Hanuman Ansh pulled off one of the most unexpected box-office turnarounds of 2026. The devotional drama, following the legendary life of Neem Karoli Baba, collected approximately Rs. 169.20 crore gross and Rs. 143.13 crore net in India by its 33rd day. This marks a massive jump for the film’s mere budget of Rs. 2 crore.
The film’s extraordinary success becomes even more interesting when its cast salaries are considered. Unlike big-budget Bollywood films where leading stars can charge several crores, the lead actors of Hanuman Ansh were reportedly paid in lakhs. Amid its breakout success, take a look at the salaries that the cast reportedly earned for the film.
Shobhinaw Satyaa reportedly earned Rs. 15 lakh for Hanuman Ansh
According to media reports circulating online, the combined remuneration of the six central cast members of Hanuman Ansh is around Rs. 38.5 lakh. Shobhinaw Satyaa, who plays adult ‘Neem Karoli Baba’ in the film, was the highest-paid actor in the film, with his salary reported to be around Rs. 15 lakh.
