema. Similarly, Apple has partnered with Bharti Airtel to offer Apple TV+ without creating local originals. The hesitation stems from modest ad and subscription revenues, driven by the niche appeal of their content. Experts who spoke to Mint's media and entertainment correspondent, Lata Jha, suggest that to win in India, global streamers must tailor their strategies to align with the unique preferences of Indian viewers, such as offering affordable subscription plans and ad-supported models.It's been two years since Larsen and Toubro and Mindtree had their giant merger to create a new IT company. However, till today, the cultural differences between the two entities have not subsided: some 20-odd senior leaders have quit. Over the last two years, LTIMindtree has only been able to record 700 million dollars worth of revenue. Shelley Singh writes about how the falling profits are emblematic of the lack of successes in India's IT sector, outlined by LTIMindtree's merger.

First there was Infosys and Wipro on the IT services side. Then when startups become cool and hip, the default location to get it all started was also Bengaluru. Take the leaders across sectors, and you'll see they belong to Bengaluru — Flipkart, InMobi, Swiggy, PhonePe, Myntra, Ola, Amazon, Unacademy, Byju's…and much more. But of late, it looks like something has changed. There's now a sentiment that Bengaluru is for people who “want to” build startups, but Delhi is for people who build businesses. Delhi companies are the ones who seem to be gutsier, more resilient, and stronger. The list of tech companies that have gone public — Zomato, Paytm, Mamaearth, Infoedge, Delhivery, have one thing in common i.e Delhi. Why is this distance so wide? Do cities really influence businesses that much?Our guests for this episode have stories that might make you agree. Our first guest is Prashant Singh, who's the Head of Product at JAR, in Bengaluru. He's spent 20 years in Delhi, where he set up his own startup and sold it to Paytm. He's now in Bengaluru, and he's not convinced that a city can affect a company's future…but he remembers the early building days of Delhi – a city with a get-thing-done attitude and massive “ops chops.”Our second guest is Arnav Gupta, the Director of Engineering at JioCinema. He has also founded and sold his own edtech startup, as well as led the engineering and product for the Zomato app. Arnav worked in Delhi before VCs pulled him to Bengaluru – and now that he's spent a few years here, he knows what sort of companies only Bengaluru can give birth to, and why. Joined by hosts Rohin Dharmakumar and Praveen Gopal Krishnan, our guests discuss the unique cultural context each city adds to a business, why it's causing a rivalry, and what this means for the Indian startups ecosystem, going forward.If you like the episode rate us on your favorite streaming platform.

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint, your weekday newscast that brings you five major stories from the world of business. It's Wednesday, September 4, 2024. My name is Nelson John. Let's get started.Indian equity markets were little changed on Tuesday, with benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty moving less than 0.01 percent during the day.Seventeen-year-old Sheetal Devi, an armless Indian Paralympian archer, has captured the world's attention by scoring a perfect 10 earning a bronze medal at the Paris Paralympics 2024, using her foot, jaw, and shoulder with remarkable precision. Her achievement underscores a significant advancement in tech for Paralympians. Leslie D'Monte writes that Devi's success is part of a broader narrative of technological evolution in Paralympic sports. From rudimentary equipment to today's customised, high-tech aids like 3D-printed prosthetics, Paralympics have come a long way. This ensures fair competition, and showcases incredible human spirit and determination. India is currently at 15 medals in these Games — watch out for a better tally in the days to come.At R-I-L's annual general meeting last week, Mukesh Ambani formally announced the merger of JioCinema and Disney+ Hotstar. This deal has stirred unease among producers and content creators, who fear it could lead to a market monopoly. With one fewer player in the market, their bargaining power is diminished, and the commissioning of new shows and films may decline. Lata Jha reports that Disney+ Hotstar had already been slowing down on commissioning new content. Despite these concerns, some media experts see potential benefits in the merger.It turns out you can have your brownie and eat it too. The sale of Theobroma Foods is nearing its final stages, reports Ranjani Raghavan, drawing strong interest from private equity firms like Bain Capital, Carlyle Group, and Chrys Capital. The sale, initiated by its major private equity partner ICICI Venture, involves offloading a 42% stake. The patisserie brand is valued at ₹2,800 crore, with an asking price slightly higher by a few hundred crores.IT companies are making it clear they want employees back in the office. LTI Mindtree has revised its leave policy to deduct a quarter-day of leave for each day an employee misses office, reports Jas Bardia. This policy categorizes employees into three groups based on their work requirements: those required in the office full-time, those working at client locations as needed, and those on a hybrid model. Hybrid employees must come to the office at least two days per week, with total leave deductions capped at 1.5 days per month. Jas notes that employees are generally receptive to the change, viewing it as the formalization of previously understood expectations.Currently, the minimum limit for starting an SIP is ₹500. Sebi chief Madhavi Puri Buch has proposed reducing this to ₹250—a 'micro SIP,' if you will. The move aims to democratize wealth creation and cater to small investors, including rural residents and daily wage earners, writes Abhinaba Saha. However, mutual fund houses see micro SIPs more as charitable efforts, citing operational challenges and low profitability in managing numerous small transactions.

"Gaanth," an 8-episode crime thriller on JioCinema, feels outdated and derivative. Inspired by the 2018 Burari Deaths, it's the third show on this case. Despite good visuals and solid casting, the show is bogged down by incoherent writing and unoriginal characters. The plot drags, making it frustrating and unfocused, ultimately disrespecting the real-life tragedy it portrays. #Gaanth #JioCinema Follow Us Onhttp://instagram.com/filmcompanionhttps://www.twitter.com/filmcompanion https://www.facebook.com/filmcompanionFind us on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@FilmCompanionhttps://www.youtube.com/@FilmCompanionSouthhttps://www.youtube.com/@FilmCompanionLocalhttps://www.youtube.com/@ReviewsandMore.https://www.youtube.com/@FilmCompanionShorts

At long last, Jet Airways revival in sightTweaked stock options, coming soon to a job contract near youPetrol pumps cap inventory amid hopes of fuel price cutStartups, SMEs increasingly covet so-called fractional CXOsNetflix needs another midstream change in India. Here's why Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint, your weekday newscast that brings you five major stories from the world of business. It's Wednesday, March 13, 2024. My name is Nelson John. Let's get started:Indian benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty trimmed some of their gains, yet managed to end Tuesday in the green. Largely the indices remained flat with NSE's Nifty 50 gaining a miniscule 0.01 per cent. BSE's 30-company index Sensex too rose only 0.22 per cent. HDFC Bank, TCS, Maruti Suzuki India, Infosys, and Reliance Industries emerged as the top gainers on Tuesday.Finally, there's been some progress in the possible revival of Jet Airways. The grounded airline got a second wind on Tuesday, after a decision by the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal. N-C-L-A-T has asked the bankrupt airline's lender's to handover the carrier to the Jalan-Karlock Consortium within 90 days. The National Company Law Tribunal — a lower body than the N-C-L-A-T, had approved the consortium's resolution plan for Jet Airways back in June 2021. It had even allowed the handover in January last year. However, Jet's lenders challenged this decision in the higher tribunal over alleging the consortium to be non-compliant with the resolution plan. Mint's legal correspondent Krishna Yadav reports on the development, crucial for not just Jet but also the Indian aviation industry. In a bid to retain top talent amid rising attrition, companies are juggling with different kinds of stock options for employees. India Inc is experimenting with hybrid forms of stock options, as opposed to the regular ones. Some of them include stricter forms of performance based stock options, analysts told Mint's HR and workplace correspondent Devina Sengupta. These restricted stock units or RSUs, are shares given to an employee as a reward upon fulfilling a predetermined period of service. On the other hand, performance stocks are granted only when an employee achieves particular objectives, remains with the company for a designated duration, and the company itself reaches its goals within its industry. For businesses, these stock options are considered "less dilutive." According to consultancy firm EY, the number of companies choosing alternative stock incentives for employees has increased by 25 to 30 per cent in the last few years.General elections are only a few weeks away. Freebies and price cuts usually become the main weapons against anti-incumbency for governments around this time. One such important pre-election move is cutting down the price of fuel. Anticipating a price cut, fuel stations are running low on inventory. Petrol and diesel pumps are keeping enough stock for only three days, as opposed to their regular inventory of five days. This is to save on any losses that may occur in case a price cut is announced. In case of a price cut, the new rates take effect immediately — leaving fuel retailers with losses on the stock they bought for a higher price. Mint's energy correspondent Rituraj Baruah reports on the cautious move by fuel retailers. He explains how a 5-rupee deduction in the price of petrol and diesel could mean losses of up to 1.5 lakh rupees for retailers in rural areas. The number only goes up for petrol stations in tier-3 and tier-2 cities. Petrol pumps in metro cities usually see losses of up to 25 lakh rupees on a 5-rupee price cut. Ever thought of a life where you can be a banker by the day, and manage finances for a startup as its CFO by the night? No, I am not talking about moonlighting for another company. Fractional C-suites employees are becoming more and more common across startups and small and medium enterprises in India. What's that you ask? These are experienced executives with deep competencies in domains like finance, marketing, and strategy who work with multiple companies at a time on a part-time basis. With the kind of flexibility a fractional CXO gig is able to offer, more senior executives are getting attracted to it. There is a demand factor to it also. Companies are increasingly looking for fractional CXOs to access good talent at affordable costs. Mint's startup correspondent Samiksha Goel writes about this unique trend shaping boardrooms across startups. She also spoke to C-suite executives following the trend and working as a fractional CXO. Globally, there's been about a 25 per cent increase in the hiring of fractional CXOs, while India saw a 10-12 per cent uptick among startups in sectors such as legal, finance, e-commerce, and technology, according to HR consulting firm Randstad. Remember Nawazuddin Siddiqui's iconic dialogues in Sacred Games? The Netflix original, parts of which were set in the Bombay of the 80s, became a pop culture phenomenon across languages in India. But pause for a moment and think. Has there been any other Netflix show as iconic as Sacred Games that comes to mind? The answer is highly likely to be no. The streaming pioneer, who entered India in 2016 has largely been facing flak for its strategy (or lack thereof) for the Indian market. Until recently, the streaming platform was struggling with adding and retaining subscribers. That is when it changed its password sharing policy, allowing only four devices to be linked to an account. The change, which is part of a multi-pronged strategy worked wonders for the company. Its paid subscribers have doubled over the past two years. Another change that helped, was slashing subscription prices. The mobile-only plan which would cost a user 199 rupees is now just 149, whereas for 199 a month, a user can watch Netflix on any device. Despite a big turnaround, the company lags behind its rivals which include Amazon Prime, Hotstar and JioCinema. The question remains, what's not working for Netflix, and what other changes does the company need? Mint's media and entertainment correspondent Lata Jha takes a deep dive into Netflix India's current scenario and answers some of these questions. For once, the company's acquisition strategy, where it is focusing on acquiring movies rather than producing originals, has been dubbed lazy by many. With the streaming market reaching the point of saturation in India, Netflix needs to up its game.We'd love to hear your feedback on this podcast.

Who will win Barbenheimer clash at Oscars? Here's what history shows.India's chip ambitions are about to get larger Disney merger in sight, Viacom18 rejigs top rolesSpotify bets on independent music to bolster presence in IndiaNexCAR 19 cancer therapy: Conceived at IIT Bombay, delivered in Tata MemorialWelcome to Top of the Morning by Mint, your weekday newscast that brings you five major stories from the world of business. It's Monday, March 11, 2024. My name is Nelson John. Let's get started:The big day for cinephiles is finally here. As you are listening to this podcast, The 96th Academy Awards are being announced at the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles. The apex awards for the global movie industry have for long raised eyebrows with their nomination choices. Often the Academy's picks go against the popular box office trends of the year. Take 2023's highest grossing film Barbie for example: it received 9 nominations, but missed out on some key categories. The Greta Gerwig directorial venture was snubbed in major categories including direction and leading actress. Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer, on the other hand, which clashed with Barbie in an epic showdown at the box office, received 13 nominations. Mint's Shuja Asrar breaks down the data on the Academy's past picks and how they performed in the theatres. For the Oscars, popular doesn't always equate to being the best. This year doesn't seem like it'll be any different.It's the era of semiconductors. It is difficult to imagine the world without these tiny silicon chips, and India is bullish on its prospects. In an interview with Mint's senior assistant editor Gulveen Aulakh, union IT minister Ashwini Vaishnaw spoke about the government's plan to boost chip sector incentives. Currently, these incentives add up to about 76,000 crore rupees. Thanks to a n increase in incentives, we can expect a boom in the number of chip fabs and testing units across the country. This interview comes as just last week the union government approved three chip sector projects with expected investments of 1.26 trillion rupees, with two of them being won by Tata. The minister expects dozens of such units to be up and running in the next five years. As the mega-merger between media giants Reliance and Disney is inching closer, preparations are underway on both sides. In one such move, Reliance-owned Viacom18 is planning to rejig its organisational structure to streamline the business. Senior executives at the company spoke to Mint's senior editor Gaurav Laghate about the upcoming change. As per the planned restructuring Kiran Mani, who was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer of JioCinema in November last year, has now been tasked with overseeing both the digital and sports divisions. Meanwhile, the entire content division will be managed by Kevin Vaz, who assumed the role of CEO for Broadcast in July of the last year. Read Gaurav's insightful piece to find out how Reliance is reshuffling its ranks to hit the ground running.There is a good chance that you're listening to this podcast on Spotify, which is also at the centre of this story. Don't worry, this isn't another spotify ad! In a move to bolster its presence in India, the audio streaming platform is ready to bet big on independent artists. The indie music scene in India is growing at a faster pace than film music consumption, which accounts for 70 to 90 per cent of music streaming on the platform in India. In an interview with Mint's entertainment correspondent Lata Jha, Spotify India's managing director Amarjit Singh Batra said that the platform would like to see an equal balance of film and indie music. The Swedish-audio streaming platform has also invested in ‘Spotify for Artists' an initiative which involves working with independent artists by sharing streaming data and consumption habits with them. The significance of this shift in strategy towards independent music is evidenced in the fact that the most streamed song from 2023 was a song by King, who is an independent artist. Batra highlighted that consumption patterns differ significantly among various languages. For instance, in Punjabi music, non-film tracks dominate, making up 90 per cent of the total consumption. In contrast, in languages such as Hindi, Tamil, or Telugu, where film music plays a more prominent role, the share of movie tracks in total music consumption ranges from 70 to 80 per cent. This next story is about a potentially groundbreaking therapy for cancer patients. It starts with a 60-year-old woman named Sheeba. Three years after discovering a growth on her tonsils, Sheeba was diagnosed with lymphoma, a cancer that attacks your lymph nodes. Traditional treatments, including naturopathy and chemotherapy, had failed her. But rather than giving in, Sheeba and her husband sought out CAR T-cell therapy, a cutting-edge procedure that modifies a patient's immune cells to combat cancer. This therapy, developed on a modest budget by a dedicated team at IIT Bombay, represents a beacon of hope, offering significant advancements in cancer treatment in India. Remarkably, Sheeba's cancer was arrested just 28 days following her treatment, showcasing the potential of this innovative approach. Despite the high cost and no insurance coverage, CAR T-cell therapy stands out as a crucial alternative for patients facing a dire prognoses. But it isn't the silver bullet for cancer yet. Mint's Devina Sengupta takes a deep dive into the journey of this emerging weapon against cancer cells. Devina also examines why the new therapy, which can cost the patient up to 50 lakh rupees, still has a long way to go. We'd love to hear your feedback on this podcast.

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint, your weekday newscast that brings you five major stories from the world of business. It's Thursday, February 29, 2024. Happy Leap day to all our listeners. My name is Nelson John. Let's get started:Bears went loose on the D-street on Wednesday with benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty seeing a crash. Dragged down by the Midcap and Smallcap indices, both Sensex and Nifty were down more than one per cent at close, falling below the psychological levels of 73 thousand and 22 thousand respectively.As the February derivatives approached their expiry, the border markets corrected themselves on Wednesday amid stretched valuations. small and midcap companies bore the brunt of the crash. This is after Sebi asked mutual funds investing in these companies to disclose more information about the risks involved. A senior mutual fund executive confirmed to Mint's market correspondent Ram Sahgal, that the fund had shared information about handling a stress situation with Sebi. The market regulator had been in discussions with mutual funds about excessive inflow of cash into smaller companies. Coinciding with this, Kotak Mutual fund has capped the lump sum inflows to its small cap fund at 2 lakh rupees per PAN per month and SIP inflows to 25,000 rupees per PAN per month.https://blankpaper.htdigital.in/dash/story/11709128654894“If you want to be a millionaire, start with a billion dollars and launch a new airline,” if this quote by Virgin Atlantic airline's founder Richard Branson does not tell you enough about the risks of airline business, today's Mint Primer, definitely will. For an airline business to be revived, a lot of factors need to align, it is no easy feat. Profitable carriers rely on a mix of factors: from favourable fuel prices and suitable aircraft, to reliable maintenance contracts, extensive networks, prime airport slots, and a skilled workforce. In India especially, the action plan to get the planes back on the tarmac, requires a hawk-eye over costs and proactive management.

The company has set aside a corpus of 100 million dollars for acquisitions and other inorganic deals, of which 60 million is from its last fund raise.

Physicswallah's is expected to close this fiscal with a revenue of 2000 crore rupees, a growth of 150 percent over last year.. The edtech is now in need of new growth areas.

Cyclone Biparjoy has weakened. But not before wreaking havoc in Gujarat and parts of Rajasthan. While there was no loss of life reported, normal life has been hit hard. Biparjoy has dealt a big blow to the coastal economy. With the frequency and intensity of such cyclones increasing, what are the larger economic implications? But the good part is that Biparjoy has given a short relief from scorching heat in parts of northern India. Moving on, JioCinema, it seems, is slowly turning up the heat on its rivals – like Netflix and Amazon Prime. And the modus operandi is the same old tried and tested formula: start with freebies. Jio Cinema streamed the 2023 IPL free of charge. Soon it had over 10 million subscribers. So what does Jio Cinema's rise mean for the other players? Let us turn our gaze to financial markets now. With the Sensex and Nifty trading near their respective 52-week highs, are the markets set for a correction? And, what should be your strategy in this backdrop? Are there any sectors and stocks that are still worthy of investment at the current levels?

India's OTT businesses are pushing back against a government mandate to curtail the glorification of cigarette and tobacco use online. The Internet and Mobile Association of India has flagged “fundamental concerns” and “practical difficulties” in complying with the new rules that the government issued last month, Economic Times reports. Meanwhile, Disney+ Hotstar is looking to win some users back, by offering cricket streaming free to mobile users, TechCrunch reports. Also in this brief, QNu Labs wins an Indian Navy contract; Capillary makes another buy; and Tiki shuts down. Notes: India's OTT businesses are pushing back against a government mandate to curtail the glorification of cigarette use online. The Internet and Mobile Association of India (IAMAI) has flagged “fundamental concerns” and “practical difficulties” in complying with the new rules that the government issued last month to include anti-tobacco warnings on video streaming platforms, Economic Times reports. On May 31, the health ministry notified amendments in the Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products Act, 2004, which mandate over-the-top (OTT) video streaming platforms to display anti-tobacco warnings and disclaimers on the lines of such warnings displayed in movies in theatres. Disney+ Hotstar has decided to offer free streaming of cricket tournaments to mobile users in India, following the success of Reliance's JioCinema, which has attracted millions of viewers, TechCrunch reports. The move comes after JioCinema surpassed Hotstar's record for concurrent views during the Indian Premier League (IPL) cricket tournament. WhatsApp last week announced the launch of WhatsApp Channels, a feature that allows users to follow people and organizations within the app. Initially rolling out in Singapore and Colombia, Channels will offer a private way to communicate, with phone numbers and personal information of both admins and followers kept confidential, CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in a blog post. The one-way broadcast tool enables admins to share text, photos, videos, stickers, and polls with their followers. Channel updates will only be stored for 30 days, and admins can even choose to block screenshots and forwards. While Channels are not end-to-end encrypted by default, WhatsApp is considering encrypted channels for specific audiences in the future. The company also plans to support admins in building businesses around their channels through payment services and promotional opportunities in the directory. Tiki, a short-form video app, is shutting down its operations in India on June 27, joining a roster of ventures that failed to fill the void left by the ban on TikTok in India, TechCrunch reports. Despite having around 35 million monthly active users in India, Tiki announced its closure in a social media post. QNu Labs, backed by investors including early-stage deep-tech VC firm Speciale Invest, has won a contract with the Indian Navy to deploy its Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) based systems. The Indian Navy aims to enhance its cybersecurity capabilities by using large-scale quantum-based encryption systems, making it the first agency in the country to do so. Capillary Technologies, a customer loyalty and engagement solutions provider, has acquired Tenerity's Digital Connect Assets, expanding its presence in the US and Europe. The acquisition adds a rewards ecosystem to Capillary's portfolio and will be rebranded as Rewards+.
Bloody Daddy, the new action thriller film directed by Ali Abbas Zafar and starring Shahid Kapoor, marks a new low for them both. It's streaming for free on JioCinema, but audiences should demand money for surviving it. We discuss the film's laughable John Wick and Jason Bourne ambitions, given Zafar and Kapoor's sheer disinterest in doing the actual hard work to achieve good results. The action is choppily edited, the storytelling is confusing, and the background score is an assault on the senses. For a wall-to-wall action movie, you never actually get the sense that the main character is the one doing the fighting, but at least Ronit Roy and Sanjay Kapoor understood the assignment. — Hosted by Akhil Arora and Rohan Naahar, The Long Take is fully bootstrapped.

JioCinema set a new global record for concurrent views during a live-streamed event, yesterday attracting more than 33 million simultaneous viewers for the Indian Premier League cricket tournament finale, surpassing the previous record held by Disney's Hotstar, TechCrunch reports. Apple is expected to introduce new Mac models at its upcoming Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), according to Bloomberg. Also in this brief, a US fund has cut the value of Indian ed-tech unicorn Eruditus Notes JioCinema set a new global record for concurrent views during a live-streamed event, yesterday, attracting more than 33 million simultaneous viewers for the Indian Premier League cricket tournament finale, surpassing the previous record held by Disney's Hotstar, TechCrunch reports. Hotstar's record of 25.3 million concurrent viewers had remained unchallenged for years. Viacom18, which secured the digital rights for IPL in a $3 billion bidding war against Disney, offered free streaming of the tournament through its JioCinema app. The move is seen as a potential game-changer in the South Asian streaming landscape. Apple is expected to introduce new Mac models at its upcoming Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. Although WWDC is primarily focused on software, it has historically seen the launch of new Macs and related technologies. Gurman suggests that Apple will facilitate the purchase of these new models by expanding its trade-in program to include the Mac Studio, 13-inch M2 MacBook Air, and 13-inch M2 MacBook Pro. Trade-ins for these current-gen versions are anticipated to begin on June 5, the same day as the start of WWDC. A Japanese public-private partnership is set to embark on an ambitious project aimed at beaming solar energy from space to ground-based receiving stations as early as 2025, engadget reports. The initiative, led by JAXA, Japan's equivalent of NASA, builds upon previous successes in wireless power transmission. The goal is to create a satellite array capable of generating 1 gigawatt of power, equivalent to the output of a nuclear reactor. However, this ambitious endeavour is estimated to cost $7 billion with existing technologies. Toyota Motor Corp has become the first automaker to enter a racing car powered by liquid hydrogen into an official race, Japan Today reports. The move is part of Toyota's efforts to promote hydrogen as a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels. Hydrogen-powered vehicles do not emit carbon dioxide when burned. Toyota believes that offering a variety of green vehicles, including hybrids and hydrogen-powered cars like their mass-produced Mirai fuel cell vehicle, is more effective in reducing carbon footprints than solely focusing on electric vehicles. The race at Fuji Speedway in Japan aims to test the functionality and address challenges of using liquid hydrogen as a fuel source. The Private Shares Fund, a US-based asset management firm, has lowered the fair value of edtech unicorn Eruditus by 9% in the first quarter of 2023, Moneycontrol reports. The fund, which holds a 0.2% stake in Eruditus, now values the company at $2.9 billion, down from its previous valuation of $3.2 billion.

Shankar Nag's socio-political Kannada feature film Accident, released in 1985, bagged the National Film Award and several Karnataka state film awards for Best Picture. Acting alongside him was his real-life brother Ananth Nag and his wife Arundathi Nag. The film was critically acclaimed for its engaging storyline about the tussle between corrupt politicians and the Indian judiciary in the 80s. Colloquially dubbed as Auto Raja by fans, Shankar Nag has delivered some of the most iconic Kannada movies of all time. The film, also directed by Nag, sees him play a journalist. The film follows a corrupt politician who would go to any lengths to protect his son and his own reputation. His son Deepak runs over a few pedestrians while in an inebriated state. Only one man survives. The rest of the film plays out like a cat-and-mouse chase, with police and media in tow. Though there are no songs in the movie, music maestro Illayaraja was hired to score the background for a few scenes in the film.The sounds of retro car screeches, typewriting, camera shutters, the silence during accident scenes, the pink television noise all add up to lend the film its discomfiting environment. Although shot 35 years ago, this deep-rooted film is definitely worth revisiting for its relevance and depiction.If you haven't watched this classic then do so on Jiocinema, Youtube and MX player.Well, that was the Lost and Found Kannada language film Accident for today on OTTplay.I shall be back again with another critically acclaimed film but lesser-known. Until then it's your host Nikhil signing out.
