Actress Mandana Kaimi shares a post after long time for her fans: See here
Actress Mandana Karimi has always been very active on her social media and never seems to shy away from flaunting her fit bod. Fans keep getting glimpses of her life. From her breezy beach style to her comfortable messy work from home style, Mandana can steal the show in every look. Her style game is always on point and she looks absolutely stunning in anything and everything, whether it be ethnic wear or gym wear. But Mandana believes that there is something much more important than looking good, and that is feeling good about yourself.
Recently she uploaded a post on Instagram. The picture is a mirror selfie, which captures Mandana in a grey and pink bikini. The bikini accentuated her body and complimented her messy bob haircut. Her phone covers her face and one can also see some of the intricate tattoos on her wrists and arm. Sharing her take on self-love, Mandana wrote in the caption that how she feels about herself is more important than how she looks. Accompanying the caption were hashtags like body positivity, feel good, and feel sexy. Her post was a breath of fresh air, especially during a time when people are battling a global pandemic.
Mandana who was last seen in the Zee5 web series The Casino and in a negative role in the much-loved television serial Ishqbaaz — garnered immense fame after participating in the controversial reality TV show Bigg Boss 9 in 2015. Her last Bollywood outing was the 2015 film Bhaag Johnny alongside Kunal Kemmu and Zoa Morani, and the 2016 film Kya Kool Hain Hum 3 where she shared the screen space with Tusshar Kapoor and Aftab Shivdasani.
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.
