The chemistry of the lead pair of the film Kabir Singh seems to have transcended off screen. The pairing of Kiara Advani’s Preeti and Shahid Kapoor’s Kabir was extremely loved by the audience. Both the actors are known to be good friends in real life as well. The case in point is Shahid’s comment on the new poster of Kiara’s upcoming film, Govinda Naam Mera. Also starring Vicky Kaushal and Bhumi Pednekar in main roles, the film’s posters were released yesterday.

Kiara, who unveiled her character with the poster on Instagram, wrote, “Aur yeh hoon main (And this is me) followed by a crown emoji. In the poster, titled ‘Govinda ki naughty girlfriend,’ the actress looks stunning, clad in a yellow saree. “The exact tadka this story needs, I’m coming to spice things up. Join the chaos in the year’s biggest entertainer,” read the caption. The post received a lot of appreciation within minutes. However, it was Kiara’s former co-star who had the best reaction. “Yellow saari and Kiara Advani. Trust me it’s a killer combination,” wrote Shahid in comments. Kiara aka Preeti dropped several yellow heart emojis in reply. Dharma movies, the production house backing the film, also commented via its official Instagram account. Referring to Kiara’s character Dimple in her last released film, Shershaah, the comment read, “Safe to say you bring the ‘dimple’ to a lot of smiles.”

 

Last month while speaking to Pinkvilla, Kiara hinted at the possibility of another collaboration with Shahid. The two actors have also featured in the dance number, Yo Yo Honey Singh’s Urvashi 2.0, together. When asked if any team project is likely, Kiara said, “Conversations keep happening in general, but a really good script has to come. We have spoken about it. But hoping to, yea, we would love to collaborate on something super soon.”

 

Kiara is also waiting for her films – Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 and Jug Jugg Jeeyo to release next year.

Casino Days Reveal Internal Data on Most Popular Smartphones

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.
