HanuMan, Prasanth Varma's first installment of his PV Cinematic Universe (PVCU), created history. The fantasy action adventure movie featuring Teja Sajja as the protagonist Hanumanthu, is the highest-ever Telugu film to earn Rs 300 Crore at the box office worldwide, in the history of 92 years of Tollywood.

HanuMan was one of the films that hit the screens along with superstar Mahesh Babu's Guntur Kaaram on January 12. After its release, the movie wreaked havoc at the box office with rock-solid performance both in India and overseas earning heaps of appreciation and bags full of money.

HanuMan Premise

HanuMan is touted to be the first of its kind Indian superhero film in which the protagonist Hanumanthu will receive superpowers through Lord Hanuma's Rudhiramani. As the power-thirsty antagonist, Michael eyes his Rudhiramani to become a superhuman, his attempts are thwarted. He then wages a war to put an end to the atrocities that happen in his village called Anjanadri.

HanuMan OTT Release Delayed Due To THIS Reason

The movie's digital streaming rights were secured by Zee 5, which means the latest sensation of Sankranti will start streaming on the Zee 5 after the release date was announced. The official streaming date was at first believed to be as March 2. The movie, however, is still continuing its theatrical run even 50 days after the release.

Many film buffs and fans are waiting for the movie's digital streaming debut. But, here's a catch. Because the theatrical run is steadily bringing money for this fantasy drama, the makers and the OTT platform heads didn't announce the date which could affect the numbers.

HanuMan Cast

Teja Sajja will be seen in the protagonist's role Hanumanthu. Amritha Aiyer is his love interest Meenakshi, and Varalaxmi Sarathkumar is Hanumanthu's sister Anjamma. This first Telugu superhero film also boasts Vennela Kishore, Satya, Samuthirakani, Vinay Rai, Getup Srinu, Raj Deepak Shetty, Koushik Mahata, and Bhanu Prakash among others playing pivotal characters.
