Return of Hanuman

Return of Hanuman is a 2007 Indian Hindi-language animated action-adventure film directed by Anurag Kashyap.

It is seemingly a sequel to Hanuman, it was produced by Shailendra Singh at Percept Picture Company and Toonz Animation, and the music was composed by Tapas Relia.

One night, when the priest was going back to his home, he was chased by some thugs, kidnapped, and then thrown inside a blockage.

Maruti easily defeats Rahu and Ketu with the help of his army of monkeys that came to help him to get free from the hands of culprits (who caught him because he stole the mangoes from his garden).

God Ram then said that when a blockage, which is seen in the end, is cleared then the monster (mainly made of plastic and other waste thrown by humans) will finish up.

The film has seven songs, including two instrumental tracks, composed by Tapas Relia and with lyrics penned by Satish Mutatkar.

[3] Khalid Mohamed of Hindustan Times gave the film 3 out of 5, writing, "It could become a rocking franchise – the continuing adventures of baby Hanuman.

"While adults may question Kashyap's take on mythology or disapprove of Gods conversing in Hinglish, kids might find the action entertaining.

"[5] In 2019, director Anurag Kashyap called Return of Hanuman "a terrible film" and that he was "incapable of doing animation.

"[6] A spin-off series named The New Adventures of Hanuman was produced and aired on Pogo TV and Cartoon Network India.
