In Hubli, fans and stars gathered for the grand pre-release event of Mark, the next from Kichcha Sudeep. The event featured electrifying live performances of the film’s songs and high-energy dance routines. Celebrity Cricket League players paid tribute to captain of the Karnataka Bulldozers, Sudeep, through their performances, adding a vibrant touch to the evening. The Mark cast, including Naveen Chandra, Gopalakrishna Deshpande, Pratap Narayan, Archana Kottige, Roshini Prakash, Maltesh, Ashwin Hasan, and Guru Somsundar, joined Sudeep on stage.

Speaking to the crowd, Sudeep said, “After performing here in 2003, returning to Hubli feels special. There is a reason I chose this city for the event. Words spoken from this stage travel across Karnataka and reach where they need to. The love and support we have received here is unforgettable. I thank all my friends, the sea of fans, and my family for being here.”

He then issued a challenge that left the audience spellbound. “I promised on July 5 that I would knock again on December 25. And we are knocking hard. Outside, a group is preparing for battle. From this stage, I say we are ready for war because we stand by our word."
