  • News9 Plus unveils new docu-series ‘Poison in the Air.’

    News9 Plus unveils new docu-series ‘Poison in the Air.’

    Mumbai: News9 Plus, the world’s first news OTT platform, has unveiled a groundbreaking new series titled ‘Poison in the Air.’ The series features two episodes: ‘Air Apocalypse,’ shedding light on the alarming rise of lung cancer among non-smokers in India due to escalating air pollution levels, and ‘Breathless,’ a comprehensive exploration into the life-threatening consequences of deteriorating air quality in India.

    ‘Breathless’ opens with a chilling revelation about the frequency of breathing—an involuntary action we perform every five to six seconds, totalling 12 to 20 breaths per minute, approximately 23,000 breaths in a day. The narrative poses a haunting question: What if every breath you take poses a threat to your life?

    While ‘Air Apocalypse’ delves into the shocking findings of studies conducted by renowned institutions, such as Medanta Medicity, exposing the staggering increase in lung cancer cases among non-smokers, particularly in the pollution-ridden region of Delhi NCR.

    Both the episodes draw inspiration from real-life experiences of individuals like Neera Shrivastav, a Delhi homemaker who, despite not smoking or drinking, was diagnosed with lung cancer in June 2022. And Qazi Riaz Masood and Saadia Siddiqui, who share their struggles with the immediate health impacts of air pollution on themselves and their families.

    The series unveils the shocking revelation that pollution, particularly in Delhi NCR, is a leading cause of lung cancer among non-smokers, as attested by medical experts and studies conducted by institutions like Medanta Medicity.

    Medical experts, Institute of Internal Medicine chairman Dr. Randeep Guleria, and fellow at the Council on Energy, Environment & Water Karthik Ganesan, who feature in ‘Breathless’ provide invaluable insights into the alarming health hazards posed by air pollution. Dr. Guleria emphasizes the short-term and long-term effects on the respiratory system, heart, and other organs, while Ganesan sheds light on the complex factors contributing to Delhi’s severe air quality.

    In an eye-opening interview in the episode of ‘Air Apocalypse’, Medanta Institute of chest surgery, chest onco surgery, and Lung Transplantation chairman Dr Arvind Kumar, reveals a significant shift in the demographic profile of lung cancer patients. The age at which non-smokers are diagnosed with lung cancer has preponed by about a decade and a half, with a staggering increase in cases among those under 50, including individuals in their 30s and even late 20s. The series underscores the detrimental impact of air pollution on the human body, especially for women and young individuals who have never smoked.

    The series also features PSRI Institute of Pulmonology, chairman Dr. GC Khilnani, National Center for Atmospheric Research chairman Gufran Beig, Centre for Science and Environment executive director Anumita Roy Choudhary.

    ‘Poison in the Air’ featuring both the episodes was also broadcasted on News9 Live, the 24×7 live streaming platform that is an integral part of the News9 Mediaverse.

  • Viacom18’s action against FairPlay results in the arrest of key stakeholder of the betting platform!

    Viacom18’s action against FairPlay results in the arrest of key stakeholder of the betting platform!

    Mumbai: During the unprecedented success of IPL 2023, Viacom18 was locked in legal battle against the betting website ‘FairPlay’ for the  infringement of digital streaming rights of Viacom18. This update comes on the heels of the arrest of Gulam Abbas Muni, a key figure behind FairPlay’s operations in India. The saga, originating in early 2023 with the media buzz surrounding IPL, has unfolded with the entertainment network Viacom18 taking due legal recourse in the face of infringement of their exclusive rights.

    Viacom18 Media Pvt. Ltd. general counsel commented on the matter, stating, “The unlawful streaming made it imperative for us to intervene promptly. After almost a whole year of persistence we now have one of the perpetrators behind bars. In such cases prompt action is of utmost importance. The damage caused was not just financial but also to our reputation. At Viacom18, we consistently strive to stay ahead of infringers/pirates through proactive legal measures and will continue to do so.”

    Taking advantage of the hype around IPL 2023, the online betting platform ‘FairPlay’ falsely advertised across print, digital media, and hoardings in Mumbai and other major cities. Not only endorsing the gaming/betting website but also illicitly associating itself with the streaming rights of  IPL, using taglines like “Watch IPL for Free, LIVE”. Subsequently, it was revealed that IPL 2023 was being unlawfully streamed on the FairPlay platform.

    Having secured the digital rights for IPL from BCCI for a period of 5 years, Viacom18 took swift measures by seeking a pre-infringement injunction. By an order dated 21st December 2022 passed by the Hon’ble Madras High Court, more than 4,750 specified websites, Internet Service Providers (ISPs), unknown parties were restrained from streaming/hosting/downloading/exhibiting/transmitting or making available content that violates Viacom18’s rights in the IPL.

    On 19th April 2023, the Hon’ble Madras High Court granted an Injunction against FairPlay, thereby restraining the unauthorized digital streaming/hosting/downloading/exhibiting/transmitting of the IPL 2023 on the FairPlay website, including any advertisements. Given FairPlay’s infringement of Viacom18’s rights, Viacom18 filed a suit before the Madras High Court and filed an application for Interim Injunction against FairPlay.

    Furthering their commitment to protecting their rights, Viacom18 filed a criminal complaint before the Maharashtra Cyber Digital Crime Unit (MCDCU) against FairPlay and its owners and distributors, namely Abbas, Penny, and Joe, for copyright infringement, criminal conspiracy, and cheating, among other offenses, thus enforcing Viacom18’s rights in IPL.

    After months of thorough investigation, on 12 December 2023, the MCDCU successfully arrested Abbas, one of the prime accused. The Accused Gulam Abbas Muni was produced before the Court on the same day and has been remanded to police custody until the next date.

    In conclusion, through prompt and proactive actions, Viacom18 has continued their fight against piracy, resulting in a successful enforcement of its rights and reducing piracy.
