Hanuman Ansh Earns Rs 366 Crore After Minimal-Budget Gamble
Hanuman Ansh is a movie that cost only a little more than Rs 1.5 crore to make.
It has earned about Rs 366.45 crore from theatres in 47 days.
This makes it a very successful surprise hit.
Producer Anupriya Nagar put Rs 50 lakh into the movie.
Director Vishal Chaturvedi did not take a fee while making it.
Instead, he and the three producers will divide the remaining profits equally.
Nagar thinks her share could be at least Rs 50 crore.
That estimate may change because the movie has not yet made its streaming, television or music deals.
Hanuman Ansh collected Rs 366.45 crore gross during its first 47 days in theatres.
The film was made on a budget of slightly more than Rs 1.5 crore.
Producer Anupriya Nagar invested Rs 50 lakh, or about one-third of the budget.
Director Vishal Chaturvedi waived his fee during production and shares profits as an equal partner.
Nagar estimates she could earn at least Rs 50 crore, although OTT, satellite and music deals are still pending.

Quotes
Anupriya Nagar
Producer and investor in Hanuman Ansh
“Our budget was very minimal, so he said that he won’t take any fee during the making. But in the company, we are all equal partners, so if we are doing well, then the four of us will be doing well.”
