Hanuman Ansh is an inspirational film based on the life, philosophy and teachings of Neem Karoli Baba, the revered saint closely associated with Kainchi Dham in Nainital, Uttarakhand. His devotees regard him as an embodiment of Lord Hanuman.

Anupriya Nagar’s research for the film included visits to Kainchi Dham and other ashrams, along with accounts and experiences shared by devotees. Through the project, she hopes to encourage young people to connect with Sanatan values, seek mental peace and practise selfless service.

Bharat Express is the film’s media partner, and Anupriya Nagar has acknowledged Bharat Express CMD Upendrra Rai for his support and encouragement.

At 21, Anupriya Nagar aims to bring India’s spiritual traditions to contemporary audiences through filmmaking, connecting the teachings of Neem Karoli Baba with younger generations and viewers worldwide.
