== Plot ==
== Plot ==
Venkata Krishna "Krissh" Gubbi is a software engineer who is irritated by his parents' efforts to arrange his marriage right away, preferring to slow down and find love on his own. He messages a woman, "Purple Priya", on Facebook, and after some mishaps meets up with her and they agree to get hitched. However, his wry but dim-witted friend Nani, afraid that Gubbi will abandon him, sabotages their relationship by going to her parents house in his place and rejecting her. Gubbi learns of this and manages to patch things up, but then Priya is kidnapped by Robin Hood, a don who Gubbi and Nani had run into before. Robin Hood agrees to let Priya go if he robs an ATM van, which turns out to be surprisingly easy; then, he gives him a harder task: kidnapping the daughter of another don, Venkat Reddy, across the state border in Andhra Pradesh, so that Robin Hood can marry her as they are in love.
Software Engineer - Venkatakrishna Gubbi meets Purple Priya, and falls head over heels for her. But thats only the Beginning of his problems. All hell breaks loose once Gubbi finds himself on the wrong side of the Villainous Mr. Robinhood and Venkat Reddy, and to make things worse, Priya is Kidnapped!

What Follows is a series of misadventures, as Gubbi and his best Friend Nani try to escape the messy situation they are in. But can they?
Gubbi and Nani set out to find Halli, a kidnapping expert near the border, but almost get in trouble with the police for their ATM theft and accidentally insult Halli and his henchman Shradda when they find him. Nevertheless, Halli agrees to help him, but warns of Venkat Reddy's extreme power and violent tactics, and sends Gubbi on a test run, where he gets distracted and is caught but manages to run away. Gubbi is put up to training by Halli, and then manages to make it inside the compound without getting caught and pulling off the abduction. Gubbi and Nani drive back to Robin Hood's place, where they argue and Nani leaves as they wait for Robin Hood. However, it turns out that they kidnapped Venkat Reddy's wife instead of his daughter, to rectify the situation, Gubbi goes back and offers a "swap", but Venkat Reddy's rowdies take his whole family until he can find her. As it turns out that Nani accidentally switched cars as he left, Gubbi's difficulties are further compounded

Finally, Venkat Reddy finds Halli (who turns out to have been working in his security detail and is possibly a police plant), Robin Hood and Priya and ties everyone up. However, Nani sneaks in and unties them, After another gang attempts a fake deal with Venkat Reddy to swindle him, a fight breaks out. Climatically, Robin Hood and Gubbi rescue Venkat Reddy, winning his admiration, but Gubbi scares Priya with his use of guns and she breaks if off with him. Three months later, a depressed Gubbi and Nani attend Robin Hood's wedding. Spotting Priya, Gubbi makes up with her to Nani's frustration, but the ceremony is interrupted when the bride is kidnapped by a new don in Malaysia, "Little Mary". Robin Hood asks Gubbi to rescue her; he refuses, but turns around to see that Priya has been kidnapped again by Robin Hood's underlings, setting up a possible sequel named "Gubbi in Malaysia".

Sujay, as Raj's pessimistic philosopher friend, is a hoot. Each of the cast member seems to be carefully picked. Be it Girish Shivanna as the comical inspector or Pramod Shetty as the costume wearing don, they all shine. Though, at times the gags are dragged a bit. But, for those who like comedy, Gubbi Mele Brahmastra is going to be a treat, as it is reminiscent of some of the classics from the 80s and 90s."[7] [8][9]
