Success of the film 'Hanuman Ansh' caused regret among Bollywood figures who previously refused to support the project

The film 'Hanuman Ansh', dedicated to Nimu Karoli Baba, has achieved significant success, securing a historic place in just 50 days. The profit earned by the creators far exceeds the revenue from most large-budget films. Nevertheless, the team plans to continue showing the film in theaters for another 100 days.

Against the backdrop of such great success, some representatives of Bollywood have begun apologizing to the film's creators. The producer, Anpuria Nagar, clarified this request in an interview with Siddharth Khanna.

Anpuria Nagar stated that the director approached many influential figures asking them to invest in the film. However, at that time, no one provided assistance. Now, after the film became such a big success, these people are calling the director and producer to apologize.

The producer noted that even before the production of 'Hanuman Ansh' began, the team sought investors for post-production, but no one agreed to provide funds, even though huge investments were not required for this.

She added that only a few supported the project before the film's release because most people did not believe in it. They considered it a low-budget film, the director's debut work, and believed the actors were newcomers, assuming the film would quickly be forgotten.

After the premiere, the producer reported a change in atmosphere: many producers contacted them, which was a positive development for her. They congratulated her on the film's success. Some even came and apologized, admitting that the film could have been theirs and expressing regret for not being able to join the project. She called this her biggest mistake.

Anpuria emphasized that the film taught the entire industry an important lesson, demonstrating that even a small picture can reach great heights. She assured that she is ready to provide any necessary help, although she does not blame those who refused, considering it was a low-budget project at the time.

As for the film 'Hanuman Ansh' itself, it has already collected over 370 million rupees worldwide and is preparing to cross the 400 million mark.

Atlee discussed collaboration with Thalapathy Vijay and Shah Rukh Khan

2023 was a special year for Shah Rukh Khan as it marked his return, during which he released two films, 'Pathaan' and 'Jawan,' both collecting over 1000 crore at the box office. In 'Jawan,' Shah Rukh worked with Tamil cinema director Atlee Kumar for the first time. Previously, he had created many successful films with the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, Thalapathy Vijay.

Atlee also directed a blockbuster starring Shah Rukh, further elevating his status in the industry. The director shared his impressions of working with Thalapathy Vijay and Shah Rukh Khan during an event in Chennai.

'Jawan' completely changed Atlee Kumar's life, allowing him to gain recognition not only in South India but also in North India. Commenting on this significant career shift, the director spoke about his experience collaborating with Thalapathy Vijay and Shah Rukh Khan.

Speaking about the beginning of his collaboration with CM Vijay, Atlee noted that all the clothes he wears now were earned through his own efforts. However, he emphasized that his elder brother, Thalapathy Vijay, contributed greatly to this success. He stated that it would have been impossible without Vijay's support.

After the release of his second film, 'Raja Rani,' in 2013, he began to achieve success, but it was Vijay who consistently provided him with opportunities for growth through films like 'Teri,' 'Marcel,' and 'Bigil.'

Atlee recalled meeting Shah Rukh before the shooting of 'Jawan' and recounted Thalapathy Vijay's reaction to the situation. The director shared that when Shah Rukh came to his office for a meeting, Vijay advised him: 'I don't know how you will do it or manage it, but don't follow me. Just make this film. It will change the direction of your career.' Atlee confirmed that his life truly changed and that he is very grateful to Vijay for it.

In conclusion, Atlee responded to rumors that he often mentions Thalapathy Vijay's name to get the opportunity to work with him again. The director refuted this, saying that he will not be able to make the next film with him since Vijay has become the Chief Minister. Nevertheless, he will remain a brother to him.

As for Atlee Kumar, he is currently attracting attention with his project 'Raka.' He is shooting this film with Allu Arjun, Deepika Padukone, Mrinal Thakur, Rashmika Mandanna, and Janhvi Kapoor. Preliminary estimates place the budget of this movie at around 800 crore rupees, with a release planned for next year.
