The Great Indian Family Opening Weekend

Actor Vicky Kaushal and Manushi Chhillar starrer The Great Indian Family, had a disastrous opening weekend at the box office collections failing to touch even Rs 4 crores. The opening of the movie was highly weak with collections of around Rs 1 crore.

There was  a huge hope for the numbers to grow manifolds over the weekend owing to good reception but that did not happen as the Vicky Kaushal starrer could only grow by a meagre 40 percent and a dismal 5-7 percent, to take the 3 day total of the film to Rs 3.90 crores nett. 

The Great Indian Family's fate has been locked and what is to be seen is how bad it can be from here. The film can crawl its way to a double digit total or faces outright rejection even in the weekdays to end up doing numbers of under Rs 10 crores. 

The Indian box office is performing in extremes with movie that work, doing extra business and movies that don't, facing outright rejection. Fukrey and The Vaccine War are all set to release on the 28th of September and that shall be followed by Mission Raniganj.

World Lung day 2023

September 25 is recognized as World Lung Day, which serves as a reminder of the value of lung health and the necessity for worldwide effort to avoid lung diseases. Millions of individuals worldwide are afflicted by lung disorders, which pose a serious threat to public health. In this post, we'll look at some of the most prevalent lung conditions and talk about some safeguards for your respiratory health.

Common Lung Conditions

COPD: Chronic bronchitis and emphysema are two lung diseases that are part of the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) group. Long-term exposure to irritants like cigarette smoke and air pollution is frequently the reason. Avoid smoking, and minimize your exposure to pollutants, to prevent COPD.

Asthma: Wheezing, breathlessness, and coughing are symptoms of the chronic illness asthma, which is characterized by airway inflammation. Asthma cannot be cured, although it can be controlled with medicine and avoidance of its triggers, such as allergies and tobacco smoke.

Lung Cancer: Smoking is the main risk factor for developing lung cancer, but other environmental variables such as exposure to radon gas can significantly raise that risk. Quit smoking, have your house radon tested, and lead a healthy lifestyle to prevent lung cancer.

Pneumonia: Pneumonia can be extremely harmful for the very young and the elderly. It is frequently brought on by bacterial or viral illnesses. Getting vaccinated, maintaining excellent hygiene, and avoiding direct contact with sick people can all help prevent pneumonia.

Tuberculosis: The disease known as tuberculosis (TB) is a bacterial illness that mainly affects the lungs. When an infected individual coughs or sneezes, it disperses through the air. Early detection, vaccination (BCG vaccine in some countries), and adherence to recommended treatment regimens are all examples of preventive approaches.

Preventive Actions

Don't Smoke: Smoking is the main contributor to lung ailments that can be avoided. Quitting smoking is the single most effective action you can take to safeguard your lung health if you smoke.

Stay Active: Regular exercise helps enhance lung capacity and general health. Additionally, it aids in maintaining a healthy weight, which is crucial for lung health.

Vaccinations: Make certain that you and your kids are up to date on your immunizations, particularly for illnesses like influenza and pneumonia.

Healthy Diet: An adequate intake of fruits and vegetables, together with a well-balanced diet, supports the health of the lungs and a robust immune system.

Air Quality: Pay attention to local notifications about the quality of the air, and try to stay inside on days with high levels of air pollution.

Asian Games 2023

On Monday, September 25, 2023, Nearly 150 to 200 Asian Games athletes have been tested for doping so far, the Olympic Council of Asia said. There is no positive results found so far. 

While speaking at an anti-doping press conference on the second complete day of the Games in the Chinese city of Hangzhou, the OCA said dope-testing was "gaining momentum" at the event. 

Mani Jegathesan, an adviser to the OCA anti-doping committee, warned that drug cheats would be eliminated at every cost.

Up to 200 athletes have been tested so far, he said, but any positive results will take a few days to come in notice.

"Every athlete participating in these Games must understand that they could be picked at any time," Jegathesan warned. "That is the best step to ensuring we have a clean event."

There are about 12,000 athletes at the 19th Asian Games, more competitors than the Olympics, and Jegathesan said it would be impossible to test them all.

Instead, they will prioritize, including picking out those who break world or Asian records.

Bridge In Gujarat Surendranagar Collapses

On Sunday evening, at least four persons were injured after some part of an old bridge on the Bhogavo river in Gujarat's Surendranagar district collapsed, an official said.

The incident took place when a 40-ton dumper was crossing the bridge on a panchayat road near Wadhwan city, even though the entry of heavy vehicles was banned, the official said.

"A dumper and two motorcycles were on the bridge when the first slab collapsed. The incident left four persons with minor injuries," said Surendranagar Collector KC Sampat.

The heavy vehicle and motorcycles fell into the Bhogavo River, he said.

The collector said the bridge was four decades old and it was under the care of the state Road and Buildings Department.

A warning sign board was also put up and the bridge was barricaded to prevent the movement of heavy vehicles on it, he said.

"Despite the barricading, a loaded dumper tried to cross the bridge, leading to the collapse of its first slab," the collector said.

He said the request for a new bridge had already been applied.
