The film has had a stupendous run at the box office so far, to say the least. Hanuman Ansh, which opened at a meagre ₹10 lakh in India, went onto rake in ₹10.40 crore by the end of its third week.

How has it fared against recent releases?

Not only has Hanuman Ansh proven the power of word of mouth, it has also stood tall against recent releases - Haiwaan and Mirzapur: The Movie.

Haiwaan, the crime thriller featuring Akshay Kumar and Saif Ali Khan in leading roles, is on path to be declared a disaster. The film has made a total of ₹8.75 crore in terms of net domestic box office earnings, taking its India gross collections to ₹10.46 crore.

Pankaj Tripathi and Ali Fazal-starrer Mirzapur: The Movie, on the other hand, has managed to stand its ground against Hanuman Ansh. Mirzapur: The Movie, based on the popular OTT series Mirzapur, is eyeing the ₹200 crore mark at the domestic box office.

As of its 12th day, the film has made ₹195.70 crore in terms of India net box office collection, taking its domestic gross collection to ₹233.14 crore.
