Critical reception edit

Brahma received positive reviews from the critics.

SandalwoodBoxOffice rated the film 3.75/5 and called it a brilliant entertainer with a good story, acting, and action.[10] Shyam Prasad of Bangalore Mirror rated the film 3/5 saying "Shekar Chandru is at the top of his game. Be it the battle scenes of the 15th century or the car chase in Malaysia, and he makes it look great. Brahma aspires to be a film taken seriously. But in the end, it is just a commercial film."[11] CineLoka rated the film 3.75/5 and called it a "Brilliant Entertainer".[12]

Sandesh of One India rated the film 3/5 and said "The director is successful in showing Upendra in five shades. As Upendra is also an admired director among Kannadigas and others, there is a lot of expectations from the movie. Well, to be more accurate, director R Chandru has not disappointed Upendra's fans in the film."[13] The Hans India rated the film 3/5 and said "The film spans four generations and costumes are definitely the talking point. If you are an Uppi fan, you will love this film which is a typical Upendra film which bears all the trademarks of the actor."[14]

GS Kumar of The Times of India rated the film 3.5/5 and wrote "With complete grip over the lively script laced with witty dialogues, the director has narrated the story excellently keeping the interest alive till the end. Upendra rightly fits into the role and has done a neat job. Though Praneetha's role is limited, her expressions are impressive. Rangayana Raghu is sure to make you laugh with a brilliant performance. Suresh Mangalore and Nazar are graceful. Shekhar Chandra's cinematography is lovely. Music by Gurukiran has nothing much to offer."[15]

Indiaglitz rated the film 7.5/10 saying, "Director R Chandru is scaling heights with big thoughts, big canvas and tremendous marketing skills to promote his product. He has made such a captivating, concern filled, chilling moments, close to heart at the end of the film 'Brahma' – surely a wholesome entertainer with ingredients well measured and transmitted on the silver screen."[16]

Box office edit

Brahma took a grand opening at the box office by collecting a whopping ₹ 36 million on its first day in a record breaking 276 screens and 1076 shows all over Karnataka.

Brahma had a spectacular opening weekend and collected a total of ₹ 97.5 million in its opening weekend which is the highest weekend collection for a Kannada movie.[17] The break-up, according to director R Chandru, is ₹ 36.5 million (Friday), ₹ 24 million (Saturday) and ₹ 37 million (Sunday). But collection gradually fades the following week, and It was declared a blockbuster by Box Office India as it ran for 50 days in 35 centres.[18]
