Hanuman Box Office Triumph: India and Global Collections
Prashanth Varma’s directorial Hanuman, starring Teja Sajja, was released in five languages: Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada.

However, the film’s strong audience reception led to an increase in screen count and robust collections in its second week. Hanuman also performed exceptionally well in the Hindi market despite minimal promotion.
With an approximate budget of ₹50 crore, Hanuman recorded an All India Net Collection of ₹139 crore across all languages in its first 11 days. The film’s 12th-day India Net Collection was ₹5 crore 51 lakh. On its 13th day, Hanuman made an All India Net Collection of ₹4 crore 50 lakh.
