Plot
Upon his brother Shiva's encouragement, Sathyam operates a large automobile service center named "Janatha Garage". One day, a poor man, and a friend of Sathyam, loses his college-going daughter in a road accident. Sathyam and his allies learn that she was assaulted and killed by some goons. They ask Shiva's friend ASP Chandrashekar to help, but he's helpless as there is no proper evidence against the goons, who have an influential background. Sathyam takes justice into his own hands by killing the goons and making it look like an accident. Chandrashekar becomes aware and warns them against their actions, as he is worried about the consequences.
Janatha Garage became popular for those seeking justice for the underprivileged. Shiva marries and has a son Anand. One day Mukesh, a powerful and corrupt entrepreneur, visits and warns Sathyam to stop interfering in his business. A few days later, Shiva and his wife are ambushed and killed by Mukesh's men. Chandrashekar asks Sathyam to give up his work for Anand's sake. Instead, Sathyam gives him to Suresh, Anand's maternal uncle, so he will be safe.
As an adult, Anand is an environmental science graduate and activist in Mumbai, with the same fighting spirit as Sathyam, worrying Suresh. Anand and Suresh's daughter Bujji fall in love with each other, delighting her parents. Anand meets Anu, a fellow student, and scolds her for using firecrackers during Diwali, but the two become friends. Anand gets into a fight with a powerful local MLA over environmental rights. Fearing for his safety, Suresh sends him away to Hyderabad under the pretext of a university exchange program.
Sathyam is in an accident planned by Mukesh but recovers. As Sathyam was asked to limit stress, his allies turn people away. Sathyam asks his son, Raghava, to take over, but he refuses. Raghava marries Mukesh's daughter, Riya, without his family's approval. Anand fights off Raghava's thugs to stop an illegal mining site. Sathyam meets with Anand, not knowing they're related. Impressed by Anand, Sathyam asks him to take over the garage, and he agrees, becoming a part of the household and reviving Janatha Garage.
Chandrashekar, now the Commissioner of Police, tries to dissuade Anand from Janatha Garage but fails. He looks up Anand's family, and brings Suresh and his family to Sathyam's house, revealing Sathyam and Anand's connection. Afraid for Bujji's safety, Suresh tells Anand to choose either Bujji or Janatha Garage. Choosing his father's family, Anand and Bujji tearfully say goodbye, and she marries someone else. Raghava and Riya leave Sathyam's house because of their uncultured lifestyle creating a ruckus with Anand and the family. Anand reconnects with Anu, revealed to be Chandrashekar's daughter. Anu tells Anand that she's attracted to him, and they fall in love with each other.
Several bomb blasts occurred in Hyderabad. Bose, one of Sathyam's closest allies, loses his fiancée in the blasts. Soon after, Bose is found dead, with police believing he committed suicide. When the police chief tells Chandrashekar to close the bomb blast case, he asks Janatha Garage for help. Anand tracks down the goons responsible for the blast and, in the process, discovers Bose was killed by Raghava. Bose found out that Raghava and Mukesh planned the blasts to undermine Janatha Garage's government influence. Sathyam decides that even though Raghava is his son, he can't live. Janatha Garage finds Mukesh and Raghava's hideout, beating up their men to get to them. Anand kills Mukesh; cornered, Raghava pleads for mercy, but Sathyam arrives and kills Raghava without remorse. The film ends with Sathyam and his family celebrating Diwali when Anand goes to help someone. Anu is also there, now Anand's wife, and tells him that no firecrackers will be set off as he leaves.

Critical response
123Telugu gave 3.25/5 stars and wrote "Janatha Garage is not your regular popcorn entertainer which Tollywood churns out every week. It is a character-driven film where the onus is on serious emotions. The film will appeal to the general audience more than the fans."[88] Pranita Jonnalagedda of The Times of India gave 3/5 stars and wrote "This Janatha Garage might give everyone a hand in repairs but they need a wee bit of repair themselves for sure. But that’s no reason to miss the film."[89]
G. Ragesh of Onmanorama gave 2.5/5 stars and wrote "Koratala Siva, has tried to keep Janatha Garage as entertaining as possible for regular audience of Telugu films with a mix of popular ingredients. Siva deserves applause for finding Mohanlal fit to play his kind-hearted don with a salt and pepper beard."[90] Goutham V. S. of The Indian Express gave 2/5 stars and wrote "Despite a good message, Mohanlal and Jr NTR film is a predictable, run-of-the-mill drama that fails to offer anything new."[91] Srivatsan of India Today gave 1.5/5 stars and wrote "Janatha Garage is garnished with masala ingredients that only cater to entertainment-seeking audiences. Siva somehow readies the audience for a promising entertainer; however, ends up delivering a bland surreal revenge drama."[92]
Sangeetha Devi Dundoo of The Hindu wrote "NTR and Mohanlal’s performances save an otherwise tepid film."[93] Latha Srinivasan of Firstpost wrote "Janatha Garage may not be one of director Koratala Siva's best films but it is a film that has its moments where Mohanlal and NTR Jr shine."[94] Govind Vijaykumar of Deccan Chronicle wrote "Janatha Garage falls short of expectations. It is slower than Koratala Siva’s earlier films. The director has chosen a good subject, but he has failed to narrate the same properly. Except for a few interesting scenes, the film is predictable and outdated."[95]
Box office
Janatha Garage opened to 1,950 screens across the world on the day of its release (2 September 2016), and it collected ₹41 crore (US$4.9 million) on its opening day,[96] Thus registering the highest opening for a Telugu film in 2016, and is the second highest opening of all time, behind Baahubali: The Beginning.[7] The film also collected ₹50.58 crore (US$6.1 million), in its opening weekend, the second fastest Telugu movie to achieve 50-crore mark in the opening weekend.[97] On 9 September 2016, the film collected more than ₹100 crore (US$12 million),[98] within a week's time.[99][100] Janatha Garage collected ₹62 crores share at the end of 7 days run, becoming the second best opening week of Telugu cinema.
According to a report from International Business Times, the movie collected more than ₹125 crore (US$15 million) within 18 days, thus becoming the second Telugu film in the year, to cross this mark after Sarrainodu (2016).[101] At the end of its theatrical run, the film collected ₹135 crore (US$16 million), emerging as the highest grossing Telugu film of the year,[102] and also the third biggest grosser of Telugu cinema.[103][104]
