Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif starrer Sooryavanshi was slated to release in March 2020 but was postponed due to the pandemic. The same thing happened with Ranveer Singh starrer 83. Both the films are backed by Reliance Entertainment, and the makers are planning to release one of their films during the festival of Holi this year.

Shibasish Sarkar, CEO of Reliance Entertainment, told Mid-day, "The situation in the country is improving as is the economy, so the mood is largely positive. A section of people headed to theatres to watch Tenet and Wonder Woman 1984. That was an encouraging sign. So, now, we are looking at bringing one of the films in the third week of March, during Holi. We have yet to decide on the film though. These are event films that would have made Rs 300 crore under normal circumstances, so we can't play around with them. We need to be certain of the situation."

"We were supposed to release Sooryavanshi on March 24, and 83 in April. If we follow the same sequence, Sooryavanshi should come first. That said, we are discussing the nitty-gritty,” he added.

Next week, many South films are slated to release, and Sarkar says that they are waiting to see what response those films will receive.

Well, Akshay and Ranveer, both the actors have a huge fan following, and a festival weekend would be perfect for the release of their respective films.

Sooryavanshi is directed by Rohit Shetty and his movies always attract the masses. Talking about 83, the Kabir Khan directorial is based on India’s victory at the World Cup in 1983, and moviegoers have been excited to watch the iconic moment on the big screen again.

Baffling cabinet reshuffle

Piyush Goyal with Jonathan Reynolds at Chequers during the signing of the UK–India Free Trade Agreement in July

Baffling cabinet reshuffle

IN SIR KEIR STARMER’S cabinet reshuffle last week, triggered by the resignation of Angela Rayner, the prime minister shifted Jonathan Reynolds from business and trade secretary and president of the board of trade after barely a year in the post to chief whip, making him responsible for the party.

The move doesn’t make much sense. At Chequers, the UK-India Free Trade Agreement was signed by Reynolds, and the Indian commerce and industry minister, Piyush Goyal. They had clearly established a friendly working relationship.

Microsoft avoids antitrust penalty with Teams ‘unbundling’ offer

Highlights:

  • The European Commission accepted Microsoft’s commitments to unbundle Teams from Office 365 and Microsoft 365.
  • The deal makes Microsoft’s pledges legally binding for at least seven years, avoiding a heavy antitrust fine.
  • Changes include reduced-price Office suites without Teams, easier switching for long-term customers, and improved interoperability.
  • The case followed a 2023 complaint by Slack, now owned by Salesforce.
  • Critics say Microsoft’s bundling harmed competition and denied customers choice.

The European Union has accepted binding commitments from Microsoft to unbundle its Teams communication platform from its Office software suites, sparing the company a potentially heavy antitrust fine. The move follows a lengthy investigation triggered by a complaint from rival service Slack.

EU decision

On Friday, the European Commission confirmed that Microsoft’s commitments would become legally binding under EU competition rules for a period of at least seven years. Regulators had accused the company of “abusive” tying practices by packaging Teams with Office products, a move that they said prevented rivals from competing fairly.
