HanuMan Premise

Hanumanthu (Teja Sajja) is an aimless youngster in Anjanadri, who is taken care of by his sister Anjamma (Varalaxmi). He loves Meenakshi (Amritha Aiyer) and when the goons try to hit back at Meenakshi for confronting them, Hanumanthu interferes. He is then thrown away into the water, where he finds Rudhiramani made with a drop of Lord Hanuma's blood. He then starts possessing supernatural powers. He uses them to save his people of Anjanadri and put an end to the quest of the antagonist.
