The Friday to Sunday growth of HanuMan is around 300 percent, which is the first indication of the film having long legs at the box office. The Prasanth Varma film starring Teja Sajja grew on Saturday despite being a mass-appealing film and consolidated the same with another jump in collections on Sunday. The opening weekend of HanuMan stands in the range of Rs 11.75 crore, which is a fantabulous result for a feature film with “NO STAR DIRECTOR”, “NO SUPERSTAR”, “NO PROMOTIONS” and “NO HOLIDAYS”. The film has released with nominal ticket prices too and this is a move with distributor Anil Thadani often follows for all the South Films dubbed in Hindi.

Saturday: Rs 3.85 crore
Sunday: Rs 6.00 crore (Estimate)

HanuMan has the chance to do something magical in Hindi
The controlled pricing often pushes the content for sampling to a larger section of the audience, which leads to a faster spread of word of mouth. Given the upward trajectory of HanuMan over the weekend, it’s difficult to put a number towards the lifetime figure, but the early signs indicate a magical run at the box office. It’s the hold in collections on Monday which will tell us how far can the magic go, but the film has definitely been appreciated by audiences all across the board. The devotional factor, aided by the mood of the nation due to the Ram Mandir opening in the days to come could add to the conversations around HanuMan.The film is also another indication of content being the king in post pandemic world.
The weekend trend is better than the 2022 sleeper hit, Kantara, and if the film manages to trend at levels like the Rishab Shetty film, one could be surprised by the theatrical result of the film in Hindi. All the eyes are now on the Monday collections as we would get a clearer picture on the weekday hold of the film on Monday, but the weekend has consolidated the bare minimum guarantee of reaching a certain number in the long run.
