‘Hanuman Ansh’ emerged as one of the biggest surprise success stories of 2026, turning a modest theatrical opening into a remarkable box-office run. The devotional drama, directed by Vishal Chaturvedi and centered on the life of Neem Karoli Baba, has continued to attract audiences even after completing a month in theatres.
According to the latest figures available on September 8, the film collected Rs. 131.74 crore net in India, while its domestic gross collection stands at approximately Rs. 155.78 crore. The Day 33 figures are still being updated, meaning the final collection for the day could rise further.

The film's journey has been anything but conventional. ‘Hanuman Ansh’ opened in theatres with just Rs. 10 lakh on Day 1, followed by Rs. 20 lakh and Rs. 30 lakh on its second and third days. Its first-week collection stood at Rs. 1.08 crore, while the second week saw collections fall to around Rs. 40 lakh.
However, the film gradually gained momentum through strong word of mouth. Its third week brought in around Rs. 10.40 crore, followed by a spectacular Rs. 61 crore in Week 4. The movie then maintained its extraordinary run into its fifth week.
The fifth weekend proved to be a major turning point. ‘Hanuman Ansh’ collected Rs. 49.25 crore net between Friday and Sunday, surpassing the fifth-weekend collections of both the ‘Dhurandhar’ films. On Day 31 alone, the film earned a massive Rs. 22.75 crore, its biggest single-day collection at that point.
On Day 32, the film collected another Rs. 9.50 crore net, despite registering a 58.2% decline from the previous day's record figure. This took its India net total to Rs. 131.63 crore and gross collection to Rs. 155.65 crore.
One of the biggest talking points around ‘Hanuman Ansh’ is its exceptionally low production budget. Multiple reports have placed the film's budget at approximately Rs. 2 crore, making its current theatrical performance extraordinary in comparison.
The film initially struggled for screens and opened across a limited number of locations. Despite its slow start and lack of a major star cast, audience response gradually increased its theatrical footprint. The resulting word-of-mouth momentum transformed the movie into a sleeper hit.
By Day 31, ‘Hanuman Ansh’ crossed the Rs. 100-crore net milestone in India. Its subsequent surge pushed the domestic gross beyond Rs. 150 crore.

There is more to the movie's theater experience to come. In view of the strength in collections even in the fifth week of its run, ‘Hanuman Ansh’ will be reaping the fruits of its popularity. There is also a plan for an overseas release of the movie on September 11, which might serve as yet another source of income for the movie.
In other words, ‘Hanuman Ansh’ has made Rs. 131.74 crore net and Rs. 155.78 crore gross till September 8 in India. Its extraordinary rise from a Rs. 10-lakh opening day to more than Rs. 155 crore in domestic gross earnings makes Hanuman Ansh one of the year's most unexpected box-office success stories.
