Director Prasanth Varma, known for Hanuman, announced a sequel titled Jai Hanuman. However, the film has faced multiple delays. Initially, Prasanth Varma promised a 2025 release, but the shooting has yet to begin.
Rishab Shetty, the lead actor from Kantara, was cast for the role. However, his commitment to the Kantara prequel has caused delays. He is focused on completing that project before taking on any new roles. This has left Jai Hanuman in limbo.

Speculation suggests Rishab Shetty might join the shoot later this year. However, no confirmed timeline exists. His dual role as actor and director for Kantara 2 has further slowed progress.
Even if Rishab Shetty becomes available by the end of this year, shooting and post-production could push the release to 2026 or 2027. Additionally, Rishab Shetty’s role in The Pride of Bharat, playing Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, will keep him busy in 2026, adding more delays.
