ABOUT BRAHMA

THE STORY
BEHIND THE LEGACY.

Brahma Entertainments LLP is a creative platform built on a single belief — that stories, talent and recognition can shape culture and create lasting impact.

WHO WE ARE

A home for storytellers, creators and changemakers.

Brahma Entertainments LLP was founded to bring together cinema, creativity and recognition under one vision. From short film competitions to awards that honour extraordinary individuals, every initiative is designed to discover talent, celebrate excellence and amplify stories that matter.

The Brahma ecosystem spans three flagship programmes — the Brahma International Short Film Festival, the Proud to Be a Bengalurean Short Film Festival and the Brahma Odyssey Awards — each a distinct journey toward the same destination: a lasting legacy of stories and the people who tell them. Together they form the Brahma Short Film Festival & Awards.

The Philosophy of the Brahma Award

Celebrating the Pinnacle of Creative Excellence

Creation is an art. Excellence is a legacy. True greatness is timeless.

Inspired by Chaturmukha Brahma, the primordial Creator and embodiment of knowledge, wisdom, and the arts, the Brahma Award represents the limitless possibilities of creation. His four faces symbolise infinite vision and universal knowledge.

Rooted in this philosophy, the award honours exceptional talent in cinema — individuals whose vision, originality, and craftsmanship transcend boundaries and leave a lasting mark on art and culture.

More than an accolade, it is a tribute to artistic integrity and enduring creative legacy, recognising those rare achievements that rise above the ordinary and inspire generations.

The Brahma Award celebrates not just creation, but the greatness that makes it timeless.
