Even as Teja Sajja’s Hanu-Man (2023) completed 100 days of theatrical run at the Telugu box office, there are huge expectations for its sequel — Jai Hanuman.
The sequel, too, is being helmed by director Prasanth Varma.
On the occasion of Hanuman Jayanthi on Tuesday, 23 April, the filmmaker unveiled a striking poster of Jai Hanuman.
Prasanth Varma also revealed his plans for the film to be released in IMAX 3D format.
Jai Hanuman poster features Lord Hanuman standing prominently in front of a fiery dragon. This unique concept of incorporating a dragon is typically associated with Chinese cinema.

Now, netizens are wondering what a dragon has to do with Indian cinema, that too a mythological film on Lord Hanuman.
Some social media users commented that Indian cinema is embracing a style of storytelling.
The makers look committed to delivering a unique experience for audiences this time.
Amid this, industry insiders noted that director Prasanth Varma is ambitiously scaling up the production, despite budgetary constraints typically associated with such large-scale projects.
It appears that several Bollywood stars are going to crucial roles in Jai Hanuman.
Celebrating its 100th day, the film has delighted fans by running in 25 centres for its entire duration. The film also grossed over ₹200 crore worldwide.
Remarkably, Hanu-Man stands out as the only recent film to achieve this feat across so many locations.
Heart Filled with Gratitude!
Will always remember that you all have made this possible for me. #HanuMan will be my Sweetest memory for life.
– With ❤️

For now, Prasanth Varma is passionately working on Jai Hanuman, aiming to recreate the magic of its predecessor.
