Before Kangana, Madhur Bhandarkar had also praised Hanuman Ansh. The filmmaker highlighted the audience response to the film and its performance at the box office. He wrote, “Witnessed pure cinematic magic watching #HanumanAnsh in the theatre the audience was completely glued to the screen @filmervishal direction is wonderfully honest & tender, while actor Shobhinav Satya’s portrayal of Neem Karoli Baba is purely natural and flawless.”
Madhur further praised the film for making an impact despite having a limited budget and a non-star cast. He added, “This small budget film with a non-star cast is a crucial case study for the entire Indian film industry. It proves that true conviction and powerful storytelling always triumph over massive budget films at the box office. My heartiest congratulations to the entire team the producers, actors, and technicians for their brilliant dedication, and a big thank you to the audience for making this incredible film a roaring blockbuster!”
