Prashanth Varma’sHanu-Man<\/em><\/a> is making all the right noises at the box office. The film, which is touted as the first Telugu-language superhero movie, is rewriting record books and how. Released on January 12, Hanu-Man<\/em>‘s business in its opening weekend has surpassed the collection of Hindi versions of blockbusters like KGF: Chapter 1, Kantara <\/em>and Pushpa: The Rise<\/em> for the corresponding time frame. This amazing development was announced by trade analyst and film critic Taran Adarsh on Monday, in a post on X (formerly Twitter). The trade analyst revealed that the film on day 3 minted \u20b9 6.06 crore (Hindi version) at the domestic box office. After this, the film’s total business now stands at \u20b9 12.26 crore at the Indian box office. While sharing the poster of the film, Taran Adarsh crowned the film as the \u201cfirst hit of 2024\u201d.<\/p>\n

Sharing the poster of Hanu-Man<\/em>‘s titular character played by Teja Sajja, Taran Adarsh wrote, \u201cHere’s a big surprise\u2026 Hanu-Man<\/em> first *3-day* [opening weekend] total is higher than KGF<\/em> [first part] and Kantara<\/em>, at par with Pushpa<\/em> [note: all Hindi dubbed versions]\u2026 Yes, you read it right! Hanu-Man<\/em> emerges first hit of 2024\u2026 Packs an impressive total in its opening weekend\u2026 While mass pockets continue to dominate, the national chains have also joined the party\u2026 Friday 2.15 crore, Saturday 4.05 crore, Sunday 6.06 crore. Total: \u20b9 12.26 crore. India business. Note: Hindi version. Going forward, the strong hold in mass sectors is a big plus, since these pockets will be driving its biz on weekdays\u2026 Also, as highlighted yesterday, a lack of major releases – till Fighter [25 January] – should help Hanu-Man<\/em> cement its status. Telugu version in North India: Friday 24 lacs, Saturday 40 lacs, Sunday 45 lacs. Total: \u20b9 1.09 crore.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hanu-Man<\/em> is one of the several Tamil and Telugu films to have been released during the Pongal\/ Sankranti weekend. The numbers show that Hanu-Man<\/em> is winning the Sankranti race at least in the Telugu states. However, as per reports, the makers of the film have registered a complaint over unfair theatre practices with the Telugu Film Producers Council. As per Hindustan Times,<\/a> Producer Niranja Reddy has alleged that a few theatres that had agreed to screen Hanu-Man<\/em> on January 12 had refused to do so. The makers’ statement read, \u201cThe theatres did not screen the movie Hanu-Man<\/em> as per the agreement. The distributors and producers suffered huge losses. So these theatres must immediately start showing the movie Hanu-Man<\/em> and bear the loss so far.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, film critic Saibal Chatterjee, in his review for NDTV,<\/a> gave Hanu-Man<\/em> a 2.5-star rating. He wrote, \u201cThe first hour or so of the 158-minute movie is devoted to setting the stage for the grand transition – the man’s extraordinary leap into the league of superheroes as the world knows them. It is only after 40 minutes of meandering through his light-hearted shenanigans and comic misadventures that Hanu\u00a0 Man<\/em> reaches the point from where the essential classic confrontation between good and evil can begin.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Apart from Teja Sajja, Hanu-Man<\/em> features Amritha Aiyer, Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, Deepak Shetty and Vennela Kishore in important roles.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
