About the box office turnaround of Hanuman Ansh
Hanuman Ansh opened at a paltry ₹10 lakh and had earned barely ₹1.50 crore in its first two weeks in theatres. However, after that, positive word of mouth took over, and the ticket sales shot up. Since its fourth week, Hanuman Ansh has collected over ₹60 crore net each week at the Indian box office. On Wednesday, its 41st day in theatres, Hanuman Ansh earned a handsome ₹6 crore net in India. This took its domestic collection to ₹237 crore net ( ₹280 crore gross). It is now the fourth-highest-grossing film in India this year, behind only Dhurandhar 2, Border 2, and Spider-Man: Brand New Day. What is commendable about Hanuman Ansh’s run is that it is out-earning Mirzapur The Movie, a more recent release, by a factor of almost 50%.
All about the film
Written and directed by Vishal Chaturvedi, Hanuman Ansh follows a grieving young man, Lakshminarayan, who embarks on a spiritual journey in search of God after his mother’s death. As he travels across North India in search of answers to life, death, and human suffering, he eventually becomes the revered saint Neem Karoli Baba.
