Then, I sold the rights to somebody because I didn't want to and I couldn't think of anybody else. And so that was a dream that didn't come through," Kamal recalled. Eventually, Amrish Puri played the father to Anil Kapoor in "Virasat", the 1997 Hindi remake of "Thevar Magan". Kamal said he used to come to Mumbai to wish the late star on his birthday on December 11. "I'm a great fan and a student of Yusuf saab. I don't know how many people know because it was a secret fact. I used to come here whenever I could on December 11 on his birthday and kneel before him to kiss his hand," he added.

Election 2019: BJP Candidate list from Andhra Pradesh

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Panera Bread will allow customers to link their handprints to loyalty accounts, the company announced. </li><li>The technology comes courtesy of Amazon, which has been in hot water over hand-scanning. </li></ul>Amazon's controversial palm-scanning technology is coming to Panera Bread, as the fast-food chain plans to offer loyalty accounts linked to customers' handprints. <a href="https://www.panerabread.com/en-us/press/press-room/panera-continues-loyalty-innovation-with-amazon-one.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Panera announced</a> its rollout of Amazon One — technology developed by the e-commerce giant that identifies customers using their palms — in the coming months. The restaurant already has deployed the technology at some locations in its headquarter city of St. Louis. It allows Panera employees to greet customers by name and suggest menu items based on their preferences, a company press release said Wednesday. More than 52 million people are in the loyalty program, which allows them to order online.The goal is "frictionless, personalized, and convenient service" for loyal customers, said CEO Niren Chaudhary.Amazon's hand-scanning technology at the company's <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/amazon-pauses-construction-25-billion-headquarters-2023-3">Amazon Go stores</a> allows customers to enter, shop, and exit a store without checking out with a cashier. Go customers have the option of linking their palm print to their Amazon accounts, or using a credit card or app. Now, Panera will be able to use customers' palms to identify their loyalty membership accounts as well. The move is "a natural extension" of the tech-forward tactics, Chaudhary said in the press release. Panera already offers customers self-ordering kiosks, and an ordering and rewards app."With one of the largest and most successful loyalty programs in the country, Panera wanted to make it even easier for its guests to access their rewards and have a more customized café experience," said Dilip Kumar, vice president of Amazon Web Services. But Amazon Go's palm-scanning tech hasn't been without hiccups. <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/amazon-stores-collect-data-customer-lawsuit-argues-2023-3">In an ongoing lawsuit in New York City</a>, the company is accused of failing to comply with a city law to disclose tracking and recording biometric data. As a result, Amazon placed signs outside its Go stores in New York — where Panera has six locations — informing customers that biometric data is taken if they use the palm scanner. The use of Amazon One technology will be optional at Panera Bread, the company stressed, and private data obtained through the new technology will be protected by security controls.

It's since expanded to nearly 60 Amazon Go convenience stores, Whole Foods, and other Amazon retail stores, and the e-commerce giant plans to expand its use to things like entering stadiums and badging into work, <a href="https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/innovation-at-amazon/introducing-amazon-one-a-new-innovation-to-make-everyday-activities-effortless">according to</a> Dilip Kumar, vice president of Amazon's physical retail and technology."Just hover to enter, identify, and pay. Simply by being you," its website states.The senators also voiced concerns over <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/biden-big-tech-executive-order-mergers-data-privacy-net-neutrality-2021-7">data security.</a>Unlike Apple's Face ID and Touch ID or Samsung Pass, which store biometric information on a user's device, Amazon One uploads it to the cloud, potentially exposing that information to security risks.<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/amazon-eu-fine-data-privacy-gdpr-luxembourg-european-union-2021-7">Amazon has faced scrutiny</a> over user privacy in the past, grappling several lawsuits and class-actions that allege the company violated biometric privacy laws by sharing voice data with third-parties. Users can opt to delete their biometric data, which is encrypted and stored in the cloud, according to the Amazon One FAQ page. Amazon declined to comment.The company began offering a $10 credit for new users who enroll their palm prints in the program - a move as privacy advocates decried it as a cheap tactic to incentivize people to hand over sensitive personal data, as <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2021/08/02/amazon-credit-palm-biometrics/">reported</a> by TechCrunch.Sens. Klobuchar, Ossof, and Cassidy additionally said they worried that Amazon might use the biometric data to "further cement its competitive power and suppress competition across various markets."Amazon, as well as other Big Tech companies like Google, Facebook, and Apple, have been under fire over antitrust concerns by the government. Sen. Klobuchar has especially been a leading critic of Big Tech, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/amy-klobuchar-antitrust-bill-apple-amazon-google-facebook-fines-2021-2">introducing</a> an antitrust bill in February that, if passed, could fine the companies up to 15% of their annual revenue.

Amazon wants your palm prints. But lawmakers are asking why.

While India Today predicted a clear win for YSR-C, a few others believed they will remain head to head. Some even foretold a fractured verdict in the state, as Reddy banked on his late father Y S Rajasekhar Reddy’s legacy to win votes this election. BJP, fielded its own candidates this time, with no partner; was expected to get only one or two seats in this state. Andhra Pradesh went for polling for all its 25 Lok Sabha seats during 2019 general elections and the results are hotly pursued now. The major contenders in the state are the four parties including TDP, YSR Congress, INC and BJP. All these four major political players in the state have adopted their best winning strategies to bag as many seats as possible to send maximum number of representatives to the Lok Sabha. Who the 2019 election results will favor is a question triggering curiosities all over. Kambhampati Hari Babu of Bharatiya Janata Party won from the Visakhapatnam constituency during 2014 general elections. In this constituency, the BJP has now fielded D Purandeshwari. She has waged a tough war with the candidates of other major parties including Ramana Kumari Pedada of Congress, MVV Satyanarayana of YSR Congress and MV Sribharat of the TDP. Again a tough game is seen in the Vijayawada constituency where the BJP has fielded Dilip Kumar Kilaru, Congress has nominated Naraharasetti Narsimha Rao, TDP has nominated Kesineni Srinivas alias Nani and the YSR Congress had sent Potluri Vara Prasad to fight with them. All over the state, the results could bring surprising turns and twists.

Total Recall: YSR is back in Andhra wins 21 seats, routs Naidu

<div class="KonaFilter image-container float_right"><div class="image on-image">REUTERS/Gus Ruelas </div></div>Since the late '90s, a series of lucky executives at <keyword id="18635" type="CITY" weightage="60" keywordseo="Amazon">Amazon</keyword> have gotten an unbelievable opportunity to advance their careers. One person at Amazon always has a coveted job with nearly unlimited access to CEO <keyword id="191583" type="PERSON" weightage="60" keywordseo="Jeff-Bezos">Jeff Bezos</keyword>, according to <a href="http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2013-10-17/jeff-bezos-s-league-of-shadows#p1">Bloomberg Businessweek's Brad Stone. </a>
The job is officially called the technical assistant or advisor, and is unofficially known as Bezos' "shadow." They follow, travel, and go to meetings with Bezos, and frequently meet at the end of workdays.
The role means Bezos gets to know high-potential executives better than he otherwise might and gets a much-needed source of support and a second opinion. The shadows get an extraordinary <keyword id="6355605" type="PERSON" weightage="60" keywordseo="mentor">mentor</keyword>. Since 2003, when the position became more formalized, a series of Amazon executives have served one- to two-year terms. 
The idea came to Bezos from venture capitalist John Doerr, <a href="http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2013-10-17/jeff-bezos-s-league-of-shadows#p1">according to Stone</a>, after Doerr saw it at Intel. One of legendary Intel CEO Andy Grove's technical assistants was Paul Otellini, who went on to become CEO himself. 
It would be valuable for any employee of a major company to get such unfettered access to their CEO. But Bezos is unique in his way of thinking, approach to <keyword id="34454" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="60" keywordseo="leadership">leadership</keyword>, and role at his company. In terms of a business education, a two-year term at this job seriously beats an MBA.
But for all of the advantages, the experience has to be intense. Bezos is able to send employees into a frenzy simply by <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/amazon-customer-service-and-jeff-bezos-emails-2013-10">sending a one character email</a>. He's known for the occasional <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/things-amazons-jeff-bezos-tells-employees-when-he-gets-angry-2013-10">sarcastic, biting explosion</a> when he hears something he doesn't like. Shadowing him means being a witness to all of that and the frequent subject of Bezos' incredibly high expectations. 
Still, those who have held the job have come out better for it. 
"It was honest to God one of the most extraordinary things a young person can do," former shadow Stig Leschly told Stone.
After finishing his time as Bezos' shadow, Andy Jassy was put in charge of Amazon Web Services, the company's cloud division. He grew it into a hugely profitable juggernaut.
Given that <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/amazons-brutal-promotion-system-2013-10">promotions at Amazon</a> require the consent and advocacy of your boss, having the CEO make your case probably doesn't hurt. 
Bezos isn't going anywhere anytime soon, but keep an eye on this list of former and current shadows, <a href="http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2013-10-17/jeff-bezos-s-league-of-shadows#p1">assembled by Stone:</a>
