Hanuman Ansh Team Calls on UP CM Yogi Adityanath as Film's Box Office Run Continues

The makers of Hanuman Ansh met Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath in Lucknow as the spiritual film continues its successful box office run.

The team behind the spiritual drama Hanuman Ansh met Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath at his official residence in Lucknow. Director Vishal Chaturvedi and actor Shobhinaw Satyaa were among those who attended the courtesy call, with visuals from the meeting showing the delegation interacting with the Chief Minister.

The meeting comes as the film continues to draw attention from political leaders alongside its strong box office performance. Earlier, Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami attended a special screening of the movie and subsequently announced that it would be made tax-free in the state, citing its connection to Kainchi Dham.

Hanuman Ansh, written and directed by Chaturvedi, is based on the life and teachings of Neeb Karori Baba, widely known to followers as Maharaj ji. Revered by devotees as an incarnation of Lord Hanuman, the saint's philosophy centered on love, devotion, and service. The film's central message is built around the principles of "love all, serve all, feed all and remember Ram."

Produced on a modest budget, the film has exceeded expectations at the box office. Veteran trade analyst Taran Adarsh has described it as "the biggest success story of 2026." The movie is scheduled for an international release on September 11, 2026.
