Competing with big films at the box office
Made on a reported shoestring budget of just ₹1.75-2 crore, Hanuman Ansh opened against Ohh My Dog and Aryabhatta Ka Zero.
It later clashed with Awarapan 2 and Batwara 1947 at the box office.
The low-budget film is now competing with Yash's Toxic and Mirzapur: The Movie, which were released recently.
Despite the stiff competition, it has managed to hold its ground due to its strong subject.
