Critical reception
Omkara received mixed to positive reviews upon release. Indiaglitz gave the film a very positive review by saying, "Omkara is a film made on a large canvas and can be compared to any non-Kannada film in terms of richness and presentation. The film has excellent production values, a big-star cast and all the commercial ingredients in right proportion to make it an attractive proposition for today's youngsters. Upendra excels in the role and his delivery of the lines is once again superb. His dialogues have been a major attraction in all his films and "Omkaara" is no exception."
Box office
Omkara collected all time record in first week all over Karnataka. Besides the theatre rent the film collected ₹1.75 crore from 200 shows a day in Karnataka with 55 prints. Omkara also had great opening in the Telugu and Tamil belts. But the film failed to live up to expectations and turned out to be just a moderate success at the box office.
