Jai Hanuman is touted to be a high-octane superhero action film. The Hanu-Man sequel depicts Kaliyuga, during which Lord Hanuman lives in Agyathavas, an exile bound by a sacred oath. Produced by Mythri Movie Makers, the premiere date for the epic action-drama is yet to be announced.

Meanwhile, Rishab Shetty is busy working on Kantara Chapter 1, a prequel to his 2022 film Kantara. Set in the 300s CE, Kantara prequel's plot delves deeper into the mythology and cultural context that set the setting for the original film. Kantara Chapter 1 is backed by Hombale Films. The pan-India movie will be released in seven languages — Kannada, Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Bengali and English.
