Hyderabad: JioStar has unveiled the first film from its high-voltage campaign for Season 12 of the Pro Kabaddi League, titled Ghus Kar Maarenge, featuring actor Rana Daggubati. The film is one of several adaptations under the campaign theme and comes ahead of the league’s official commencement on August 29, live and exclusive on JioHotstar and Star Sports Network.
Released in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu, the film opens with a tense standoff at the gates of a large home, where a group threatens Rana. With the snap of his fingers, he introduces traditional elements like red carpets and drums, confusing the goons. Rana then walks forward amidst the fanfare to confront them, while the group backs away, mirroring the controlled aggression seen in kabaddi.
His tone is confident yet restrained, concluding with the line:
“Ghuss ke marne ki baatein toh sab karte hai, but hum Telugu Titans wale karke dikhaate hai.”
(Everyone talks about going on the offensive and striking, but we Telugu Titans do it and show it.)
The campaign highlights the rejig in PKL’s format and rules designed to ensure results in every match and more competitiveness across the league, showcasing the intensity and aggression expected in Season 12.
Speaking about the association, Rana Daggubati said:
“Kabaddi is not just a sport, it’s a battle of will, power, and fearless spirit. The Pro Kabaddi League has redefined how we look at home-grown sports in India. There’s something electrifying about the raw aggression and courage that unfolds on the mat every single match. I’m proud to be associated with a league that celebrates true warriors and brings the thrill of India’s toughest sport to life.”
PKL Season 12 kicks off on August 29 with a southern derby, as Telugu Titans face Tamil Thalaivas in the season-opener.
