The upcoming mythological film 'Jai Hanuman' is already creating a strong buzz among movie lovers. Directed by Prasanth Varma, the film is part of the expanding universe that began with the blockbuster 'Hanu-Man.' Actor and filmmaker Rishab Shetty will play the powerful role of Lord Hanuman in the movie. The project recently began with a traditional launch ceremony at Anjanadri Betta in Karnataka, a location believed to be Hanuman's birthplace. With a grand mythological theme and a strong cast, the film is expected to be one of the most ambitious projects in the franchise.
