Mumbai: Sony SAB is set to bring audiences an extraordinary showcase of Lord Hanuman’s life with ‘Veer Hanuman’, exploring the lesser-known journey of young Maruti as he discovers his true purpose and prepares for his divine destiny. Rooted in faith and devotion, the show, created by Swastik Productions premieres on 11th March, and will air every Monday to Saturday at 7.30 PM, offering viewers an earnest portrayal of his early years and how he emerges as a shining example of loyalty and strength. With a powerful narrative and rich storytelling, the show is set to bring one of India’s most revered Gods to life for a new generation of viewers.
 
Starring Aan Tiwari in the role of young Lord Hanuman, the show also features Sayli Salunkhe as Anjani, Arav Chowdharry as Kesari, and Mahir Pandhi in the powerful dual role of Bali and Sugreev. The show highlights Bal Hanuman’s innocence, his growing awareness of his divine powers, and the adversities he must overcome to fulfill his destiny. Lord Hanuman’s story continues to be a guiding force for millions, even today. This is a timeless saga of courage, selflessness, and the ultimate triumph of good over evil.
 
Ajay Bhalwankar, Business Head of Sony SAB said, “At Sony SAB, we take pride in bringing stories that connect deeply with audiences and the story of Lord Hanuman has been cherished for generations. We are thrilled to present it in a way that beautifully captures the life of this revered God while making it engaging for today’s viewers. His journey is one of immense strength and faith, and we hope this show will inspire and connect with families across India. As a channel that has always promoted cohesive family viewing, we believe that this show will provide a unique opportunity for families to come together and experience the magic of this epic tale.
 
Siddharth Kumar Tewary, Founder & Chief Creative, Swastik Productions said, Hanuman is not just a warrior; he is a feeling—of faith, of courage, of limitless strength. Veer Hanuman is a journey into his soul, beyond the stories we’ve heard, to the essence of what makes him eternal. This is not just about retelling his story; it’s about experiencing the force of Hanuman in a way that stays with you, moves you, and awakens something within. Because Hanuman is not just a deity—he is a reminder of what we can become when we surrender to something greater than ourselves.”
 
Arav Chowdharry, playing the role of Kesari said, “Portraying Kesari in Veer Hanuman is an incredible honor and a deeply fulfilling experience. Kesari is not just a warrior king but a devoted father whose love, wisdom, and unwavering faith helped shape the path of one of the greatest divine beings in our mythology. While we all know the incredible feats of Lord Hanuman, Veer Hanuman delves into the lesser-known journey of young Maruti—his early years, his boundless energy, and his discovery of his true purpose as he prepares for his divine destiny. I hope the audience connects with this beautiful story of faith, strength, and destiny, and that Veer Hanuman leaves a lasting impact on their hearts.”
