Box Office: Saiyaara Emerges a BLOCKBUSTER, Set for Strong Growth on Day Two
Saiyaara has emerged as a BLOCKBUSTER with the film set to register growth in business on its second day. Based on how morning shows have fared and how the current sales are moving, the Mohit Suri film is looking for a Rs. 25 crore plus day today. It could even move toward Rs. 30 crore but there will likely be capacity issues which will prevent it from doing so, that will get clear later in the day. Normally, you would wait for weekdays to make this call, but when the film is showing this kind of surge following an already outstanding first day, there is little doubt about it holding on weekdays. Still, the Monday hold will be confirming the verdict, but it's pretty much a lock at this point. Saiyaara started strongly in the morning, albeit a bit lower compared to yesterday, which is normal for a film that opened well. At the time of writing, it has caught up with its first day and now will start making gains from here on. The current sales today are going at a phenomenal pace, with online ticket booking portal BMS reporting double the sales today than it was yesterday. The film opened to Rs. 20.25 crore nett yesterday, which is an outstanding start for the film of this size. By EOD today, it will be close to Rs. 50 crore and the weekend is projected to be around Rs. 75 crore. This will set it up for a Rs. 150-175 crore plus final, which could go all the way to over Rs. 200 crore. The YRF film costs around Rs. 65 crore to produce and release, which on paper was a big gamble to put on a no-face cast. That, however, has paid big time as the film will recover all that from just the Indian theatrical share. The non-theatrical rights are linked to the box office and are expected to fetch a big sum as well. In all, the profits from the film will go over Rs. 100 crore, making it one of the most profitable films ever.

Toshiba Releases Automotive Photorelay with 1800V Output Withstand Voltage
KAWASAKI, Japan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jul 16, 2025-- Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ('Toshiba') has launched an automotive photorelay [1], ' TLX9165T,' in a 10pin SO16L-T package, that supports high voltage automotive batteries with an output withstand voltage of 1800V (min). Volume shipments start today. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: Toshiba: a new photorelay 'TLX9165T' with an output withstand voltage of 1800V (min) suited for high voltage automotive batteries. Improved charge times and longer cruising ranges are essential for wider adoption of electric vehicles, and both require more efficient operation of battery systems. Battery management systems (BMS) realize efficient system operation by monitoring the battery charge status, and the insulation between the battery and the vehicle body that is essential for the safe use of high-voltage batteries. BMS that must handle high voltages use electrically isolated photorelays. Energy storage systems (ESS), used to secure efficient operation of renewable energy, have also adopted a configuration similar to BMS; they handle the same high voltage as electric vehicles, and use electrically isolated photorelays. While 400V battery systems are the mainstream in electric vehicles, growing demand for longer cruising ranges and faster charging will hasten the shift to 800V systems. Photorelays used in those battery systems must have a withstand voltage approximately twice the system voltage, which is 1600V or more for an 800V system. Toshiba's new photorelay incorporates a newly developed high-voltage MOSFET with an output withstand voltage of 1800V(min), suitable for 800V systems. The 10-pin SO16L-T package adopts a resin with a Comparative Tracking Index (CTI) [2] of 600 or more, putting it in material group I [3] of the IEC 60664-1 [4] international standard, and the pin configuration ensures a creepage distance of 7.5mm or more [5] on the light receiver side. These features are compliant with IEC 60664-1, and deliver an operating voltage of 1500V. The pin pitch and pin configuration are the same as SO16L-T [6], allowing the common use of PCB pattern design. Toshiba will continue to develop photorelay products suitable for battery systems in automotive applications and energy storage systems in industrial equipment, contributing to the safe operation of equipment. Notes: [1] Photorelay: The primary (control) side and the secondary (switch) side are electrically isolated. Switches connected directly to the AC line and switches between equipment that differ in ground potential can be controlled through insulating barriers. [2] Comparative Tracking Index (CTI): IEC 60112 [7] defines CTI as the maximum possible voltage before droplets of ammonium chloride solution on the surface of the insulating material cause tracking, under the given test conditions. [3] Material group I: One of the classifications of molded materials in IEC 60664-1 [4] refers to materials with a Comparative Tracking Index (CTI) [2] of 600 and more. [4] IEC 60664-1: This standard specifies principles, requirements, and test methods for insulation coordination for systems up to AC 1000V or DC 1500V. [5] A creepage distance of 7.5mm or more: The required creepage distance for an operating voltage 1500V, material group I, pollution degree 2 (the degree of pollution of the operating environment where electrical equipment is used: pollutants are entirely non-conductive, but could potentially be rendered conductive by condensation.) [6] SO16L-T: The package used for Toshiba's TLX9160T and TLX9152M. [7] IEC 60112: An international standard that specifies testing methods for measuring the Comparative Tracking Index (CTI) of insulating materials. This standard is used to evaluate electrical breakdown (tracking) characteristics at the surface of solid insulating materials.

Fire mock drill conducted at TGICCC towers to test emergency preparedness
Hyderabad: With an objective to demonstrate the emergency preparedness protocol to respond to fire-related incidents, a comprehensive fire mock drill was conducted at the Telangana Integrated Command and Control Centre (TGiCCC) in Banjara Hills on Wednesday with the different departments. The building has state-of-the-art firefighting systems with advanced Building Management System (BMS) where automatic lift circuit braking systems, etc., are present. The exercise commenced with the activation of the fire alarm system and announcements over the Public Address System (PAS) across the floors in all Towers of the building. A simulated fire incident was reported on the 17th floor of Tower-A at around 3 pm. Accordingly, as per SOP, all lifts were deactivated, and all the 830 occupants of the TGiCCC Towers were immediately evacuated by designated Fire Marshals and Assistant Fire Marshals in each floor using the staircases and gathered at the designated Assembly Point at Ground Floor (TGiCCC lawns near the National Flag Post). During the mock drill, emergency departments like Fire Services, Police (L&O, Traffic), Revenue, HYDRAA, Medical & Health, TGSPDCL, HMWS&SB, responded promptly within a short notice and reached the spot. The exercise highlighted the importance of inter-agency coordination and rapid response in mitigating risks during emergencies. Following the successful evacuation, a de-briefing session was held at the Assembly Point. Sandeep Shandilya, Director, EAGLE (Anti Narcotic Bureau) emphasized the need for active participation of employees in self-evacuation during emergencies. VB Kamalasan Reddy, Director TGiCCC, appreciated the coordinated efforts of all participating emergency departments and staff of the building. The Director also briefed the Fire Marshals and Asst. Fire Marshals of each floor and directed them to use all fire safety equipment properly during emergencies. On the fire safety systems available in the buildings and advised all the staff members to be aware of these systems including importance of the refugee area, etc.,' he highlighted. A consolidated performance report of the mock drill, along with photographic and video documentation, has been compiled by the TGiCCC.
