Area Sudoku (Daily Sudoku League #155)

Area Sudoku is a new Sudoku Variation similar to Figure Sudoku. The difference between Area Sudoku and Figure Sudoku is that in the case of Figure Sudoku, the same shape contains the same set of numbers. Shapes may be rotated or reflected. However, in the case of Area Sudoku, the marked area containing the same area contains the same set of numbers. In other words, marked cells that contain the same number of cells contain the same number. 
This puzzle I created for Twisted Classics Sudoku Mahabharat 2016 round. However, in the end, this puzzle was not selected to be part of this championship as we want to keep this test easy and simple. Adding one more new variation to the test may be complicated the things as this test already contained one new however simple Sudoku variation named Twin Givens Sudoku.
As I have mentioned in my previous post and now the on-wards name of the puzzle file posted on this blog will contain the timing to solve a particular puzzle by Prasanna Seshadri i.e. if one downloads the puzzle image from here and saves it with the default name, then that name will contain the time taken by him to solve that puzzle along with the puzzle name.
This Area Sudoku puzzle I am posting in The League of Extraordinary Ladies & Gentlemen as 155th Sudoku in this series. Can you solve this Sudoku puzzle?

Rules of Area Sudoku

Standard Classic Sudoku Rules apply. Additionally, all cages having the same area contain the same set of digits, possibly in different orders. In other words, all cages which have an equal number of cells will contain the same set of digits.
