Return of Hanuman

This movie is way ahead of its time. It's 2025 and didn't get this type of movie till now. It is cult classic. Need this type of movie in future. Hope Anurag dada make a new movie based on it. Well...I don't know why this movie flopped. This movie has potential till now for future kids to learn from it by its massive environment related issues.

I recently discovered "Returns of Hanuman". Now I really regret that why didn't I watch it on big screen. And thats the reason that ROH didn't do well on box office cos we all missed it on silver screen. I am very much sure that ROH would be discovered by larger population in near future (and its becoming a trend with all Anurag Kashyap' movies).

ROH is not a master piece but I will say it is a first brick in the wall. I hope this would inspire many others and soon we will watch our own high budget animation movie. Actually I got scared after watching Koi Mil Gaya, Krish etc. cos it was starting a wrong trend. But ROH breaks that notion and promises a bright future of intelligent Animation/SciFi movies.

Though ROH is a sheer mimic show of bollywood, mythology, politics etc but still I found it fresh and creative. Movie has got nothing but a mind blowing pace. Script of ROH takes lots of pressure from other departments because of budget constraints and Anurag smartly handled it.

Thanks Anurag!! Keep it up!!

This is my favourite childhood movie which never goes from my memory 😀. Even I don't know how many countless times I have seen it, but still wanna watch it more. Behaviour of Narada, Brahma and Hanuman makes very interesting. Usage of modern technology by Gods is just fun to watch. This movie changed my view on cartoon movies a lot. Whoever remember these characters - Two scientists, Kute wale raksash, Army of monkeys, Alien 👽 news channel reporters, these characters are unerasable & always make me laugh. The opening song when Hanuman travels earth 🌎 for first time and dances with Statues, Sharks🦈, Cricketers, etc. gives me goosebumps. Am a late 90's born kid, today in my early 20's and when I first saw the movie I was 7 years old. And still feel excited to watch the movie 😻. Far better than many non-animated movies. Whoever remember this dialogue - 'Maruti kuch different hai' 😆 If you are not from Indian culture, am sure you won't like the movie 🍿, because it seems so illogical and ironic to you. Indian culture is full of such characters, and logics. Only a Indian can feel the fun of the movie. But you can still enjoy the cute voices and songs.

Return of Hanuman is set on our modem world. Many of us have seen it in our childhood. But, there were so many things that we did not enjoy then. So, after revisiting I can say this is the best Indian Animated movie. It had detailed animation that our Indian animation lacks. Every voice actors did great job. Music & Songs were easily lovable and now nostalgic for many of us.

The Strongest point of this film were the script and the dialogues by none other than Anurag Kashyap. I loved all the characters. One of the villain here was the combination of all our great Bollywood villains and heroes. Many may remind the 'Gabbar' reference but the 'Thakur' reference is gold. Besides, throughout the film it gave a strong message.

Finally, this is A GREAT blending of Mythology & Bollywood.

I have amazing childhood memories with this film, I watched it for the first time when I was 11 or 12 and I absolutely loved it. Even though there are so many negative comments from the critics, I think this movie is a great watch for its targeted audience. Maybe because of those childhood memories, I still love watching this film even today. Animation is definitely praiseworthy for it's time.
