The pan-Indian Jai Hanuman is envisioned as a large-scale cinematic spectacle.

While the exact release date hasn’t been announced yet, the film is expected to hit the theatres later in 2026. The pan-Indian film is envisioned as a large-scale cinematic spectacle. Jai Hanuman is being mounted with expansive production values and advanced technology to do justice to the scale and reverence the story demands. Jai Hanuman is envisioned as a tribute to one of the most revered figures in Hindu mythology, celebrating faith, courage and strength in a way that resonates with audiences across the country.

Earlier, there were many reports suggesting that Teja was no longer a part of Jai Hanuman and the actor had walked out of the project due to limited screen time as well as creative differences with the PVCU. There were also speculations about Teja becoming picky about the roles he was choosing after the huge box office success of Hanu-Man. However, Teja Sajja later denied the rumours during an interview with Hindustan Times. The actor cleared the air and called the news false and emphasised that he has not backed out from Jai Hanuman or the PVCU.

Jai Hanuman is a sequel to Hanu-Man, which earned Rs 295.29 crore worldwide, according to industry tracker Sacnilk, against a production budget of Rs 40 crore, but with a different narrative. The mythological spectacle has now officially gone on floors.
