The devotional film 'Hanuman Ansh', produced on a modest ₹2 crore budget, has emerged as a box‑office hit, prompting director Vishal Chaturvedi to thank audiences and Baba Neem Karoli.
The Hindi‑language devotional drama 'Hanuman Ansh' was released this week with a production cost of roughly ₹2 crore. Despite the modest budget, the film quickly drew large crowds and posted strong occupancy rates across multiplexes and single‑screen theatres, classifying it as a surprise blockbuster.
Director Vishal Chaturvedi, speaking to media outlets, described the film's performance as nothing short of a miracle. He expressed gratitude to the viewing public for their enthusiasm and also paid homage to the spiritual figure Baba Neem Karoli, whose name he invoked during the interview.
Industry analysts note that the film's success underscores a growing appetite for mythological and devotional content among Indian audiences, especially when paired with effective word‑of‑mouth promotion. The producers have hinted at possible plans for a wider release in regional markets and a digital streaming debut later this year.
