Hanuman is a 2005 Indian animated feature film directed by V. G. Samant and produced by Shailendra Singh at Percept Picture Company[2] and Silvertoons. The animated film dramatizes the life of its title character, Hanuman, a Hindu deity. The animation was created by Silvertoons. It is India's first full-length, fully animated feature film to be released theatrically[3] (there were several earlier ones made by Pentamedia Graphics). The film popularised animation and kickstarted the growth of India's animation industry.[4]

The Telugu version was shown by Sharath Marar under the banner of Hyderabad Innovatives.
