RETURN OF HANUMAN is an innovative blend of mythology and contemporary themes, merging the ancient with the modern. The film begins with a disclaimer stating it's not a sequel, but it's difficult to watch without comparing it to the original HANUMAN. The new film takes a different approach, handling the mythology in a fresh way. The story follows a small village boy, Minku, who's ridiculed by his friends until Lord Hanuman intervenes. The film's first hour is impressive, with engaging sequences that make an impact. However, the post-int portionserval drag, and the long climax dilutes the impact of the interesting moments. The film's unique concept, with voice-overs from Shah Rukh Khan, Sanjeev Kumar, and Raaj Kumar, adds to its charm. Overall, RETURN OF HANUMAN is an enjoyable watch, despite its flaws.
