'The Legend Of Hanuman' is a mythological fantasy animated series that is being streamed in Disney+Hotstar. The animation show is a complete Indian production. It gained a wider reach and emerged as a milestone in Indian animation. Season 2 of the show based on the epic Ramayana was premiered on August 6.

'The Legend of Hanuman Season 2' recorded a massive 8.5 million views in 10 days of release. The web series is created by Sharad Devarajan, Jeevan J. Kang, and Charuvi P. Singhal. It was directed by Kang and Navin John, with Devarajan, Sarwat Chaddha, Ashwin Pande, and Arshad Syed as the lead writers. The 13-episode series is available in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Marathi, Bengali, Malayalam and Kannada on Disney+ Hotstar.

Sharad Kelkar, who is known for Dubbing the Hindi Voice of Baahubali in the Baahubali Franchise, has taken up the role of the narrator in this show. The team used Animatics for allowing actors to act instead of just dubbing to the animated work. The Character design work was done by the co-creator Charuvi Agrawal. The latest season takes Mahabali Hanuman's journey forward as the mighty warrior faces Ravan and his army.

The Legend Of Hanuman Season Two is creating strong waves in the competitive Indian streaming market, it has topped all other shows and movies on paid VOD services over the last week, says the Mumbai-based consultancy Ormax Media. Ormax’s figures estimate that the show has attracted 8.5 million viewers in its first 10 days, a sizable number that puts it right up there with the most successful streaming content in the country over the last year.

The company predicts that The Legend Of Hanuman Season Two will cross the 20 million mark soon, which is a feat only achieved by five series in total across the last 12 months. One of those five was The Legend Of Hanuman Season One, while the other four were all high-profile live-action series based on existing franchises. The Legend Of Hanuman is the first show on paid streaming platforms in India that had crossed the five million viewers mark, according to the company’s data.
