In effect, this unmatched
magnum opus has been

in the Kannada film history.
Here are the highlights of this
movie.

Om is the story of a priest’s
son who, after a failed love
affair, takes to crime and
becomes a gangster. This
movie pioneered the gangster
theme in Kannada films.

Shivaraj Kumar has lived the
role of Satya, playing an
important part in giving the
movie its cult status. Ram
Gopal Varma’s 1998
blockbuster ‘Satya’ has
similarities with ‘Om’.
2. The Direction

This is the third directorial
venture of Real Star Upendra,
whose first two movies were
smash hits. Upendra used
the symbol of ॐ as the name
of the movie. His trademark
techniques of reverse
screenplay, narrating the
story in third person and
flashbacks within flashbacks
are also employed in this
movie, which forced
audience watch it multiple
times to understand it.
3. Music
Kannada audiences still go
gaga over the background
music and songs composed
by music director
Hamsalekha. Of the five
songs, two songs sung by
veteran actor late Dr.
Rajkumar, ‘Om Brahmananda
Omkara’ and ‘O Gulabiye’
are ever-fresh, while the
other three are sung by
Mano, which are equally
popular.
4. Casting of real gangsters

Upendra brought in real life
gangsters from Bangalore
underworld to feature in the
movie. Some of the notorious
gangsters of 1990s took bail
and came out of jail to act in
the movie, which created
controversy and helped in
promoting the movie.
5. Record satellite sale

Produced under Dr.
Rajkumar’s home banner, the
movie satellite rights were
kept unsold for twenty years.
According to a news report, it
was sold recently for Rs.8
crores amidst heavy
competition between TV
channel
The latest release is coming
on 12 March with Digital
intermediate (DI) and DTS
sound technology. It will be
releasing in more than 100
theatres across Karnataka.
