Consumers consume more than five hours of online entertainment on their TVs

The main benefits of streaming on TV include enhanced sound and visual quality, a wide selection of material from OTT providers, and the ease of viewing on a large screen.Customers are increasingly choosing to stream their favorite TV episodes and movies on television, according to a study. In contrast to other available options like smartphones, tablets, and laptops, 78% of respondents preferred streaming online content on their TVs through streaming sticks, smart TVs, and set-top boxes, according to a NielsenIQ study on TV streaming trends commissioned by Amazon in December 2023.Compared to fewer than three hours during the week, nearly 66% of respondents streamed for five hours a day on the weekends. Furthermore, 74% of them watched the same with family, particularly their spouse and kids, and 97% of them preferred to stream internet entertainment on TV during dinnertime. The study found that respondents most frequently viewed items in the comedy genre. In order of preference, sports, thrillers, romances, horror, foreign TV series, and news came in close succession.TV streaming is preferred since it's more comfortable and offers a better watching experience. People are streaming on TV due to improved video and audio quality, ease of access to a wide range of material from OTT providers and internet sources, and availability of an active broadband connection at home. This inclination is also influenced by ergonomic benefits. Watching TV may also help you keep a good posture, which can reduce the aches and pains that come with occasionally holding your phone while watching video.For Indian audiences, speed is important. Lag-free streaming (39%) and a large selection of OTT Apps (24%) were the most requested characteristics by respondents when it came to TV streaming. The ability to stream internet material and live TV shows from DTH channels on a single screen, as well as the availability of voice assistants for content search and smart home appliance control, were additional preferences.Since its inception, online video streaming has advanced significantly, as have consumer streaming habits. Our inclination to watch media on the television, the largest screen in our homes, hasn't changed. Your favorite TV series, films, sports, and more are easily accessible on Fire TV, according to Parag Gupta, Director and Country Manager, Amazon Devices India. With Alexa's universal voice search, finding content on your old, non-smart TV is made easier. Users can also get more out of their current smart TV by using the Fire TV stick, which offers a faster streaming experience and access to over 12,000 apps from a variety of genres.

Karan Johar, playing the inquisitive host as always, touched upon Orry's rather confounding popularity and asked Orry if he remembers the first time he felt famous. To this, Orry had a rather unexpected answer. He said that there is only one person to be blamed for his popularity and that is filmmaker Boney Kapoor. FYI: Orry is also BFFs with Boney Kapoor's daughters and Bollywood stars Janhvi Kapoor and Khushi Kapoor. Boney Kapoor is the person to blame, if you must. Put him in the dock. Since it was his fault that I received attention for the first time. The media was clicking, clicking, clicking as I entered the gate while I was at his daughter's birthday celebration. Orry disclosed, "And Boney uncle, being the gentleman that he is, had come down to receive me." Orry went on to say, "I was so shy, I was shaking," admitting that he was terrified of the photographers during their initial encounter. "Boney uncle, they were calling my name," I informed him. He then asked, "Did you pose?" I replied that I didn't.Grabbing my wrist and throwing me in front of the press, he exclaimed, "This is Orry, this is a photo, this is mera bachcha hai." Take a photo of him. He is my offspring]. The match was always there, and so was the gunpowder, and Boney just lit it. And now I'm on Koffee, so I should write him a cheque,” as Karan Johar burst out laughing. While on the show, Orry also revealed a rather unique strategy that he and his team – who he refers to as his minions – have planned for his “brand”.I tell that story when you see me on screen and in paparazzi pages, and I read all day long, from dawn to dusk. I'm reading every review of my photos in the comments section. And everyone is saying, "Just wait, his 15 minutes are about to end, he's going to disappear." It's the fame that's getting to him. Yes, my attitude is getting out of control and yes, the fame is getting to me. I am planning my own demise even though I believe I am superior to everyone else. Now is the moment when everything that rises must also fall. The fastest star to burn out is the brightest one, he said.

Lift: Gugu Mbatha-Raw and Kevin Harts antics fall flat

The most recent addition to Netflix's collection of heist thrillers has characters that are cardboard cutouts and predictable turns.The idea behind Lift, the newest heist thriller on Netflix, is an enormous shipment of gold is supposed to be taken in midair. It sounds like an intriguing plot point. The thriller appears polished, having been filmed in some of the most picturesque places on earth, such as Venice, Switzerland, and Ireland. The film, which aims to be a suspenseful thriller, is propelled by a varied cast. However, the film, directed by F. Gary Gray, who has previously helmed films such as The Italian Job (2003) and The Fate of the Furious (2017), lacks substance and is not very compelling.Lift, a novel by Daniel Kunka, chronicles the exploits of Kevin Hart's character, professional thief Cyrus Whitaker, and his skilled gang as they attempt the ultimate heist: taking $500 million in gold from a vault on an aircraft that is hovering 40000 feet over the Alps. A group of hackers in the thriller are capable of making even the most difficult heists seem easy. That is established in a long opening scene where the group whisks away a mysterious artist and sets up a furious chase along Venice's canals. Shortly later, Whitaker is being pursued by Interpol agent Abby Gladwell (Gugu Mbatha-Raw), who approaches him with the idea of stealing the gold at the request of her senior official.The first aim is a Venice art auction. The gang at the heart of Netflix's mistrustful heist drama Lift, led by their aspirationally stoic chief, Cyrus (Kevin Hart), get ready to steal priceless works from the hands of the one percent. This squad considers themselves as a bunch of cultural Robin Hoods, consisting of proficient techies and masters of disguise. They screw the rich and support the artists while pilfering from the wealthy to fill their own coffers.Directed by F. Gary Gray (Straight Outta Compton), the movie opens with Cyrus waltzing toward an imposingly beautiful edifice that will host the auction. A crimson carpet delineates the route to the main entrance, as Venetians in masks move about on either side of the ropes. This opening scene makes Venice, which Gray more deftly depicted in his 2003 film The Italian Job, appear gaudy. Every surface is touched by light, as though the exposure has been fully increased.

I am really close to him, and I wouldn't have taken the role without his OK. Thankfully, he didn't have any reservations.Aamir Khan once told Shakti Kapoor that he was looking for Crime Master Gogo's t-shirt when they met at a foreign airport. Shocked that there were such t-shirts at all, Shakti Kapoor's son went out and bought Aamir one right away. Aamir was wearing the t-shirt with pride when Shakti saw him later at a party. Shakti Kapoor learned that toys and other Crime Master Gogo memorabilia were being sold, and that there were even booths dubbed Crime Master Momos as a result of this revelation.The 1994 film Andaz Apna Apna, which starred Salman Khan and Aamir Khan, was deemed a flop when it first came out in theaters since it didn't leave a lasting impression on the crowd.
