“A potent superhero experience, marked by its punchy narrative and engaging theatricality”– Surya Kamal, JUST FOR MOVIE FREAKS
“Solid storytelling, impressive visuals, and strong performances... successfully merges elements of mythology with contemporary action”– Paul Nicodemus, TIMES OF INDIA
Nobody’s idea of a hero, humble villager Hanumantha is cheerful, charming, highly acrobatic, and an incorrigible petty thief. His pilfering is pretty minor compared to the lovely, resolute Meenakshi, who has stolen his heart, or to town tyrant Gajapathi and his gang of thugs extorting and abusing the inhabitants of Anjanadri. Hanumantha’s one attempt at valour leaves him at death’s door—and in possession of a miraculous gemstone, one that endows superhuman abilities. This is good news for the oppressed villagers, but it also attracts the attention of Mega-Man, Mumbai’s mysterious, high-tech vigilante, who has designs on the sacred gem and a dark secret in his past. Great challenges lie ahead for Hanumantha, as does a divine revelation about his destiny...
With this high-energy mash-up of superhero thrills, slapstick hilarity, rugged action, romance, and reverent devotion, further enhanced with marvelous music, melodrama, martial arts, and a smartass talking monkey, HANU-MAN marks the auspicious introduction of Tollywood visionary Prasanth Varma’s new Cinematic Universe. The director proved to be one to watch with the groundbreaking 2021 zom-com ZOMBIE REDDY, and reunites with its charismatic lead actor Teja Sajja for the first star in his constellation of superhero sagas imbued with Hindu values. Boasting top-notch production, whistleworthy stunts, amazing visual effects, and pop-culture references aplenty, HANU-MAN is a certified crowdpleaser, having smashed multiple box-office records for Telugu-language films, and is guaranteed to make Fantasia’s crowd go ape! – Rupert Bottenberg
