Hema Malini, Shreyas Talpade Praise Hanuman Ansh, Call Its Success a Miracle

Veteran actor and BJP MP Hema Malini and actor Shreyas Talpade have praised Hanuman Ansh, crediting the film's strong public response to its connection with viewers. Their comments come as the spiritual drama continues to gather support from celebrities and audiences after its release in India on August 7.

While Hema Malini described the film's success as a blessing from Lord Hanuman and congratulated producer Anupriya Nagar for backing the project despite having no prior experience in filmmaking, Talpade called the film's box-office run a 'miracle'.

Support from Celebrities

Hanuman Ansh has also received support from other film personalities. Preity Zinta shared her reaction on social media after watching the film in a theatre, posting 'Sita Ram' and 'Wow' alongside a still from the movie, and later urging her followers to watch it on the big screen with the message, 'Don't miss it, folks.'

Earlier, Varun Dhawan said he watched the film in theatres with his mother and recommended it to his fans. He said, 'Please go to the theatre and watch Hanuman Ansh. I just went with my mom, and it was an amazing experience. Take your parents, go with your friends. I highly recommend this film to everyone.'

Speaking about its spiritual effect, he added, 'No one had told me to make this video, nor had anyone called me; I just wanted to do this. I have had a connection with Lord Hanuman since childhood, but this is something else.'

Box-Office Performance

Released as a relatively quiet title, the devotional drama gathered momentum through strong word-of-mouth and rising public demand. The film has earned over Rs 170 crore in India. Shobhinaw Satyaa plays Neem Karoli Baba, while Vihaan Shedge plays Maharaj Ji in another stage of the story. The cast also includes Chandan Anand, Purnima Tiwari, Anil K Rastogi and Gulshan Pandey. The film has a runtime of 2 hours and 30 minutes and carries a U certificate.
