My daughter brings out the best in me: Rannvijay

New Delhi, Feb 12 (IANS) Be it his professional calls or the way he leads his personal life — fatherhood has made Rannvijay Singha more responsible. The actor says his daughter Kainaat brings out the best in him, and he actually gets surprised with it all.

Rannvijay and his wife Prianka Vohra welcomed their daughter Kainaat in January last year.

“It is almost like a new life, but one that you’re living for someone else. I think fatherhood teaches you a lot of things which you never thought you will be able to experience.

“My daughter brings out the best in me and sometimes it actually surprises me to see this new version of myself,” Rannvijay told IANS over an email.

“My daughter Kainaat has made me more responsible in a way. Every day, after finishing my work, I actually look forward to going home and spending time with her. I try taking up projects that will make her proud of me and also give me more time with her,” he added.

After gaining popularity with his stint in “MTV Roadies”, Rannvijay has worked on the small as well as big screen. He has featured in films like “Mod”, “Sharafat Gayi Tel Lene”, “London Dreams” and “Action Replayy”.

On the small screen, he is popular for shows like “MTV Roadies”, “Splitsvilla” and “Troll Police”.

How does he balance his personal and professional life?

“There are times when I am out for shoots for days but then it is a part of my job that I love. I am very fortunate that my family understands this and always supports me.

“Having said that, at times it does take a toll when I haven’t seen my family for days, especially my daughter,” said the actor, who has been chosen as the face of the seven km Power Walk — a new category by Max Bupa Health Insurance.

Rannvijay, a fitness enthusiast, says his “fitness goal each year is to go one level up”.

“The only tip I would like to give everyone is to have a long-term routine. Fitness doesn’t mean spurts of heavy weight work outs and then exile for some time.

“Whatever one’s routine, it needs to be practical and sustainable. There should be no complacency. And even on cheat days, even if one doesn’t feel like going to gym, they can just walk,” the actor said.

Casino Days Reveal Internal Data on Most Popular Smartphones

CasinoDays India

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.
