If there was a film in the Sankranti race that left moviegoers and trade analysts pleasantly surprised with its story as well as theatrical performance, it is Hanu-Man. Described as the first Telugu-language superhero film,Hanu-Man is having a dream run at the box office. The film, headlined by Teja Sajja, is continuing its steady performance by making ₹1.25 crore on Tuesday, trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared.

Day 12 - ₹ 7.20 cr, Total - ₹ 225.62 cr.”
About the film, NDTV's Saibal Chatterjee wrote: “Prasanth Varma's Hanu-Man, touted as the first Telugu-language superhero movie, scores in terms of scale and ambition. The execution, notwithstanding a few visual and ideational highs (most of them CGI-driven), struggles at times to keep pace what the film's racing inner pulse. The disconnect mercifully isn't overly glaring….At the level of the yarn that Varma's screenplay spins, Hanu-Man is a blend of the mythic and the mundane, the bombastic and the blithe. The film constantly flits from the epic to the everyday as it presents the coming-of-age story of an ordinary village boy who one fine day acquires Hanuman-like strength.” He gave the film 2.5 stars.
Hanu-Man released during Sankranti alongside big names such as Captain Miller, Guntur Kaaram and Merry Christmas. The film has been directed by Prasanth Varma.
