Mirzapur (Amazon Prime Web Series) - Review #ShRt

I have just completed watching Mirzapur, the latest crime series on Amazon Prime and I am definitely not happy with it. The show begins perfectly and then loses the grip just like the show's protagonist duo. The main issue of the show is its predictable script which lacks character development criteria for many characters. Also I feel the ending was hurriedly made. However most of the cast did their job best and that's without help of the script many times.

Through out the web series you can see the extreme violence among power mongers, sex scenes and intense moments. But that was not enough. 

Small town crime drama is not new in India, and Karan Anshuman and Puneet Krishna created Mirzapur keeps you reminding Anurag Kashyap's Gangs of Wasseypur. Also being the story of a crime lord, Mirzapur could not avoid the comparison with very popular Sacred Games from the house of Netflix released recently. The lack of suspense, lineal storyline and predictability fails the show inspite the strong backing from the actor.

I would rate it 2/5.

Jio Updates : September to November #ShRt

Jio who is finding its own way to reach last mile connectivity for its 'gigafiber' ultra broadband services, has acquired majority stakes in Den Networks (66%) and Hathway Cable & Datacom (51.3%) to solve that issue. That brings consolidation in fiber market also, after the telecom sector. The existing users, that's nearly 24 million users in 750 cities in the country, of the both companies may able to upgrade to Jio GigaFiber at ease in due time. However Jio have to invest a fresh to replace old cables with fiber optic cables.

Acquiring these two MSO (multi system operators) and their LCO (local cable operators) partners Jio will definitely get advantages over Airtel and BSNL. I am not considering Vodafone Idea as of now though the merged entity owns You Broadband. As Jio wants to enter the drawing room targeting TV watchers, DTH industry will also be impacted.

And for obvious reasons we can hope further consolidation in this space.

P#rnHub backs Indians with P#rnHub.net 

As per Uttarakhand High Court judgement dated September 28 all ISPs are asked to block hundreds of p#rn websites in India. And Jio follows that quite fast before others to do it. There are already outrages among Jio users regarding that and many prank calls are made to Jio customer care. However using a VPN or Tor Browser that can be easily bypassed. At the same time popular porn site P#rnHub.com lists a new domain P#rnHub.net for Indian users.

Data is the new oil, turns very true for Reliance. In Q3 Reliance Retail and Reliance Jio counts a combined revenue of ₹44,615 crore, exceeding the ₹43,745 crore sales reported by RIL’s petrochemicals business. Reliance Retail holds a 121% growth, while Reliance Jio made a 52% growth.
