secondly, the world cup was being offered free, and all across different forms. the performance of india has been far superior in this tournament, because the one all their matches, and the workup clashed with festival seasons, when it flashed with festivals in october and september months, advertisers were spending money on new consumers. people travelled a lot in terms of domestic, people book hotels. there is also the abelson overall consumption and it was in advertising spends. looking at the tournament, the advertising spend of been almost 2.5% of india's aspirins, so it boosted

nine years later, 2023 we'll sell over two million products this year, and we stocked in over 700 stores globally in 2a different countries. the most powerful thing a brand can do is have the right people wearing the brand. they're going to be seen by thousands, sometimes tens of thousands of people, depending on the level of the artist. having walking billboards as a brand is powerful. i like hood luxury. so hood meaning like proper streetwear aesthetic, but then like luxury things like more premium aesthetic. so i suppose it'sjust merging the two together and that's just kind of like my personality filtering through.

you can't please everyone in business. the brand is not going to be for everybody. when you get to a certain level, that's just what comes with the game and i'll keep going. i'll use negative comments as fuel to better myself better what we're doing here at hoodrich. and that's it for this edition of asia business report. thanks for watching. we would have more on argentine as election results and what is happening with open ai, thanks for watching. bbc news bringing you different stories from across the uk. locals say they live here for the countryside, the wildlife and the peace. but that could change as a new prison is set to be built here. kevin bowden has lived in gayatri for over 20 years.

my concern is when i get up in the mornings and open my curtains, i'm not going to see the fields behind me with the sheep and the wildlife. i'm just going to see a wall of prison. plans were first submitted by the ministry ofjustice for a new prison adjacent to the current prison over two years ago. it was refused permission by harborough district council. however, that refusal has now been overturned on appeal by communities secretary michael gove. i'm astounded at this decision. i think it's completely the wrong decision, and as one member of the public described it to me this morning. they see it as a slap in the face for democracy. it's always been the wrong place. these are country lanes, a country area where they're trying to facilitate this. a spokesman for the mo] said that the decision at gayatri is critical to delivering the 20,000 extra places we need to keep dangerous offenders off the streets, and it'll boost the local economy by creating hundreds of new jobs. protesters here say they'll fight on. they're calling for

a judicial review. for more stories from across the uk, head to the bbc news website.

bbc news bringing you different stories from across the uk. we're campaigning for free school meals. it's been proven that people that have school meals make more progress in english and maths. the school council at hill stone primary in birmingham is on a mission. all children in england get free school meals until they're seven, but from year three only a limited number are entitled year three and above. if you earn more than £7,400, then that figure hasn't changed for a long time. then you're not entitled to free school meals. so we've got parents on low incomes working two or three jobs to make ends meet, earning just over that amount of money, and then they have to pay for school meals as well.

in northern ireland, the income threshold is double at £14,000. and in scotland and wales, free school meals for all primary age children are being rolled out. in london, they currently get free meals too. if you feel a bit disappointed because if they have it, then that's not fair. the food foundation charity says the income threshold to qualify for free meals is too low. the children say they'll continue pushing for change for their health. for more stories from across the uk, head to the bbc news website. hello and welcome to sportsday. i'm olly foster. india and theirfans are silenced as australia become world champions for a sixth time
