The film was declared a blockbuster at the box office.

Plot

The story takes place in a hamlet called Ramadurga. A tantrik terrorises the villagers bylooting their valuables, raping women and killing them. Jeeva comes to Ramadurga to discover his "Janma rahasya" (mystery of his birth). To his shock, he learns that he is the grandson of Bhajarangi who battled the tantrik and saved the villagers from his harassment. But the sly tantrik impeded Bhajarangi by creating a demon in the form of a baby and made Bhajarangi believe that he is his son. Jeeva eventually defeats the tantrik.

Critical reception

A critic from The Times of India scored the film at 4 out of 5 stars and says "Shivarajkumar has combined all his experiences to give a brilliant performance. Be it action, sentiment or romance, Shivanna is at his best. Aindrita Ray too is at her best throughout, especially in the climax. Music by Arjun Janya is apt for the story and quite remarkable. Lokesh shines as a villain. Jai Anand is simply superb in his camerawork". A critic from Sify.com wrote "Songs by Arjun Janya highlights the music and the picturisation of songs have been captured beautifully in the camera handled by Jai Anand. Harsha has definitely made his mark as a director and he is here to stay for a very long time". A critic from Deccan Chronicle wrote "Now, the grandson of Bhajarangi returns to his roots and fights the baddies. A must-watch for Shivarajkumar fans and all those who'd love to escape reality, at least for few hours. Arjun Janya's music is another treat in the movie". Shyam Prasad S from Bangalore Mirror wrote  "Arjun Janya wins in his compositions which are spaced out and do not interfere with the narrative. Bhajarangi is one of Shiva Rajkumar's best films in recent times".

Sequel

A sequel, named Bhajarangi 2, featuring Shiva Rajkumar and Karthika Bhavana in the lead, Harsha as director and produced by Jayanna and Bhogendra, was released on 29 October 2021.
