Can you tell me where is this code located exactly and to that to change it. Because I have similar problem, on hover over image I get name of the cached image for example fksdghsagi4685461961.png instead of title.

The (default) code should look like this:
github.com/getk2/k2/blob/master/components/com_k2/templates/default/item.php#L203

Remember to use overrides:
getk2.org/documentation/tutorials/174-templating-with-k2-and-the-concepts-of-sub-templates

Hello Krikor I have changed the code but still it is displaying image real name on hover with mouse instead or article name. I am making mistake somewhere.
Here is override I have created for this in my template:

<?php if($this->item->params->get('itemImage') && !empty($this->item->image)): ?>
	<!-- Item Image -->
		<div class="itemImageBlock">
			<span class="itemImage">
				<img src="<?php echo $this->item->image; ?>" alt="<?php if(!empty($this->item->title)) echo K2HelperUtilities::cleanHtml($this->item->title); else echo K2HelperUtilities::cleanHtml($this->item->title); ?>" style="width:<?php echo $this->item->imageWidth; ?>px; height:auto;" />
			</span>

			<?php if($this->item->params->get('itemImageMainCaption') && !empty($this->item->title)): ?>
			<!-- Image caption -->
			<span class="itemImageCaption"><?php echo $this->item->title; ?></span>
			<?php endif; ?>

			<?php if($this->item->params->get('itemImageMainCredits') && !empty($this->item->image_credits)): ?>
			<!-- Image credits -->
			<span class="itemImageCredits"><?php echo $this->item->image_credits; ?></span>
			<?php endif; ?>

			<div class="clr"></div>
		</div>
	<?php endif; ?>

Where am I making mistake?

Thank you again!

This is not the alt tag, this is the title tag.
Replace the contents of the title tags on the <img> element with the ones of the alt tag.

eg:
... title="<?php if(!empty($this->item->title)) echo K2HelperUtilities::cleanHtml($this->item->title); else echo K2HelperUtilities::cleanHtml($this->item->title); ?>" />
