Priyanka Chopra and Shah Rukh Khan

The two superstars of Bollywood were said to be in a raging affair during their shooting of Don 2. The two were spotted at multiple places together and even were seen partying together at several IPL after matches. But the two had kept their affair totally under wraps unless it reached a point when Shahrukh and wife Gauri Khan were on the verge of a divorce. It was then when Gauri Khan had decided to put an end to their relationship and since then the two were never seen sharing the silver screen together.

Deepika Padukone and Vicky Kaushal

The URI actor sure made his name on his own and rode the heights of success after giving back to back blockbusters but there was a time with Vicky Kaushal wasn’t a big name, or so Deepika thought! It is believed that Sanjay Leela Bhansali had initially roped in Vicky for the role of Raja Ratan Singh Rawat in Padmavat which was later offered to Shahid Kapoor as it is alleged that Deepika was not quite happy working with him and had refused to do the film along with him.

Ranbir Kapoor and Sonakshi Sinha

This one is quite hard to digest but Ranbir had an absurd reason to not work with Sonakshi. When Ranbir was offered a film alongside Sonakshi, he had to turn it down as he thought Sonakshi looks much older than him and that his work look very young next to Sonakshi.

Kareena Kapoor Khan and Bipasha Basu

The two had already shared a screen in “Ajnabee” but later decided to not work together for any future projects as during their shoot, both the actresses had an ugly spat over the costume. The two got into a fight because of the clothes and since then had never spoken to each other.

Vikrant Massey

When Taapsee Pannu was seen in an interview recently sharing about her experience of working with Vikrant in “Haseen Dilruba”, the actress mentioned how the film was initially offered to many other B Town actresses who refused to do the film because of the hero of the film, Vikrant. Taapsee said how it actually was a good thing that others refused to do the film as she got an opportunity to work with a talented actor like Vikrant.

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.
