Power BI Dashboard Does not refresh in Big TV

Just deployed Power BI dashboard on Big Screen 60"

Even though data refresh every half an hour, yet charts and graphs do not reflect this refresh.

They stay the same showing same information, till I reload or refresh the browser manually.

Any solution for this problem?

Are you sure you are showing a dashboard and not the report itself? Tiles in a dashboard will refresh automatically after data refresh, while reports will not. With refreshes every 30 minutes, this must be premium capacity, right? Check is query caching turned off. Also why you added powerbi-embedded tag? Is this dashboard embedded in your app, or you are showing it from powerbi.com directly? – Andrey Nikolov
Also, make sure you haven't pinned the whole report to the dashboard. Dashboard will refresh automatically for individual visuals only – Gigga

The data is refreshing on the back end per the schedule you've set. It doesnt automatically update the report after you've viewed it. You need to automate the page refresh. So you need to use another mechanism to force the page you are showing to refresh on some schedule to see the up dated data that was updated on the backend.

Here are some techniques you could utilize on the page you are displaying the powerbi dashboard from so that it refreshes every 30 minutes

HTML approach 

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="1800; URL=http://www.yourdomain.com/yoursite.html">

JavaScript approach

setTimeout(function(){
   window.location.reload(1);
}, 1800000);
