Along the way, it also entered the list of the top 50 highest-grossing Indian films of all time. Hanuman Ansh had established itself as the most successful and profitable Indian film weeks ago, but it just refuses to slow down even after seven weeks in theatres. The devotional film had another stellar weekend – its eighth – allowing it to reach new milestones at the box office.
Hanuman Ansh opened at a paltry ₹ 10 lakh and had earned barely ₹ 1.50 crore in its first two weeks. Since its fourth week, Hanuman Ansh has collected over ₹ 60 crore in net at the Indian box office each week. The devotional film earned ₹ 18.95 crore net on the weekend, including a staggering ₹ 9 crore on Sunday alone. This takes the film’s total domestic haul to ₹ 307 crore net ( ₹ 362 crore gross) after 52 days. On Sunday, Hanuman Ansh crossed the ₹ 300-crore mark at the domestic box office, something fewer than 25 Hindi films have managed before it. As of Monday, it has earned over $4 million in the international territories. This takes the film’s worldwide gross to ₹ 402 crore.
Hanuman Ansh did not hit it out of the park right off the bat. The film had a slow start and was actually written off after its first two weeks in theatres. However, after that, positive word of mouth took over, and the ticket sales shot up. This weekend was its eighth at the theatres. Overseas, Hanuman Ansh had a delayed release. It found international release almost six weeks after its Indian release, but has since picked up pace. The film stars Shobhinaw Satyaa in the lead role alongside Vihaan Shedge, Chandan K Anand, Purnima Tiwari, Anil Rastogi, Gulshan Pandey and Bhagvandas Patel.
