In Hindu mythology, Ramayan is the most popular story ever told. And when it comes to Ramayan, then its not just Ram, Laxman, Sita and Ravan. There is also one more important character in the story - HANUMAN.

Hanuman - who was blessed by the GODS with supernatural strength
Hanuman - who flew across mountains and leapt across the oceans
Hanuman - who is the mighty warrior, the destroyer of the wicked

Cast: Mukesh Khanna as the voice of Hanuman

The highlight of the movie is that it is India’s first ever animated movie based on Hanuman’s life and takes the viewer through Hanuman’s birth till the great victory over Lanka. The movie talks about number of extraordinary feats that he displayed since his childhood through 100 minutes of world class animation. The movie boasts of 40 characters and 200,000 individual images that resulted in the movie Hanuman, which is directed by V.G.Samant and has Mukesh Khanna providing the voiceover for Hanuman.

The movie revolves around five principal characters of Ramayana - Ram, Sita, Laxman, Ravan and of course Hanuman. The movie traces Hanuman’s life from his childhood when he was born to Anjani, a female Apsara and the Moneky King Kesari. When Anjani was expecting a child, Pavan Dev placed Lord Shiva’s ‘ansh’ in her womb and hence he is also called ‘Pavanputra’. He was blessed with supreme intelligence, strength and devine powers and was quite naughty as a baby [one look at the animated picture of a cute looking young Hanuman and you know for sure that this is a naughty kid!]

A spectacular affair, ‘Hanuman’ promises to be a coming of age animated movie in Bollywood with great fun, drama, action, vibrant colors, fast moving frames, great sound effects, songs, dances and everything else that should go along to make an animated movie a great experience for kids and adults alike.
