Box Office: Mohanalal’s L2 Empuraan smashes Rs 100 crore worldwide in 48 hours, setting new records

Malayalam superstar Mohanlal‘s latest action bonanza, his previous blockbuster Lucifer’s sequel, L2 Empuraan, directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran, has rewritten box office history. The film made an enormous ₹65 crore gross worldwide on its opening day, an exceptional feat for a Malayalam film. Within just 48 hours, it stormed past the ₹100 crore mark, firmly placing itself in the record books. This milestone makes L2 Empuraan Mohanlal’s third film to enter the prestigious ₹100 crore club. Back in 2016, he achieved this feat for the first time with action thriller Pulimurugan. Directed by Vysakh and produced by Tomichan Mulakuppadam this film has Jagapati Babu and Kamalinee Mukherjee in key roles. The film wasn’t just another blockbuster but it changed how Malayalam cinema looked at the Big Fat Crore Club. Then came Lucifer (2019), directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran, a political thriller packed with powerhouse performances from Tovino Thomas, Manju Warrier, and Vivek Oberoi. Both films proved their mettle at the box office, gradually making their way into the elite ₹100 crore league. But L2 Empuraan? It didn’t …

Delhi cops nab gangster by setting up ‘honey trap’ on Instagram

NEW DELHI Kumar, a resident of Nangloi, is a life convict and a parole jumper in an abduction-murder case in 2005. (Representative photo) In a reversal of the usual dynamic, Delhi Police arrested a wanted member of the Gogi gang by “honey trapping” him. The police impersonated a Mumbai-based model and invited the gangster, Manoj Kumar, to a meeting in Safdarjung, south Delhi, on Tuesday and subsequently, arrested him. An officer aware of the matter said that two head constables posted with the crime branch, identified by their single names as Dinesh and Sukhbir, found Kumar active on Instagram and contacted him last December. “The officers saw this as an opportunity and created a fake account of a Mumbai-based model on Instagram. They posted a few photos of the model as well to make it look real,” the officer, not wishing to be named, said. “After a few conversations over the next few days, he believed that it was indeed a woman. In the past three months, he often asked the ‘model’ to video call …

Do You Hear What I Hear? Amazon Removes Echo Privacy Setting — What You Should Know

Do You Hear What I Hear? Amazon Removes Echo Privacy Setting — What You Should Know

Image: crosathorian/Flickr/Creative Commons Last week, Amazon sent an email to select Echo users, warning they must now consent to having their Alexa voice recordings sent to the company’s cloud for processing. The email was sent to users with the Do Not Send Voice Recordings setting enabled on their Echo speaker or smart display, which ensured their commands are processed locally on the device; however, starting March 28, this setting will no longer be available, and all recordings will be processed at Amazon data centres, the company confirmed to TechRepublic. On the cutoff date, any Echo that still has this setting enabled will automatically switch to Don’t Save Recordings, meaning voice commands will be transmitted to Amazon’s cloud for processing but deleted afterward. Any previously saved voice recordings will also be deleted, and Alexa’s voice ID — a feature that recognises individual users’ voices to provide personalised responses — will be disabled. In its email, Amazon stated the decision to discontinue the Do Not Send Voice Recordings setting was made to “expand Alexa’s capabilities with generative …

What the winners of Mumbai marathon said about giving up on setting a time record on hot day at the race | Sport-others News

While Mumbai crowned fresh champions in Eritrean Berhane Tesfay and Anish Thapa, amongst Indians, the race didn’t prove conducive to aim for a course record bonus. Here’s how the winners saw the race, as narrated in press conference. Elite men’s champ Tesfay changes strategy after 25km While a six-rinner back stayed tight till the 27 km mark in the men’s elite race, it would become evident the course record was out of reach with challenging hot conditions. The Ethiopian Tesfaye Demeke, had snatched the lead when there were only 3 km left to finish. Both pre-race favourites Rono and Lemi started showing fatigue as the two Eritreans, Berhane Tesfay and Merhawi Kesete, increased their tempo and ran ahead of Demeke in the waning stages of the race. “I’m happy to have won today’s race. The race’s first half went smoothly, and I stayed focused on keeping a steady pace. After 25K, my strategy shifted to securing the win rather than chasing a specific time. This victory means a lot to me, and it’s a testament …
