Finally watched Prashanth Varma’s Hanuman starring Teja Sajja, Amrita Iyer, Varalakshmi Sarathkumar and Vinay Rai among others. It is the perfect amalgamation of Devotion, superhero and pop culture. Teja Sajja’s character goes from carefree/impish to eventually realizing his powers and using them for the greater good.

Teja Sajja as Hanumanthu has an energetic presence about him and he pulls off the different shades. The women characters fortunately are no push overs. Varalakshmi Sarathkumar playing the elder sister has a strong personality both in the way the role has been written and enacted. The actress also gets her own mass moment which is a delight to watch. Amrita Iyer also does well as Hanumanthu’s sweetheart. She is not just the typical love interest. Ravi Teja’s voiceover to a monkey called Koti provide some laughs. The visual effects are also topnotch. This in spite of the budget being nowhere close to Adipurush. Om Raut and the team can easily learn from Hanuman.
Final word: Do watch, it is thoroughly entertaining for all ages.
