The Kannada film industry is eagerly waiting for the release of MARK, the much‑talked‑about action thriller starring superstar Kichcha Sudeep. Directed by Vijay Karthikeyan, the movie is scheduled to hit theatres on December 25, 2025, making it one of the biggest festive releases of the year. With fans already excited about its trailer and songs, many are now curious about when and where they can watch the film on OTT platforms after its theatrical run.
OTT Platform Details
According to industry reports, the digital streaming rights of MARK have been acquired by JioHotstar. This means that after completing its theatrical journey, the film will be available for streaming on JioHotstar, giving fans across India easy access to enjoy the movie from home. Alongside this, the satellite broadcast rights have reportedly been finalized with a major Kannada television channel, ensuring that the film will also reach audiences who prefer watching on TV.
Why OTT Release Matters
OTT platforms have become a crucial part of film distribution today. They allow movies to reach a wider audience beyond theatres, especially those who may not have access to cinema halls or prefer watching at home. For a film like MARK, which is expected to perform strongly at the box office, the OTT release will help sustain its popularity and bring in new viewers even weeks after its theatrical run.
Film Highlights
MARK features Kichcha Sudeep in the role of Ajay Markandaya, a suspended police officer who fights against criminals and corruption. The film also stars Nishvika Naidu, Naveen Chandra, and Guru Somasundaram, adding depth to the cast. With Satya Hegde’s cinematography and Arjun Janya’s music, the movie promises a complete cinematic experience filled with action, drama, and stylish visuals.
Expected Timeline
While the exact OTT release date has not been officially announced, films typically arrive on streaming platforms four to six weeks after their theatrical release. Given MARK’s Christmas release, fans can expect it to be available on JioHotstar sometime in late January or early February 2026, depending on box office performance and distribution strategy.
With its theatrical release set for December 25 and OTT rights secured by JioHotstar, MARK is positioned to entertain audiences both in cinemas and at home. The combination of star power, festive timing, and digital reach ensures that this film will be one of the most talked‑about Kannada releases of 2025.
