Based on the life of Neem Karoli Baba, Hanuman Ansh began its theatrical journey with just 60 shows and an opening collection of Rs 9 lakh. However, positive word of mouth helped it emerge as one of the highest-grossing Hindi films of 2026.
Inspired by the life of the spiritual leader, Neem Karoli Baba, Hanuman Ansh will air on Sony LIV on November 27, followed by its television premiere on Sony MAX.
One notable omission from Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana is the episode in which Lord Rama liberates Ahilya at Rishi Gautama's ashram while travelling with Vishwamitra, long before his marriage to Sita.
Ramayana: Part 1 ends with two big reveals as Sunny Deol makes his debut as Hanuman in a post-credit scene, Raghav Juyal appears as Meghnath, and the makers set up the 2028 sequel.
Hanuman Ansh producers issued an official statement declaring Namrata Singh and Vishal Chaturvedi as the executive directors and that they alone will be authorised to direct public relations, marketing, awards and partnerships.
Hanuman Ansh's 21-year-old co-producer Anupriya Nagar invested all her life savings of Rs 55 lakh into the Neem Karoli Baba biopic, much to the initial dismay of her father.
