The excitement and enthusiasm factor just elevated this year with the commencement of the all new edition of Mr. India 2016 with its first city audition held in Bangalore. The audition witnessed over 100 participants who came from all over the city. The audition was held at Shangri-La Hotel, Bengaluru’s chic and glamorous venue SKY DECK which came on board as the Hospitality and Venue partner and its beautiful rooftop view of the skyline set the pace for the auditions.
The auditions were judged by an expert panel including the likes of Prasad Bidapa (Show Director), Rahul Rajashekharan Nair (Mr. India 2015 – 1 st runner up) and Noyonita Lodh (Yamaha Fascino Miss Diva 2014 – Miss Universe India).
