India, Nov. 13 -- When Kannada superstar Kiccha Sudeep announced in July this year that his next, which was later titled Mark, would be ready in time for Christmas, not many took him seriously. He had not even gone on floors with the film at the time. With the actor also juggling Bigg Boss Kannada hosting duties alongside, it was thought unlikely that he and his team would be able to pull it off. This is also why composer Arjun Janya's debut directorial was announced as a Christmas release. Arjun, who considers Sudeep his mentor in the industry would not prep for a box office clash if he seriously believed that Mark would be ready in time for the last festival of the year.
