The making, performances, and technical values shine, but the narrative stumbles due to uneven pacing and a script that needed more clarity and tightening. Still, for fans of Sudeep and lovers of stylised action thrillers, ‘Mark’ offers enough highs to make it a watchable, star-driven experience.”DISCLAIMER: The box office numbers in this article are compiled from our proprietary sources and diverse public data.
