Mumbai Boy Sells Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan's Fake Autographs, Earns Rs 3200
Last Updated: Sarthak Sachdeva is the same influencer who had accused Shah Rukh Khan's wife, Gauri Khan's restaurant Torii of serving "fake" paneer. After checking which celebrity cafe is offering fake paneer to its customers, content creator Sarthak Sachdeva is back with another of his notorious gimmicks. Recently, he decided to sell fake autographs of Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and Hrithik Roshan to people in Mumbai, and guess what? He sold it all and earned Rs 3200 in a day. In a video that Sarthak shared on his Instagram handle, he said, 'Aaj main dekhunga celebrities ke autograph bechke main kitne paise kama sakta hu? Ek professional artist ki madad se maine Shah Rukh se Salman, kaye saare celebrities ke sign copy karwa liye. Inhe main autograph bata ke Rs 100 mein bechne nikal gaya." The young content creator shared that even though people were a little hesitant to buy these autographs from him initially, they soon got attracted. He sold his first fake autograph for Rs 100. Sarthak then revealed he was soon surrounded by youngsters who were very keen to buy these autographs from him. 'India mein Bollywood ka craze pata chal raha tha. Log mujhse wholesale mein liye jaa rahe the. Yeh toh solid business hai," he said and then added, 'Baccho se lekar saare naujawan aur aunty ko lag raha tha yeh autographs asli hai. Aur aise hi saare bik gaye." He then revealed that he earned Rs 3200 in a day by selling these fake autographs.

In a video, Sarthak performed an iodine tincture test on a piece of paneer served at the restaurant. This test, which is commonly used to detect the presence of starch, turned the paneer black and blue when the iodine touched it. Reacting to the colour change, Sarthak declared, 'Shah Rukh Khan ke restaurant mein paneer nakli tha. Ye dekh ke mere toh hosh udd gaye the." The restaurant, however, later clarified that the dish in question contained soy-based ingredients, which would naturally react with iodine.

Torii Named a Leader in 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ — Here's What It Means for SaaS Management
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Gartner has once again named Torii a Leader in its 2025 Magic Quadrant™ for SaaS Management Platforms (SMPs). This year's report evaluates 17 vendors in the SMP space, revealing a growing divide between tools that report on SaaS data—and platforms built to act on it. Torii's placement as a Leader confirms what its customers already know: a modern SMP must be all-in-one, cross-functional, and built to integrate—not replace—your existing stack. For IT, procurement, finance, and security leaders evaluating an SMP, this distinction matters. SaaS sprawl is no longer just an IT problem. It's a business-wide challenge—costing millions in wasted spend, exposing compliance gaps, and slowing decision-making across functions. Torii's placement as a Leader confirms what its customers already know: a modern SMP must be all-in-one, cross-functional, and built to integrate—not replace—your existing stack. 'This isn't a pivot—it's what we've built toward since day one,' said Uri Haramati, CEO and Co-founder of Torii. 'Rising costs, AI sprawl, surprise renewals—these affect every team. Torii brings all of it into focus and gives teams the power to act quickly, without extra tools or consultants.' Our Read on the Report: The Market Is Maturing The 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant makes one thing clear: SMPs are no longer just nice-to-haves. They are a strategic requirement for organizations looking to manage SaaS at scale. Our key takeaways from this year's report: SMPs must support cross-functional collaboration, not just IT Actionability is now a core requirement—data without next steps isn't enough The next frontier is agentic AI —platforms that don't just suggest what to do, but take action directly As SaaS complexity grows, intelligent execution will continue to separate true SaaS Management leaders from reporting tools. As a Leader, we believe Torii's placement reinforces its role in defining what modern SaaS Management requires: complete visibility, built-in automation, and real-time intelligence that drives action—not just insights. What to Look for in an SMP (and How Torii Delivers) The Gartner Magic Quadrant evaluates SMPs based on Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute. That means understanding the full scope of SaaS challenges—and delivering results across every team, use case, and stage of the software lifecycle. Here's what a modern SaaS Management Platforms must offer—and why Torii was a Leader: Comprehensive SaaS Discovery It's not enough to track known apps. SMPs must uncover Shadow IT, AI-powered tools, and hidden usage across the business. Torii combines multiple discovery methods with AI-driven app classification to expose every tool—whether centrally purchased or adopted by individuals. Integrated Cost, Usage, License, and Renewal Intelligence Disconnected data means disconnected decisions. Organizations need a single view tied to real usage and value. Torii brings this data together—so Finance, IT, and Procurement can align on what's being used, what's worth keeping, and where to cut. Automation That Scales Across Functions One-off alerts and rigid workflows aren't enough. Teams need automation that adapts to how they work. Torii supports deep, no-code automation for onboarding, offboarding, license cleanup, compliance workflows, and renewals—used by IT, Procurement, and Security. Built for Every Stakeholder SaaS is no longer just IT's problem, it's cross-functional. Torii was built for IT, Finance, Procurement, Security, and Leadership—offering role-based access, shared data, and coordinated workflows in one platform. What This Means for You IT gets full visibility into app adoption, license usage, and access gaps—so they can take action before waste or risk grows. Procurement gets accurate usage and contract data in one view—so they can reduce shelfware and negotiate with confidence. Finance gets previously siloed budget and usage data in one view—so they can cut waste, forecast accurately, and prove ROI. Security gets visibility into unmanaged and high-risk tools—so they can proactively close gaps in ownership, compliance, and control. Leadership gets a unified, reliable view of software value and risk—so they can make strategic decisions grounded in facts, not estimates. With Torii, you don't need to rip and replace your stack. Torii connects to the systems you already use, centralizes your SaaS data, and lets every team make faster, smarter decisions. Smarter AI That Drives Outcomes We believe the Gartner Magic Quadrant emphasized that action—not just insight—is the new standard. Torii's embedded AI assistant, Eko, sets that bar—giving every team proactive answers and next steps no other platform can match. Instead of static dashboards, teams ask direct questions—and get real answers: "Where are we overspending?" → 63 unused licenses. Reclaiming them saves $42K this quarter. "Which apps pose the highest security risk?" → 9 apps lack ownership, fail compliance checks, or bypass SSO. Reviewing them now helps reduce exposure and meet audit requirements. Later this year, Eko Act will take this further—empowering teams to reclaim licenses, assign owners, and launch workflows directly from chat. Eko isn't AI for AI's sake—it's real-time guidance that turns insight into action, right inside the platform. Read the Full Report Want to see which vendors were recognized?

Omdia Forecasts Flat TV Shipments in 2025, but Mini LED Poised for Explosive Growth at 82.9%
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun 26, 2025-- Omdia's latest 1Q25 TV Sets Forecast reveals TV shipments are expected to remain nearly flat in 2025, totaling 208.7 million units (-0.1% year-on-year). Despite overall modest demand, Mini LED, and extra-large screen sizes are set to grow quickly, driven by retailers and brands focusing on premium features. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: Year-on-Year (YoY) unit growth of TV shipments in 2024 and 2025 Omdia's latest TV sets analysis highlights two key regions expected to buck the global trend and deliver shipment growth in 2025: 'Although overall shipment growth remains flat, key technologies and larger screen sizes will see significantly higher growth rates. These differentiators will be crucial for both emerging Chinese brands and established players aiming to capture and defend market share,' explains Hisakazu Torii, Chief Analyst, TV Sets, Omdia. Top 5 positive YoY unit growth of TV technology, size, and features for 2025: Despite headwinds from US tariffs, North American shipments are expected to grow due to sufficient inventory built up since last year and aggressive pricing strategies from Chinese and channel brands. Overall shipments in North America will reach 49.9 million units in 2025, a 1.6% year-on-year unit growth. Consumers in this region benefit from a broad range of screen technologies, features, and brands offered at competitive prices. This diversity ensures a stable, accessible market environment, though it could become vulnerable if inventory tightens or prices rise significantly during the year. In China, shipments will reach 38.3 million units in 2025, a YoY growth rate of 3.2%, thanks to consumer electronics (CE) subsidies launched in August last year. While demand for larger screens (75-inch and above) continues to surge at 24.2% YoY, shipments for smaller screens (65-inch and below) are expected to decline 6.0% YoY. Strategic demand pull-in to drive inventory adjustments in Latin America TV shipments in Latin America experienced significant growth starting 4Q24 (15.2% YoY) and continuing into 1Q25 (9.2% YoY), prior to the announcement of US tariffs. The region had already enjoyed positive shipment momentum in the previous two years (2023-2024), supported by favorable currencies, stable inflation rates, strong economies, and lower unemployment rates. 'The recent spike in shipments, however, reflects growing concerns regarding potential negative impact of US tariffs. Retailers and brands have strategically accelerated shipments into the Latin America aiming to secure inventory earlier and at lower cost, particularly with the FIFA World Cup 2026 approaching next year,' said Torii. In the other regions (excluding North America, China and Latin America), shipments are expected to decline by -1.2% YoY in 2025. These markets lack strong promotional factors (such as major sporting events), face less aggressive pricing strategies, and continue to deal with inflation and currency volatility, and increased costs.
