J.P. Dutta is a great technician: Sonu Sood
Mumbai, Nov 4 (IANS) Actor Sonu Sood, who is part of J.P. Dutta’s upcoming “Paltan” venture, says the filmmaker is a great technician.
Talking about working with the veteran filmmaker, Sonu said: “J.P. Dutta is a great technician and I feel fortunate to be part of ‘Paltan’. Whatever we have shot in the last 50 days, I would like to say it’s kind of a life-changing experience for me.”
“I hope when this film comes out in the next four-five months, every Indian will feel proud of it,” he added.
Sonu was present at the Fit India Conclave along with Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Friday here.
The actor along with the rest of the cast wrapped up a 50 days long schedule in Ladakh.
Talking about shooting in adverse conditions, he said: “I have come back to this event from the shoot of ‘Paltan’ from Ladakh. I was there for the last 50 days and after this, I will head back to Ladakh.”
“The kind of terrain that we are shooting in, I feel it’s a difficult film to shoot. We are shooting in places where there is less oxygen, temperature is also minus five or 10 degree Celsius, but I am enjoying it.”
Sonu is also trying his hand at producing films. He is backing a film based on the life of ace Indian shuttler P.V. Sindhu.
Talking about the status of that biopic, Sonu said: “The script of that film is almost ready. Some actors whom I approached have heard the script and they liked it. Hopefully, we will announce the name of the actress who is going to play the role of Sindhu in our film by this month itself. I am pretty excited to start the movie and early next year, we will start the shooting of the film.”
Sonu himself endorses fitness.
On fitness, he said: “I feel you have to love yourself. There shouldn’t be any kind excuses like ‘I don’t have time’ or ‘I am too busy’. In life, you should have only 22 hours for other things and you should dedicate those two hours of each day to fitness.”

International online casino Casino Days has published a report sharing their internal data on what types and brands of devices are used to play on the platform by users from the South Asian region.
Such aggregate data analyses allow the operator to optimise their website for the brands and models of devices people are actually using.
The insights gained through the research also help Casino Days tailor their services based on the better understanding of their clients and their needs.
Desktops and Tablets Lose the Battle vs Mobile
The primary data samples analysed by Casino Days reveal that mobile connections dominate the market in South Asia and are responsible for a whopping 96.6% of gaming sessions, while computers and tablets have negligible shares of 2.9% and 0.5% respectively.
The authors of the study point out that historically, playing online casino was exclusively done on computers, and attribute thе major shift to mobile that has unfolded over time to the wide spread of cheaper smartphones and mobile data plans in South Asia.
“Some of the reasons behind this massive difference in device type are affordability, technical advantages, as well as cheaper and more obtainable internet plans for mobiles than those for computers,” the researchers comment.
Xiaomi and Vivo Outperform Samsung, Apple Way Down in Rankings
Chinese brands Xiaomi and Vivo were used by 21.9% and 20.79% of Casino Days players from South Asia respectively, and together with the positioned in third place with a 18.1% share South Korean brand Samsung dominate the market among real money gamers in the region.
Cupertino, California-based Apple is way down in seventh with a user share of just 2.29%, overshadowed by Chinese brands Realme (11.43%), OPPO (11.23%), and OnePlus (4.07%).
Huawei is at the very bottom of the chart with a tiny share just below the single percent mark, trailing behind mobile devices by Motorola, Google, and Infinix.
The data on actual phone usage provided by Casino Days, even though limited to the gaming parts of the population of South Asia, paints a different picture from global statistics on smartphone shipments by vendors.
Apple and Samsung have been sharing the worldwide lead for over a decade, while current regional leader Xiaomi secured their third position globally just a couple of years ago.
Striking Android Dominance among South Asian Real Money Gaming Communities
The shifted market share patterns of the world’s top smartphone brands in South Asia observed by the Casino Days research paper reveal a striking dominance of Android devices at the expense of iOS-powered phones.
On the global level, Android enjoys a comfortable lead with a sizable 68.79% share which grows to nearly 79% when we look at the whole continent of Asia. The data on South Asian real money gaming communities suggests that Android’s dominance grows even higher and is north of the 90% mark.
Among the major factors behind these figures, the authors of the study point to the relative affordability of and greater availability of Android devices in the region, especially when manufactured locally in countries like India and Vietnam.
“And, with influencers and tech reviews putting emphasis on Android devices, the choice of mobile phone brand and OS becomes easy; Android has a much wider range of products and caters to the Asian online casino market in ways that Apple can’t due to technical limitations,” the researchers add.
The far better integration achieved by Google Pay compared to its counterpart Apple Pay has also played a crucial role in shaping the existing smartphone market trends.
