His younger daughter lives in London with her husband. Mahalakshmi's four stepbrothers run the business with Chantibabu. Although their families live in different houses, they celebrate every occasion together.
Peddabbai, Mahalakshmi's eldest stepbrother, is envious about his brother-in-law's fame as his father lends Chantibabu ₹400 for his business establishment. Everyone confers the credit to Chantibabu. Peddabbai stays separate from the crowd and celebration. His wife Rajyalakshmi suggests marrying their daughter to Babu to reduce his pain. Peddabbai struggles on how to put this idea in front of his brother-in-law. Chantibabu learns of his intentions and decides to speak with Babu.
Kasi Annapurna, a free-spirited NRI from Australia arrives in India. Her father was a friend to Chantibabu and drops her at their home.

The family goes on a tour to Ooty, where Kasi expresses her thoughts to Babu, and they decide to break up. Before bidding goodbye, the two kiss. Peddabbai then leaves Ooty. This worries Chantibabu, so he calls everyone home to settle down the disturbances. Peddabbai bursts out on Chantibabu and asks to leave him and his family. Saddened, Chantibabu dies.

Production
[edit]Development
[edit]A source close to director Srikanth Addala told IANS in mid October 2014 that Addala would collaborate with Mahesh Babu for a film. Babu was impressed with Addala's new script and accepted to work with him after completing his existing commitments.[6] Addala worked on the film's script for more than a year.[3] The filming was expected to begin in May 2015 once Babu completes the shoot of Srimanthudu (2015).[7] The film was tentatively titled as Brahmotsavam and Addala said in late December 2014 that it would be a family drama adding that he would begin the casting process soon.[8]
Prasad V. Potluri accepted to bankroll the film under the banner PVP Cinema and wanted Babu to sign a three-film deal once he returns from his holiday in Dubai; this film being the first of the three and the remaining two in 2016.[9] On 8 January 2015, Addala told IANS that the film is almost confirmed and added that it is too early to share any more information.[10] Babu chose to act in this film disregard to the box office performance of Addala's previous film Mukunda (2014) and the film was expected to be a romantic entertainer.[11] Mickey J. Meyer was signed in on to compose the film's music.[12]
R. Rathnavelu was confirmed as the film's director of photography in early May 2015.[13] A special logo of the film's title featuring both Venkateswara's feet and a poorna kumbham in addition was released on 30 May 2015, a day before the official launch ceremony. The poster confirmed A. Sreekar Prasad and Thota Tharani as the film's editor and art director respectively.[14] An official statement from the makers confirmed that the film would be a bilingual shot simultaneously in Telugu and Tamil with the same title, marking Babu's first direct Tamil film.[15] After opining that the script has the potential to commercially succeed in both the languages without making much changes, Babu accepted the proposal of a Telugu-Tamil bilingual.[16] However, the plan was later on dropped.[17]
Casting
[edit]The makers tried to approach Rajinikanth for a brief yet key role as per the film's script.[18] They approached Rakul Preet Singh to play the female lead and she evinced interest to be a part of the film after the first round of discussions.[19] The film's team announced a casting call on 4 March 2015 for male and female characters; the requirements being an age group of 15 – 50 years and four photographs — two full size and close up photographs each.[20] A source from the film's unit reported Samantha Ruth Prabhu as one of the three female leads of the film in a statement to IANS on 15 April 2015, adding that Taapsee Pannu and Pranitha Subhash were called for a look test on the next day for the other two female lead roles.[21]
Of the three female lead roles, the first two reportedly would have full-length roles while the third would pale in comparison. Sources close to the film's unit later added that parallel, wide open discussions were on regarding the female lead selection where a section of the technicians believe that fresh faces should be cast opposite Babu while a few opted for the inclusion of established female leads. A 30-day audition was held at Hyderabad from mid-April 2015.[22] Babu, however, insisted that he would work with the actresses whose pairing with him received positive response from his fans.[3] Rakul Preet Singh's manager confirmed her inclusion as one of the three female leads days later to the media.[23] Though she denied signing the film during the promotions of Pandaga Chesko (2014),[24] an official statement confirmed her and Pranitha as the female leads.[25]
Jayasudha, Rao Ramesh and Tanikella Bharani were confirmed as a part of the film's supporting cast during the official launch ceremony.[2] The makers chose Sathyaraj to play Babu's father in the film. The film's unit told IANS that his presence in a major role would appeal to Tamil audience as the film was promoted as a Telugu-Tamil bilingual.[26] Mannara was rumoured to be approached by the makers for the second female lead role.[27] The film's executive producer Rajiv later revealed that Mannara was never approached for any character in the film. Rajiv added that her manager approached the makers for a role after the rumour began spreading and they rejected the proposal as no character suited her.[28]
Samantha replaced Rakul Preet Singh in mid June 2015 after the latter failed to adjust her call sheet due to scheduling conflicts.[29] Brahmaji's inclusion in the film's cast was confirmed in late June 2015.[30] Kajal Aggarwal told IANS on 28 June 2015 that she has been signed as one of the film's female leads.[31] At the same time, a press release confirmed the inclusion of Revathi and Naresh in the film's supporting cast.[32] The former of the two was reported to play Babu's mother in the film.[33] Also, Pranitha's character was reported to be a cameo appearance.[34] Tulasi joined the film's supporting cast in early July 2015,[35] and was chosen to play Aggarwal's mother in the film.[36] Chandini Chowdary was signed to make a cameo appearance in late September 2015.[37]
Pavani Gangireddy was signed to play Babu's sister in the film, which she called a "more than the typical token hero's sister".[38] In December 2015, Aggarwal revealed that she would be seen as a non-resident Indian in the film, adding that Brahmotsavam "is largely based on characters and not on leads" and that in the ensemble cast, each character is crucial in the film.[39] At the same time, PVP Cinema announced another casting call for real life families who are interested in participating in the film's shoot.[40] Saranya Ponvannan's inclusion in the film's cast was confirmed in mid-February 2016.[41] In mid-March 2016, Pranitha revealed that she would play a traditional Telugu girl-next-door character from a very protective family, very bubbly and taking only the good from any situation in life. The character would sport simple kurtis and patiala pants. She further revealed that it will be the typical bava-maradalu (cousins) connection found in a Telugu household.[42]
Filming
[edit]Principal photography commenced on 31 May 2015.[14] Babu allotted ninety days of call sheet without any lengthy breaks for the film which was expected to be wrapped up by December 2015.[43] The filming was delayed as Babu was busy promoting Srimanthudu and was expected to resume from late August 2015.[44] The regular filming commenced on 16 September 2015 with a song shot in a set erected by Tharani and a crew of 513 members at Ramoji Film City. Babu along with 21 other artists participated in the song's shoot.[45] Raju Sundaram choreographed the song on which ₹35 million was spent.[46] During the film's shoot Shah Rukh Khan, Varun Dhawan and Kriti Sanon, who were shooting for Dilwale (2015) in Hyderabad,[47] met Babu on the sets.[48] The first schedule was wrapped up on 30 September 2015.[49] The second schedule commenced on 5 October 2015 at Ramoji Film City in another set.[50][51]
After taking a two-week break, Babu joined the film's sets in Hyderabad in early November 2015. The makers wanted to complete most of the film's shoot in the fresh schedule commenced, as many actors and actresses were involved.[52] Filming continued at Ramoji Film City and Sathyaraj joined the film's sets in mid November 2015.[53] Few scenes on Babu and Aggarwal were filmed at Chilkur before wrapping up the schedule. A fresh schedule commenced from 28 November 2015 again at Ramoji Film City.[54] Upon its completion, filming continued at Ooty from 12 December 2015.[55] After filming scenes on Babu, Sathyaraj and Pranitha, a song was filmed on the principal cast in a set erected by Tharani. The schedule was wrapped up by the end of December 2015.[56]
Apart from the Ambattur industrial estate,[57] the film was shot in and round Chennai from 11 to 15 January 2016. By then, 60% of the film shooting was wrapped up.[58] The next schedule commenced from 19 January 2016 at Hyderabad.[59] Brahmotsavam was later filmed in Varanasi from 1 March 2016,[60] to 13 March 2016 before shifting to New Delhi and Udaipur for further shoot. The completion of the schedule meant wrapping up the principal photography, except for a song and few patchwork scenes which were planned to be filmed in Hyderabad.[61] The North India schedule was wrapped up on 14 March 2016.[62]
Themes
[edit]The film was considered to be a film glorifying Babu's onscreen image as a lovable boy and a responsible son.[22] During the film's official launch ceremony, Addala spoke about the film's theme by stating, "There would be beauty and happiness if some people are together. If there is a family with many members and if they celebrate every moment like a Utsavam, it is a Brahmotsavam", adding that the film's story would be on the lines of his previous directorial Seethamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu (2013) which starred Babu and Samantha along with Daggubati Venkatesh and Anjali.[2]
A source from the film's unit revealed that Brahmotsavam is all about family values and celebrating traditions. The bonding between the protagonist and his father along with the backdrop of his mother's family are the centerpiece of the film. The three female leads play an important role in the manner in which the protagonist realises the value of family when they go out on a journey exploring the family lineage and their place in the larger scheme of family links.[33]

A suit for damages of Rs. 25 lakhs was filed against the makers for copying the first 36 seconds of the Tulu song A...lele...yereg madme by Dr. Vamana Nandaavara found in the Deepanalike CD composed for Siri channel. The song was used in the movie in a sequence involving the lead actor who while accompanying his family on a tour dances to the tune of the hit Tulu song.[79][80]

Reception
[edit]Critical reception
[edit]Y. Sunita Chowdary of The Hindu gave it a 2.5 out of 5 and stated "Brahmotsavam is a confident, grand and sublime title for a noble plot that has been given a superficial treatment. Any joy that comes from the hero or this story is only ephemeral."[115] Critic Pranita Jonnalageda, writing for The Times of India gave 3 out of 5 stars stating "A montage of beautiful visuals (Rathnavelu's brilliance), lots of happy people, and frequent song and dance routines may be the perfect ingredients for a ‘brahmotsavam’, but the end result needn't necessarily be a good film."[116] Suresh Kavirayani of Deccan Chronicle gav the same rating, saying "Brahmotsavam is extremely good on paper, but the execution is not interesting."[117] Sify gave 2.75 out of 5 stating "Brahmotsavam has a grand theme but the director failed to narrate the movie in a convincing way as it is laced with tedious sequences and unending songs. Mahesh Babu's performance, rich production values and camera work works in this movie that has many issues."[118] 123Telugu gave a positive review stating that "Brahmotsavam is a film which has some decent moments going its way. This is not your regular dance and fight movie and has simple emotions. Mahesh Babu's performance, family emotions and huge star cast are basic assets. If you ignore the predictable nature of the storyline and some boring moments during the second half, this is one film which can be easily watched with your family this summer."[119]
India Today gave 2.5 out of 5 stars saying that "if Srikanth had chosen to stick with the genre 'family drama', the fate of Brahmotsavam would have been fine. But he chose to treat a feel-good road trip which has resulted in an absolutely chaotic screenplay".[120] Behindwoods gave 2.5 out of 5 calling it a "hackneyed family drama that rides on the shoulders of Mahesh Babu!"[121] Indiaglitz gave 3 out of 5 stating "A film that drives home the message that relationships must be celebrated."[122] Writing for News18, Karthik Keramalu gave 2.5 out of 5 stating that "The nib of Sreekanth's ‘Brahmotsavam’ states that we're all a family. The problem is not that the nib is broken; the nib goes all over the place and it doesn't know where to stop and how to draw a picture that doesn't mumble black and white philosophies."[123] Sreedhar Pillai, editor-in-chief for Firstpost stated "Brahmotsavam lacks a cohesive story and the way the film unfolds puts you into a deep slumber."[124]
Box office
[edit]India
[edit]Brahmotsavam collected more than ₹17 crore (US$2.0 million) at the worldwide box office on the opening day of its release,[125] with nearly ₹12.60 crore (US$1.5 million) crore from AP/Telangana box office.[126] On the second day, the film's collection dropped due to mixed word-of-mouth, collecting ₹3.15 crore (US$380,000).
