Day 15 worldwide box office receipts for HanuMan: The Telugu movie, which is helmed by Prasanth Varma, has been performing incredibly well both domestically and internationally. On Saturday, Prasanth shared the movie’s global new numbers on X, which was formerly Twitter.
“Jai Shri Ram,” was written on a poster that Prasanth shared. ₹250 crore globally.” The post’s caption was: “Humbled and Amazed with this Nonchalant and Unanimous Response (folded hands emoji) #JaiHanuman.” Teja Sajja plays the lead role in the movie. Critics have praised the movie for its mythological take on the traditional good versus evil superhero tale.

The film has minted 99.85 crore [Telugu: 73.89 crore; Hindi: 24.5 crore; Tamil: 78 lakh; Kannada: 52 lakh; Malayalam: 16 lakh] in week one. In week two, the film earned 58.65 crore [Telugu: 41.07 crore; Hindi: 16 crore; Tamil: 64 lakh; Kannada: 79 lakh; Malayalam: 15 lakh]. So far the film has minted 158.5 crore [Telugu: 114.96 crore; Hindi: 40.5 crore; Tamil: 1.42 crore; Kannada: 1.31 lakh; Malayalam: 31 lakh].

Prasanth recently told news agency PTI, “I didn’t realise that it was all happening. It took me two-three days for all this to sink in because never in my life have I experienced so much success in terms of love from the audience. All my previous films were loved by the audience, but we never made a lot of money. I was that filmmaker who makes good cinema but doesn’t make a lot of money for the producers. But I think for the first time in my career, it has happened in such a way… I think it is easily 10 times more than any of my previous films.”

“I have always been fascinated by the stories from our mythology and culture. When I was researching HanuMan, I found more characters in our mythology that we have not really explored. The audiences are also not aware of them. So I thought, it’d be interesting if I could create new characters and narrate their greatness at the same time,” he had said.

The movie takes place in a made-up town named Anjanadri, where Teja’s character Hanumanthu, a small-time thief given Lord Hanuman’s abilities, lives. He battles Michael in order to save the people of Anjanadri; Michael longs to have a power that would enable him to be a powerful superhero. With Jai HanuMan and Adhira, Prasanth has already planned two follow-ups to the film, which serves as the start of a cinematic universe. HanuMan, which is produced by Primeshow Entertainment, also features Vinay Rai, Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, and Amritha Aiyer.
