    GREAT Blending of MYTHOLOGY & BOLLYWOOD.

    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.

    Available on YouTube, MX Player & JioCinema.

    This made my childhood awesome

    I dont usually write reviews but this movie is probably my most watched in my childhood . I loved it back when I was a kid and I still got lot of love for this movie. I loved hunaman ji back then more than anything.

    Best Indian cartoon of its time

    Best Indian cartoon of its time. With lots of humour and good messaging for children to preserve nature.

    You might enjoy this film, the concept was definitely unique for it's time

    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.

    Favorite Childhood Movie

    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.
