Fast Track-ing Into Star Wars
MUMBAI: As the world anticipates Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Titan is right on track with its youth label’s Fast Track launching a special range of watches.
Fastrack has offered an opportunity for kids and gift-givers to relive the classic story with the newly launched Star Wars themed Fastrack time-piece collection.
The brand has channeled all its force to create 10 unique time-pieces inspired by the classic Star Wars characters. Fans can show their allegiance by choosing their favorite heroes and villains. The visually stunning Star Wars Collection exhibits favorites from the light side such as Yoda, the Rebel Alliance like R2-D2, as well as the dark side icons like Darth Vader and the recognizable storm troopers of the Galactic Empire.
Fastrack marketing head explained, “Star Wars is a work of art which cuts across space and time, almost a rite of passage for most individuals. It’s a brand that all the generations hold close to their heart. More than being fans ourselves, we made the decision to create the Star Wars Collection because we feel that both brands resonate strongly with each other and with our audience.
The products are available across all Fastrack and select World of Titan stores.

Tech2.com returns with AI-driven revamp to guide India’s tech consumers
News18 relaunches legacy tech platform with AI tools and expanded coverage
NEW DELHI: Tech2, one of India’s earliest and most recognisable technology news destinations, is staging a comeback with a fresh, AI-first approach aimed at modern digital consumers.
Originally launched in 2003, Tech2 built a strong following among India’s tech enthusiasts by simplifying complex innovations and guiding purchase decisions. Now, under the umbrella of Network18’s News18, the platform is being reimagined for an era where artificial intelligence is reshaping how users consume and interact with information.
The revamped Tech2 blends AI-powered tools with editorial expertise, aiming to deliver smarter, faster, and more personalised content. While the technology stack gets a significant upgrade, the platform is consciously holding on to its familiar brand identity, creating continuity for long-time users while attracting a new generation.
At its core, the new Tech2 is positioning itself as a decision-making companion for consumers navigating an increasingly complex tech landscape. From gadgets and apps to broader digital ecosystems, the platform plans to widen its editorial scope to reflect how deeply technology now influences everyday life.
A key part of its growth strategy includes expanding into multiple Indian languages, signalling an intent to reach audiences beyond metro cities and tap into the next wave of digital adoption.
The relaunch also strengthens News18’s portfolio of specialised digital properties, which already includes platforms such as CricketNext for cricket coverage, Showsha for entertainment, and Local18 for regional reporting.
With its return, Tech2 is not just revisiting its legacy but attempting to redefine it. In a market flooded with information, the platform’s success will hinge on whether it can turn AI into a genuine utility for users rather than just a buzzword.
