Hanuman Ansh Box Office Day 27: Low-Budget Hit Crosses ₹72 Crore, Outperforms Yash’s Toxic

NEW DELHI — In one of the most remarkable box office turnarounds in recent cinema history, the low-budget film Hanuman Ansh continues its miraculous theatrical run. Entering its fourth week, the biographical drama based on Neem Karoli Baba earned an impressive ₹7.25 crore nett in India on Day 27, officially pushing its gross collections past the ₹72 crore mark.

A Historic Turnaround Driven by Word of Mouth

What makes the performance of Hanuman Ansh extraordinary is its humble beginning. Released in theatres on August 7, 2026, with a modest budget of around ₹1.8 crore, the film opened to a meager ₹10 lakh on Day 1. Early daily collections even slipped to as low as ₹4 lakh, hinting at a quiet exit from screens.

However, strong word-of-mouth chatter completely flipped the narrative around Day 17, when daily earnings suddenly spiked to ₹2.20 crore. The momentum has only escalated since, driven by audience goodwill and emotional resonance.

Key Box Office Figures at a Glance:

 Day 27 Collection (India Nett): ₹7.25 crore

 Fourth Wednesday Theatre Occupancy: 29%

 Total Domestic Nett Collection: ₹61.38 crore

 Total Gross Collection: ₹72.32 crore

 Production Budget: ~₹1.8 crore

Outpacing Pan-India Heavyweight ‘Toxic’

The dramatic surge has placed Hanuman Ansh ahead of major mainstream releases. On its 27th day, the film outperformed superstar Yash’s pan-India release, Toxic: A Fairytale For Grown-Ups, which managed ₹5.10 crore nett on its 8th day.

While Toxic launched with a massive ₹100+ crore opening before seeing standard weekday dips, Hanuman Ansh has done the exact opposite—climbing from lakhs to multi-crore daily figures late into its fourth week.
