The origin of HanuMan

HanuMan marks the first entry into a superhero movieverse that Prasanth aims to create. Drawing inspiration from Indian mythologies, the director crafts stories set in contemporary settings.

HanuMan follows a selfish and very irresponsible youngster in a fictional hamlet called Anjanadri. His life dramatically changes when he accidentally comes into possession of an ancient gemstone, providing him a way to access the powers of Lord Hanuman. The rest of the story follows a familiar pattern of an origin story, with Hanumanthu (Teja Sajja) discovering his superpowers and learning ways to use them to assist those in need.
