India's first blockbuster of 2024, teja Sajja's telugu film HanuMan, grossed ₹40.65 crore in its first weekend. This is higher than Yash-starring KGF: Chapter 1 and Rishab Shetty's Kantara. It appears to be on par with Allu Arjun's Pushpa: The Rise, and it will remain in theatres for another ten days till hrithik roshan and deepika Padukone's fighter is released.

Despite a modest start of ₹8 crore, HanuMan had significant growth owing to excellent word of mouth. It debuted with Mahesh Babu's guntur Kaaram and had a greater sunday collection of ₹16 crore. Despite a larger opening, HanuMan's final collection of ₹69 crore remains under expectations. HanuMan grossed ₹28.21 crore in telugu, ₹12 crore in Hindi, ₹19 lakh in tamil and Kannada, and ₹6 lakh in malayalam during its opening weekend, according to Sacnilk.com.

Confirming the same, film trade analyst Taran adarsh wrote on X on Monday, “Here’s the big surprise… #HanuMan first *3-day* [opening weekend] total is higher than #KGF [first part] and #Kantara, at par with #Pushpa [note: all #Hindi dubbed versions]… Yes, you read it right! #HanuMan emerges first hit of 2024… Packs an impressive total in its *opening weekend*… While mass pockets continue to dominate, the national chains have also joined the party… Fri 2.15 cr, Sat 4.05 cr, sun 6.06 cr. Total: ₹ 12.26 cr. #India biz. Note: #Hindi version.”
