India got its new superhero with the blockbuster film HanuMan. The movie was released across the country on January 12, 2024, and now, it has made its digital debut more than two months later. The Teja Sajja starrer’s OTT release saw several delays but has now arrived on ZEE5. Unsurprisingly, within a few hours, the movie did extraordinarily well on the streaming platform and has set a new record of the year.
Prasanth Varma directed HanuMan, while Primeshow Entertainment bankrolled it. Furthermore, it is the first film of Prasanth Varma’s Cinematic Universe. The film’s official synopsis reads, “In a small village, Hanumanthu, a petty thief, finds a mysterious gem, that gives him god-like powers. Will he succeed in keeping these powers from falling into the wrong hands and save his village?”
Apart from Teja Sajja, Amritha Aiyer, Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, Vinay Rai, Vennela Kishore, and others played pivotal roles in the film.

HanuMan amazed the entire country with its box office success. The film competed with several highly anticipated movies and emerged as a blockbuster. Originally made in Telugu, the film has now set a new record on the OTT platform ZEE5. In less than 11 hours of its arrival on ZEE5, the movie reached 102 million minutes and set a new record in 2024. The movie’s record has left everyone stunned, even though it is yet to be released digitally in Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada languages.
Sharing the piece of news on Instagram, Prasanth Varma wrote, “Celebrating Hanuman’s Remarkable Journey As It Reaches That Milestone of 102 Million Streaming Minutes.”
Additionally, on X (formerly Twitter), he also thanked the audience for their love. He wrote, “Grateful to all the audience for offering #HanuMan a historical and record-breaking reception on OTT. Kickstart your week with a HIGH with the thumping.”
