Released on January 12, 2024, Hanu-Man or HanuMan was a critical and commercial success. The plot revolves around Hanumanthu, who is bestowed with the abilities of Lord Hanuman and takes on evil forces to protect his native village. The filmmakers announced the development of a sequel, Jai HanuMan, soon after the premiere of the first film. Interested in knowing about the prospective release date of the sequel? You have reached the corrected site.
Here’s all Jai HanuMan release date information we know so far, and all the details on when it is coming out.
Is there a Jai HanuMan release date?
Jai HanuMan’s release date could arrive in 2025 at the earliest.
The end credits of Hamu-Man hint toward a prospective sequel. In January 2024, Prasanth Varma revealed that Lord Hanuman would be the focus of the narrative in the sequel.
“It was very difficult to find an actor who could suit Hanuman’s face and image, so we did not show him in our movie. But we will show him in the sequels,” the filmmakers said.
“In the second film, you will see more of Hanuman on screen. He will be the lead in that,” Varma added. “Teja Sajja’s character will also be there but the story is about the promise Hanuman made to Lord Ram. We have actually written the story for Jai Hanuman the sequel already. We focused more on the Jai Hanuman storyline than Hanu-Man’s story. There were no plans to add a cliffhanger initially but we decided to tease it in the first part just a few months before the release.”
Previously, Varma spoke about developing a superhero franchise based on Hindu stories and epics. He took to X (formerly known as Twitter) in January 2024 to announce that the pre-production for Jai HanuMan would begin on the day of the Ram temple inauguration in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh.
According to some reports published in the same month, RRR’s Ram Charan was slated to audition for the role of Lord Ram. If filming begins later this year, Jai HanuMan can potentially debut in 2025 at the earliest.
This date is an estimation based on the information we have at the time of this writing.
The cast of Hanu-Man 2 can potentially include Teja Sajja as Hanumanthu / Hanu-Man, Amritha Aiyer as Meenakshi, and Vinay Rai as Michael / Mega Man. Some of the other members of the cast can be Samuthirakani as Vibhishana and Varalaxmi Sarathkumar as Anjamma.
Where is Jai HanuMan coming out?
Hanu-Man 2 is anticipated to come out in theaters sometime in 2026.
This is because Jai HanuMan came out in theaters and was a massive commercial success. ComingSoon will provide an update when there is an announcement about the sequel to Hanu-Man.
The official synopsis for Jai HanuMan reads:
“Upcoming Hanu-Man Sequel. This movie is About the promise Hanuman Made to Lord Rama.”
