Read on to get the hang of it all.
Free and Paid Features of Livebeam
So, how does Livebeam work, and what useful features does it boast? First, it’s a sure way to chat in a laid-back and effective way. One plus is that you won’t be introduced to a complicated interface or have to deal with complex settings. There is a set of tools that can help people find each other, base their findings on interests and similar preferences, and more.
Before you join the platform, let’s see which features of Livebeam are free of charge and which are acquired for pay.
Free Features
In a free version of Livebeam, you get tools to help you establish interactions. Here belong:
Newsfeed
Use the newsfeed feature to post different things and read what others share on Livebeam. See what interests people have and whether you suit each other based on those.
Like
One of the quickest ways to bookmark someone’s profile is to like it. Then, you won’t lose it in the flow of other profiles and let this person know you’re open to interacting.
Wink
Typical of dating websites, the wink feature allows you to show readiness to chat and set a good mood to get communication going.
Search page
Another free tool is search and filter. Use parameters such as geographical location, age, and more.
Paid Features
For those up to something more than just the basics, Livebeam has something, too.
Livebeam chat+ Let’s Talk
For special pay, the platform will supply you with ready phrases to use in new conversations. These ice-breakers shorten the getting-acquainted phase and boost confidence for many users.
Exchanging media
In a private chat, you are free to send and get media files, whether it’s a photo from your last trip or video from your favorite concert. It will be helpful if you want to immerse yourself in genuine conversations and get to know participants from other cultures.
Writing mails
Mails can include media and offer a wider symbol capacity compared to chats.
Sending stickers and virtual gifts
As cool add-ons, you can choose gifts and send them to others as a special sign of attention to their personality.
In addition, many new users may ask, ‘Is Livebeam legit?’ According to true user reviews on Trustpilot and Sitejabber, the platform is a legitimate place to find a partner quickly, avoid scams, and experience communication in a whole new format. Here’s some of the users’ feedback we’ve found on review sites:
What are the Pros and Cons of Livebeam
Along with positive feedback on the Internet, you can come across critical comments, and this is because different people have different experiences. However, trying the platform on your own can help you see if Livebeam is right.
Livebeam Pros
Security
You are most likely safe and protected from scammers and those sending unwanted content. Moderators carefully examine whatever is uploaded and remove any malicious data.
A large number of profiles
Choose from almost 3 million profiles to interact with and get exposed to those with similar interests. The site does a good job of matching users with each other and is accurate in recommending profiles to users, so you can be sure there is a reason why this or that page is highlighted.
Diverse circle of users
The site doesn’t limit its participants to their location or age group. It is open for anyone to sign up and use as long as the rules are followed and no harm is intended.
Opportunity to know people deeply
Users have proven that, in many cases, chats, emails, calls, and other Livebeam features can help them get to know others more closely, share values and experiences, and just come together.
Easy interface
Livebeam is easy to use as the site can be navigated intuitively.
Livebeam Cons
Many features are paid
You will need to pay to access all Livebeam capabilities. For anyone coming to the place for the first time, this may be a strong turn-off factor.
Delays in payments
Not everybody gets pay confirmation fast. Due to the long processing time, you might not be able to use the features you paid for right away.
Website version only
Since many users access the dating platform on their smartphones, it would be much nicer for them to have an app.
Complex verification process
With Livebeam’s focus on security, new content creators must submit their IDs and shoot a video. Only once this is done does a creator get a so-called ‘trust mark.’ This process can be time-consuming.
Conclusion
All in all, Livebeam is a fresh and up-to-date dating site that needs dedication to get rooted in and some extra bucks to pay. If you’re willing to go to all lengths to meet the predestined person online, it might be right for you.

This Navratri, the traditional rhythms of Garba are being paired with the timeless melodies of British folk in a new musical fusion that promises to bring fresh energy to the festival.
The piece blends the iconic Gujarati folk song Kon Halave Limdi Ne Kon Halave Pipdi with the classic English–Celtic ballad Scarborough Fair. It is performed as a duet by Gujarati folk singer Kashyap Dave and Western classical vocalist Vanya Bhatt, a graduate of Christ University, Bengaluru.
Rooted in Surat, Gujarat—the city where the British East India Company established its first factory in 1612—the collaboration connects two cultures centuries apart, showing how music can transcend time and geography.
“For me, Kon Halave Limdi captures the joy and energy of Garba,” said Vanya. “Pairing it with Scarborough Fair created a harmony that feels both new and familiar, perfect for global Navratri celebrations.”
Music producer Jimmy Desai called it “a rare and exciting blend.” He added: “It’s not often you hear operatic vocals flowing seamlessly over Garba rhythms. We wanted to preserve the essence of both traditions while making the music festive and universal.”
The English ballad, originally romantic, has been reworked with lyrics highlighting the camaraderie, joy and togetherness central to Navratri.
“The Gujarati melody instantly evokes community spirit,” said Kashyap. “Combining it with a British classic gives it cross-cultural appeal, making it suitable for celebrations anywhere in the world.”
The fusion, the team said, is more than just a song: it is a celebration of heritage, a bridge between East and West, and a musical thread tying hearts together during the festival of dance, devotion and community.

In her social media post, Haley said, 'India must take Trump’s point over Russian oil seriously, and work with the White House to find a solution. The sooner the better.'
INDIA should take president Donald Trump’s concerns over its purchase of Russian crude oil seriously and work with the White House to resolve the matter, US Republican leader Nikki Haley has said.
The Trump administration has been sharply critical of India’s imports of discounted Russian oil. Washington, however, has not voiced the same criticism against China, which is the largest buyer of Russian crude.
India has defended its imports, saying its energy procurement is guided by national interest and market conditions.
Haley, the Indian-origin Republican leader and former South Carolina governor, posted on X on Saturday a portion of an opinion piece she had written in Newsweek four days earlier. Her post came after she faced criticism within her party over the article.
In the piece, Haley wrote that India should be treated as a “prized free and democratic partner” and not like an adversary such as China. “Scuttling 25 years of momentum with the only country that can serve as a counterweight to Chinese dominance in Asia would be a strategic disaster,” she said.
In her social media post, Haley said, “India must take Trump’s point over Russian oil seriously, and work with the White House to find a solution. The sooner the better.”
She added, “Decades of friendship and goodwill between the world’s two largest democracies provide a solid basis to move past the current turbulence. Navigating issues like trade disagreements and Russian oil imports demands hard dialogue. But, we should not lose sight of what matters most: our shared goals. To face China, the United States must have a friend in India.”
Several Trump administration officials have criticised India for its energy ties with Russia. White House Trade Adviser Peter Navarro on Wednesday accused India of running a “profiteering scheme” by using discounted Russian crude and then selling refined petroleum products at higher prices in Europe and elsewhere.
Washington has argued that India’s purchases help fund Moscow’s war in Ukraine. India has rejected the charge.
External affairs minister S Jaishankar, responding to a question on Saturday, said, “It’s funny to have people who work for a pro-business American administration accusing other people of doing business. That’s really curious. If you have a problem buying oil or refined products from India, don’t buy it. Nobody forces you to buy it. But Europe buys, America buys, so you don’t like it, don’t buy it.”
Relations between New Delhi and Washington have been strained after Trump doubled tariffs on Indian goods to 50 per cent, including 25 per cent additional duties linked to India’s Russian oil imports.
India turned to discounted Russian crude after Western countries imposed sanctions on Moscow and reduced purchases following its invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

AFGHANISTAN on Sunday named a spin-heavy squad led by Rashid Khan for the upcoming T20 tri-series in Sharjah and the Asia Cup in the United Arab Emirates.
The squad includes spinners Noor Ahmad, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, AM Ghazanfar and Mohammad Nabi alongside captain Rashid Khan.
Nineteen-year-old Ghazanfar has yet to play a T20I but has featured in domestic cricket and one-day internationals.
Fazlhaq Farooqi, Naveen-ul-Haq, Azmatullah Omarzai and Gulbadin Naib are the pace options.
Afghanistan, who have not played a T20 international in 2025, will face Pakistan in the opening match of the tri-series on Friday.
The six-team Asia Cup begins on September 9, where Afghanistan are in Group B with Bangladesh, Hong Kong and Sri Lanka. They will face Hong Kong in their first match in Abu Dhabi.
Defending champions India, Oman, Pakistan and the UAE are in Group A. After the Asia Cup, Afghanistan will play three ODIs and three T20Is against Bangladesh in the UAE in October.
Afghanistan squad: Rashid Khan (captain), Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Ibrahim Zadran, Darwish Rasooli, Sediqullah Atal, Azmatullah Omarzai, Karim Janat, Mohammad Nabi, Gulbadin Naib, Sharafuddin Ashraf, Mohammad Ishaq, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, AM Ghazanfar, Noor Ahmad, Fareed Ahmad, Naveen-ul-Haq, Fazalhaq Farooqi.
Bangladesh also announced their 16-member squad for the Asia Cup, leaving out Mehidy Hasan Miraz.
Allrounder Saif Hassan and wicketkeeper-batter Nurul Hasan have been picked. The squad will be led by Litton Das.
Mehidy, who was appointed Bangladesh’s ODI captain in June, and opener Saif Hassan were both part of the team that defeated Pakistan 2-1 last month but did not retain their spots for the Asia Cup.
Bangladesh will play three T20 internationals against the Netherlands before opening their Asia Cup campaign against Hong Kong in Abu Dhabi on September 11.
Composer Sushin Shyam points out lack of credit in Splinter Cell: Deathwatch trailer
The teaser uses Aavesham track The Last Dance without naming him or singer Hanumankind
Netflix has not responded to the omission despite rising fan comments
Sushin shares upcoming projects with Suriya, Fahadh Faasil, and Priyadarshan
Malayalam composer Sushin Shyam has raised concerns about Netflix’s Splinter Cell trailer using his Aavesham track without credit. The teaser for Splinter Cell: Deathwatch features parts of The Last Dance from the Fahadh Faasil-starrer, but neither Shyam nor rapper Hanumankind were acknowledged. In a YouTube comment under the official trailer, Shyam thanked Netflix but added it “would’ve been even cooler if my name had made it to the credits too.” Fans have since flooded the comments demanding recognition. The streaming platform has yet to issue a response.
Sushin Shyam questions Netflix after Splinter Cell trailer uses his Aavesham track without credit Instagram/sushintdt/tubelight_dot_com7
Why is Sushin Shyam questioning Netflix’s Splinter Cell trailer?
The debate began when fans noticed familiar beats from Aavesham in the Splinter Cell: Deathwatch teaser, which was released on Netflix’s official channel. The track, The Last Dance, had gained popularity during the 2022 release of Aavesham and was widely praised for its experimental sound.
Shyam’s absence from the credits sparked discussion on YouTube, with many users pointing out that international studios often fail to recognise South Asian artists. By posting his own reply, the composer confirmed the use of his music and called out the missing credit. Neither Netflix nor Ubisoft, which owns the Splinter Cell franchise, has addressed the matter.

Which Aavesham track was used in Splinter Cell?
The track in question is The Last Dance, composed by Sushin Shyam and performed by Hanumankind. In Aavesham, the song played during a high-energy sequence and quickly became a fan favourite. Its inclusion in a global Netflix property like Splinter Cell in fact, highlights how Malayalam cinema’s music is reaching international audiences.
However, the lack of credit has raised questions about licensing transparency. Fans are now asking whether the omission was an oversight or part of a wider issue with music usage in trailers.
Despite the controversy, Shyam continues to expand his filmography across industries. He is scoring music for Balan, directed by Chidambaram and produced by KVN Productions, which has also announced projects with stars like Vijay and Yash. He is also composing for Tharun Moorthy’s Torpedo, starring Fahadh Faasil, Naslen, Arjun Das, and Ganapathi.
Shyam confirmed he will also be part of Tamil actor Suriya’s next film, marking another major milestone in his career. Additionally, he has been roped in for a Hindi thriller directed by Priyadarshan, proving his growing presence in Indian cinema beyond Malayalam.

How did AR Rahman surprise Sushin Shyam?
Away from the credit row, the composer recently celebrated what he described as his “first real fanboy moment.” Legendary musician AR Rahman followed him on Instagram, leaving Shyam both emotional and grateful. He shared a screenshot of Rahman’s message along with Roobaroo from Rang De Basanti, calling it a moment he will always cherish.
