Delhi’s air pollution levels continue to rise, and smoke from farm fires in nearby states mixes harmfully with local pollution sources in the city, such as car exhaust, exacerbating concerns about health emergencies. At the same time, the air quality and pollution city tracking service from IQAir, a technical partner of the Swiss Climate Organization and the United Nations Environment Programme, shows that there are as many as three cities from India in the list of top ten cities.

The air quality index is the worst. The IQAir service listed Delhi with an average AQI of 556, ranking first, Kolkata ranked fourth, and Mumbai ranked sixth. Other cities with the worst AQI index include Lahore in Pakistan and Chengdu in China.

According to IQAir:

1, the following are the ten cities with the worst air quality indicators and pollution rankings. Delhi, India (AQI: 556)

2. Lahore, Pakistan (AQI: 354)

3. Sofia, Bulgaria (AQI: 178)

4. Kolkata, India (AQI: 177)

5. Zagreb, Croatia (AQI: 173)

6. Mumbai, India (AQI: 169)

7. Belgrade, Serbia (AQI: 165)

8. Chengdu, China (AQI: 165)

9. Skopje, North Macedonia (AQI: 164)

10. Krakow, Poland (AQI: 160)

It is worth noting that estimates from the Decision Support System (DSS) of the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM), which provide Delhi air quality forecasts and determine pollution components, said on Friday, Delhi has also received pollutants from other cities such as Jhajjar, Gurugram, Baghpat, Ghaziabad and Sonepat Micron), local vehicle emissions accounted for 25%, household emissions accounted for 7% of Delhi’s particulate level and industry, and its surrounding areas accounted for 9-10% of urban pollution.

SAFAR, the air quality monitoring station of the Earth Science Alliance, said that last Friday, residual fires accounted for at least 35% of air pollutants.

The report states that Game Changer has now crossed the ₹110 crore mark at the box office. It minted ₹5.55 crore on its first Wednesday, which is the lowest for the film so far. The film had seen a slight growth on its fifth day of release, with ₹10 crore net. The overall collections now stand at ₹112.26 crore.

Game Changer minted ₹51 crore on its opening day, and saw a dip in collections on its second day with ₹21.6 crore. Day three collections were at ₹15.9 crore whereas day four net was ₹7.65 crore. The film saw a sharp decline in its weekdays and is yet to recover. Game Changer is facing stiff competition from a number of releases, which includes Nandamuri Balakrisha’s Daaku Maharaj, Unni Mukundan’s Marco and Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2: The Rule.

More details

Amid box office concerns for the film, a pirated version of Game Changer was allegedly aired on a local TV channel and shown in buses. Screenshots of the same surfaced on X, which caught the attention of producer Sreenivas Kumar. He took to his X account to demand strict action on it.

A few days ago, the makers of the film had filed a complaint against individuals for allegedly leaking a pirated version of the film online. The complaint also states that before the film’s release, the producers and a few team members were threatened through social media and messaging platforms like WhatsApp, wherein the same alleged pirates demanded money from producers and threatened to leak the pirated version if their demands were not fulfilled.

Game Changer is directed by Shankar and stars Ram Charan, Kiara Advani, and SJ Suryah. The film has also been released in Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam.
