News Summary:

On March 10, 2026, the Information and Broadcasting Ministry directed intermediary platform Telegram to remove and disable access to 3142 URL links after finding channels violating the Copyright Act 1957 by streaming content owned or licensed by various content owners, OTT platforms, and producers without authorization. This action followed complaints alleging piracy from entities including JioCinema and Amazon Prime Video. Earlier in March, media consulting firm Ormax reported a broader trend among streaming platforms, including JioCinema, to cut back on original shows made in Indian languages, noting an 18% decline in 2024 and an additional 13% fall in 2025. Previously, on February 3, JioCinema and JioStudios garnered significant attention for the success of Ranveer Singh's film "Dhurandhar," which grossed over Rs 1300 crore at the worldwide box office; the film's success, which further cemented Mukesh Ambani's company in the production market, was attributed in part to Jyoti Deshpande's conviction. This follows news from February 2 that the Indian Super League (ISL) media rights for the 2025–26 season sold to FanCode for ₹8.62 crore, marking a nearly 97 percent reduction from the ₹275 crore per season valuation previously paid by Viacom18, a major player in sports content and a partner to JioCinema.

Who is Jyoti Deshpande? Once a tuition teacher, now close aide of Mukesh Ambani, brain behind Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar, she works as…

Mukesh Ambani's JioCinema and JioStudios are currently garnering all the hype, thanks to the success of Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar, which has earned over Rs 1300 crore at the worldwide box office. When JioStudios first greenlit Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar, the studio believed that it was a gamble that could go either way; however, it was Jyoti Deshpande's conviction that not only led to the film's success but also further cemented Mukesh Ambani's company in the production market.

2025: The year Indian sports saw chaos, comebacks, and breakthroughs

From cricket’s highs to football’s lows, 2025 reshaped India’s sports landscape MUMBAI: Indian sports rode a dizzying wave of contradictions. Cricket’s coffers were overflowing, women’s sports were finally commanding respect and rupees, tech was turning stadiums into data factories, and yet India’s second most-watched league had no broadcaster, no start date, and clubs were haemorrhaging money.
