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.
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.
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.
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.
Producers who secured the rights for Hanu-Man in most regions are now eyeing the rights for this sequel. Updates on this are expected to be announced soon.
