Price war: Now, Jio cuts feature phone recharge value to Rs 49

Reliance Jio on Thursday initiated yet another price war — its third during the month — by slashing the minimum recharge value of its 4G feature phone to Rs 49 per month from the earlier Rs 153. As is known, this phone is targeted towards 2G feature phone users and comes for free in the sense that subscribers need to pay a refundable security deposit of Rs 1,500 which they would get back after three years, if they return the phone after using it. Last year in August, when Jio phone was launched for a Rs 153 recharge value, it offered 0.5 GB data per day.
In early January, the data limit was raised to 1 GB per day. Now, by lowering the recharge value to Rs 49, Jio has reduced the data limit to 1GB a month. However, subscribers who are interested in higher data limit of 1 GB a day can recharge for Rs 153 per month. By lowering the minimum recharge value to Rs 49, the company has basically given those users who are basically voice consumers the choice to pay less.

MS Dhoni’s return catch was big moment in the match: Kane Williamson

MS Dhoni’s return catch was big moment in the match: Kane Williamson New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson lauded his bowlers for drying up the runs during India’s chase in the second ODI here, terming Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s brilliant return catch by Tim Southee as a “big moment” in the match. When asked about how the bowlers and fielders responded while defending a low total, Williamson said: “Someone like MS Dhoni, he can finish matches when he is allowed to play his shots. He is the best in the world. That catch was big for us.” Williamson was happy with the manner his bowlers responded on a tricky surface and also gave an insight to how some adjustments led to the Indian skipper playing 37 dot balls. “On this kind of a surface (Kotla), scrapping was important. You needed to put the ball in areas where it’s tough to get away and try and build that pressure. It was an extremely good effort considering that the ball was damp due to dew factor...

Mission Impossible – Rogue Nation

Mission Impossible – Rogue Nation: Film Review Thanks to a sharp script that springs a real surprise or two and a pace that never slackens, Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation rates as the second-best of the numerous franchise titles of the summer, after Mad Max: Fury Road. Armed with an absorbing mystery plot that does more than just connect the dots between action set-pieces (the most outlandish of which is dispensed with in a Bond-like opener), writer-director Christopher McQuarrie maintains the uptick in M:I quality established by the last two entries, and should land this entry within the series' customary range of a half-billion bucks worldwide. Working with Tom Cruise for the fifth time (if you include his uncredited rewrite on the last M:I feature, Ghost Protocol), McQuarrie benefits dramatically from extending the IMF team's official ostracization to a point of total disenfranchisement from the American government; in an early scene, the CIA chief (Alec B...
