Still looking for the perfect segue to dive into Korean entertainment? Amazon Prime Video’s latest adventure is ready to transport you to the world of your favourite oppas and K-pop stars this November.
BTS FESTA 2024: Message from Jin and the NCT Nation concert movie are now streaming on Channel K via Amazon Prime Video India.
Channel K brings an extensive lineup of K-pop concerts, reality shows, premium K-dramas, and more to India as the country’s first-ever Korean entertainment channel. Boasting its “fan-first” platform, the ultimate hub for multi-genre experience brought to India by IMX (Interactive Media Mix) caters to the demands of Indian audiences. With the aim of establishing itself as the go-to destination for all things Korean in India, Channel K’s dynamic catalogue offers 1,000 hours of content within the first six months of its launch – planned for November 19.
The brand-new Amazon Prime Video channel opens previously closed gates for Indian K-pop fans and grants exclusive access to vibrant content, including concerts and other events that were otherwise limited to the local audience’s exposure.
Why Channel K will become a go-to escape for K-pop fans?
Channel K’s initial catalogue helps the Indian target audience stay connected to the world of K-pop and K-entertainment at large. It sets the stage for bigger things coming ahead. From 2024 BTS FESTA: Message from Jin to monthly K-pop music programs, such as Music Bank and Show! Music Core, Channel K’s seamless, fan-centred offerings unlock a new world of fanfare by bridging the gap between global pop stars and Indian fans.
More exclusive K-pop-driven content premieres are set to include concert footage, exclusive documentaries, fan meetings and more showcases from NCT and other beloved artists from the industry. Additionally, Korea’s latest releases, including real-time premieres of K-dramas and K-pop content, allow viewers to stay up to date.
What’s in it for K-drama enthusiasts?
From the get-go, Channel K’s November 19 launch dropped the curtain on a premium collection of 20+ movies, 20+ dramas, 5+ variety shows and K-pop content. Teasing monthly K-pop specials and exclusive concert releases, Channel K’s genre-diverse experience helps Indian fan communities stay connected to the latest trends.
From romance and thrillers to historical dramas, the brand-new Korean channel’s constantly growing library will also transport viewers back in time. In addition to moving ahead with the times through 2024 releases like the K-drama Doubt and the fantasy drama film Our Season, starring Kim Hae Sook and Shin Min A, Channel K also turns back to classic K-drama soaps like Personal Taste, which originally aired in the early 2000s with Lee Min Ho and Son Ye Jin as leads.
A trusted pocket-friendly steal deal
What’s more? As the “gateway to Korean entertainment,” Channel K’s culture-bridging plans offer an entire library of the best premium content at an affordable price. Tune in for full access to Amazon Prime Video’s latest expansion for just 1 INR. The unmissable, limited-time offer will unmistakably get you hooked on Korean content through an Indian window, unlike before.
Even before expanding its reach to India, IMX paved the way for Korean entertainment in Japan. As a leader in content acquisition and distribution since 2001, its Channel K venture has already amassed 20+ years in the K-industry, bringing content from South Korean networks such as KBS, MBC, SBS, CJ, JTBC, Mnet and more to Japan. Now it’s time for India to welcome the best of K-entertainment with open arms!
Advanced Micro Devices said on Thursday it plans to start mass production of a new version of its Artificial Intelligence (AI) chip called the MI325X in the fourth quarter of the year, as it seeks to bolster its presence in a market dominated by Nvidia.
At an event in San Francisco, AMD CEO Lisa Su said the company plans to release its next-generation MI350 series chips in the second half of 2025. These chips include an increased amount of memory and will boast a new underlying architecture that AMD said will improve performance significantly over the prior MI300X and MI250X chips.
The announcements were broadly expected based on AMD disclosures earlier this year. They failed to cheer investors, who sent AMD shares down nearly five percent in afternoon trading. Some analysts attributed the fall to the absence of large new cloud-computing customers for the chips.
Shares of rival Nvidia were up 1.5 percent while Intel fell 1.6 percent.
Demand for AI processors from major technology firms such as Microsoft and Meta Platforms has been far outpacing supply from Nvidia and AMD, allowing the semiconductor companies to sell as much as they can produce.
That has driven a massive rally in chip stocks over the past two years, with AMD’s shares up about 30 percent since a recent low in early August.
“There are no new customers announced so far,” said Summit Insights research analyst Kinngai Chan, adding that the stock had gained ahead of the event in anticipation of “something new.”
Santa Clara, California-based AMD said vendors such as Super Micro Computer would begin to ship its MI325X AI chip to customers in the first quarter of 2025. The AMD design aims to compete with Nvidia’s Blackwell architecture.
The MI325X chip uses the same architecture as the already-available MI300X, which AMD launched last year. The new chip includes a new type of memory that AMD said will speed AI calculations.
AMD’s next-generation AI chips are likely to put further pressure on Intel, which has struggled to deploy a coherent AI chips strategy. Intel has forecast AI chip sales of more than $500 million (roughly Rs. 4,203 crore) in 2024.
New Server, PC Chips
AMD’s Su also said at the event that the company does not currently have plans to use contract chip manufacturers beyond Taiwan’s TSMC for advanced manufacturing processes, which are used to produce speedy AI chips.
“We would love to use more capacity outside of Taiwan. We are very aggressive in the use of TSMC’s Arizona facility,” Su said.
AMD also unveiled several networking chips that help speed moving data between chips and systems inside data centers.
The company announced the availability of a new version of its server central processing unit (CPU) design. The family of chips formerly codenamed Turin includes a version of one of them that is designed to keep the graphics processing units (GPUs) fed with data – which will speed AI processing.
The flagship chip boasts nearly 200 processing cores and is priced at $14,813 (roughly Rs. 12.45 lakh). The whole line of processors uses the Zen 5 architecture that offers speed gains of as much as 37 percent for advanced AI data crunching.
Beyond the data center chips, AMD announced three new PC chips aimed at laptops, based on the Zen 5 architecture. The new chips are tuned to run AI applications and will be capable of running Microsoft’s Copilot+ software.
In July, AMD raised its AI chip forecast to $4.5 billion (roughly Rs. 37,834 crore) for the year from its previous target of $4 billion (roughly Rs. 33,630 crore). Demand for its MI300X chips has surged because of the frenzy around building and deploying generative AI products.
This year analysts expect AMD to report data center revenue of $12.83 billion (roughly Rs. 10,78,711 crore), according to LSEG estimates. Wall Street expects Nvidia to report data center revenue of $110.36 billion (roughly Rs. 9,27,877 crore). Data center revenue is a proxy for AI chips needed to build and run AI applications.
Analysts’ rising earnings expectations have kept AMD and Nvidia’s valuations in check despite the share surge. Both the companies trade at more than 33 times their 12-month forward earnings estimates, compared with the benchmark S&P 500’s 22.3.
Recently, a comedian made fun of Deepika Padukone for her statements about her depression and motherhood. These statements made on Samay Raina’s show have not gone down too well with netizens and fans of the actress. Amidst that, Salman Khan‘s ex-girlfriend Somy Ali has come out in support of Deepika and lauded an actress of her stature to come out and speak about depression. Somy also appreciated the way Aamir Khan has opened up about taking therapy sessions with hsi daughter. She thinks that this is progress, thus further stating that if this would have happened years ago, Parveen Babi would still be alive. Somy stated, as reported by IANS, “I have been advocating for years that anyone with a platform should openly discuss mental health. When Deepika Padukone spoke about her struggles on a public forum, it was a groundbreaking moment—not just for the industry but for the world. However, as I predicted, she was mocked by some, labelled as someone seeking publicity, and not taken seriously. Here is an actor of her stature publicly sharing that she was perpetually depressed and had suicidal thoughts, and yet, instead of empathy, she faced ridicule. I can’t say I was shocked. I experience the same response when I share anything truthful without sugarcoating it.” She further added, “Despite the backlash, Deepika should be celebrated. She should be placed on a pedestal, given awards, and shown the utmost respect—not just for speaking out but for creating a mental health foundation. I bow my head in respect, particularly because my own mother suffered from mental health issues throughout her life and was physically punished by her own family and spouse for it. I thank Deepika for taking a stand—a stand no actor of her generation had the courage to take. If someone had done so years ago, perhaps Parveen Babi would still be alive today, taking her medication for paranoid schizophrenia.” Appreciating Aamir, she said, “This is progress at its best. This is why I have always considered Aamir Khan to be one of the most intellectually talented celebrities in the industry, alongside Shah Rukh Khan and a few others.” Somy concluded by saying that everyone person should have therapy session atleast once a week.
Hospital officials in northern Gaza say many people have been killed in overnight Israeli air strikes.
Gazan rescue teams say search operations began early in the morning after Israel bombed at least five buildings in Beit Lahia and Gaza City.
Hamas-aligned media say dozens of people were killed and many are still buried in the rubble – including women and children.
There was no immediate comment from the Israeli military. It has recently intensified its offensive in northern Gaza, saying it is stopping Hamas from regrouping.
The agency, quoted by AFP news agency, said many of the dead were women and children.
Israel’s ground offensive in northern Gaza has displaced up to 130,000 people over the past five weeks.
The UN says 75,000 people remain under siege with dwindling supplies of water and food in the towns of Beit Lahia, Jabalia and Beit Hanoun.
Last week’s report by Human Rights Watch said Israel had committed war crimes and crimes against humanity by deliberately causing the mass displacement of Palestinians in Gaza.
About 1.9 million people – 90% of Gaza’s population – have fled their homes over the past year, and 79% of the territory is under Israeli-issued evacuation orders, according to the UN.
Israel launched a campaign to destroy Hamas in response to the group’s unprecedented attack on southern Israel on 7 October 2023, in which about 1,200 people were killed and 251 others were taken hostage.
Nearly 44,000 people have been killed and more than 104,000 injured in Gaza since then, according to the territory’s Hamas-run health ministry.
Fourteen of the 15 council members voted in favour of the draft, which demanded that the war in Gaza “must end immediately, unconditionally and permanently and all remaining hostages must be immediately and unconditionally released”.
Deputy US ambassador to the UN, Robert Wood, said the document “abandoned” the necessity for there to be “a linkage between a ceasefire and the release of hostages”.
Wood said the proposed resolution would have sent a “dangerous message” to Hamas.
He has said that he sees a “real opportunity” to end the conflict in Lebanon after the Lebanese government and Hezbollah largely agreed to a US ceasefire proposal.
Oppo Reno 13 series is scheduled to launch in China on November 25. In recent weeks, the company has revealed the RAM, storage and colour options of the upcoming smartphones. Ahead of its anticipated debut, Oppo Reno 13, the base variant in the lineup, has been now spotted on a benchmarking platform, along with several of its specifications. The listing suggests that the successor to the Reno 12 may be powered by the same MediaTek processor that is also speculated to power the Reno 13 Pro model.
Oppo Reno 13 Geekbench Listing
First spotted by Gizmochina, Oppo Reno 13 has allegedly been listed on Geekbench with the model number PKM110, which is likely to be the China variant. It is said to be powered by an octa-core chipset with an ARMv8 architecture, one prime core clocked at 3.35GHz, three mid-cores operating at 3.20GHz, and four efficiency cores capped at 2.20GHz.
While the chipset’s name isn’t stated, the listed clock speeds suggest it is speculated to be the MediaTek Dimensity 8300 SoC, which is also reported to power the Oppo Reno 13 Pro. The chipset may be paired with approximately 11.21GB of RAM, likely to be translated to 12GB of RAM, and the motherboard has “k6897v1_64” as its identifier.
In the Geekbench 6.2.0 for Android AArch64 cross-platform benchmark, the upcoming Oppo Reno 13 had 1,256 and 3,958 single and multi-core scores, respectively. It is said to run on Android 15 and may adopt ColorOS 15 — the new operating system (OS) for Oppo and OnePlus smartphones that was unveiled in China last month.
Oppo has already confirmed that the base Reno 13 model in China will be available in five RAM and storage configurations — 12GB + 256GB, 12GB + 512GB, 16GB + 256GB, 16GB + 512GB and 16GB + 1TB. At the moment, a single Butterfly Purple colourway has been confirmed, although it could be joined by other colour options too in the days leading up to the launch.

Mumbai: AR Rahman and Saira Banu announced their separation after 29 years of marriage and this came as a shocker to their close ones and fans. However, one more announcement came under notice AR Rahman’s bassist Mohini Dey too dropped her divorce announcement hours after the music composer and this led to speculation about the connection between the divorce announcements. Saira Banu’s lawyer Vandana Shah has dismissed the connection between these two parties’ divorces and speaking to Republic TV she mentioned that Saira has been going through ups and downs and that divorce is not a celebration for anyone.
Saira’s lawyer spoke about the connection between Rahman’s and Mohini Dey’s divorce, “Not at all. There is no link between the two. Saira and Mr Rahman have taken this decision on their own. There is no link between the two news at all.”.
“We had hoped to reach the grand thirty, but all things, it seems, carry an unseen end. Even the throne of God might tremble at the weight of broken hearts. Yet, in this shattering, we seek meaning, though the pieces may not find their place again. To our friends, thank you for…
— A.R.Rahman (@arrahman) November 19, 2024
Further adding, “When a marriage ends, it is a painful decision. No one is happy when a marriage ends. Divorce is not an occasion to be celebrated. Saira has been through her ups and downs in this marriage.”
Vandana insisted both Rahman and Saira are dignified individuals and respect their privacy,” It’s been a long marriage and every marriage goes through its ups and downs and I am extremely happy that if it has come to an end, it has come to an end in such a dignified manner and we have put out a joint press release and I think it speaks volumes for both of them that they both are extremely dignified people and as everyone knows, both of them have been very private and personal about their personal lives. I can just say that both of them wish well for each other and they both will continue to support each other.”
AR Rahman too expressed his disappointment after his wife Saira’s lawyer released the divorce statement in public.
Microsoft Phone Link – the company’s app that enables users to pair their Android smartphones to a Windows PC – has expanded its instant hotspot feature to beyond Samsung smartphones, according to a report. Users with Android smartphones from brands such as OnePlus and Oppo may be able to use their handsets as portable hotspots to quickly connect their PCs to their internet without needing to manually configure the details. It builds upon Copilot chatbot-supported features recently brought to Android smartphones via a Phone Link app.
Microsoft Phone Link Instant Hotspot Feature Rolling Out
The Instant Hotspot feature was previously only available on Windows 11 PCs via Samsung smartphones connected to the Phone Link app. It is said to work by leveraging a Windows service that is bundled with the operating system (OS). According to an Android Authority report, other smartphones, including models from OnePlus and Oppo, have now gained support for this feature.
In order to access the feature, users will have to open the Link to Windows app and look for an option titled “Connect your PC to your mobile hotspot in an instant”. It was reportedly rolled out as a server-side update. Handsets which have not received it yet may receive an over-the-air (OTA) update that could bring the Windows Service app to the latest version, according to the publication.
In addition to the introduced availability of the instant hotspot feature, Android smartphone users will be reportedly able to take advantage of other features such as cross-device copy and paste and app streaming.
In July, Microsoft reportedly rolled out a new update for Copilot that brought the capability of managing certain tasks on a linked Android smartphone. Users can connect their Windows 11 PCs to their Android 14-based smartphones via the Phone Link app to enable Copilot control for various handset functions, such as sending SMS, setting alarms, and getting message summaries. However, the feature is said to be still in beta and may not be available to public users yet.
