Mumbai, April 2025: Sony SAB’s magnum opus Veer Hanuman continues to captivate audiences with its fresh and evocative retelling of the timeless legend of Lord Hanuman tracing the inspiring journey of young Maruti as he evolves into the mighty and revered Hanuman. Featuring Aan Tiwari as the young Maruti, Arav Chowdharry as Kesari, Sayli Salunkhe as Anjani, and Mahir Pandhi in the dual roles of Bali & Sugreev, Veer Hanuman airs every Monday to Saturday at 7:30 PM, delivering a mesmerizing blend of devotion and drama to viewers. In the recent episodes, the audience witnessed how Maruti received blessings from the Gods and started exploring his extraordinary powers.

In the upcoming episodes, viewers will see a dramatic turn of events as Bali tries to sabotage Maruti’s journey to mastering his siddhis. Bali invites Maruti and Kesari on a trip, secretly planning for a bull to attack Maruti. Although a saint attempts to calm the bull, he ultimately decides it must be killed, a task that Kesari must carry out. As the moment to execute the bull approaches, Maruti, displaying wisdom and empathy, confronts his father and refuses to allow the bull to be slaughtered. He argues that the bull's aggression stems from its suffering and that violence is not the solution. This places Kesari in a difficult position between his duty and his son’s emotional appeal.

Will a father’s word outweigh a son’s wisdom? Or will Maruti’s belief in empathy change Kesari’s heart? Stay tuned to witness this heart-stirring moment unfold. Arav Chowdharry who plays the role of Kesari in Veer Hanuman, said, “As a father, it’s never easy when your child stands against you—but it’s also one of the most defining moments in a parent’s journey. In this sequence, Kesari is faced with the painful truth that Maruti, his son, is standing firmly by his beliefs, even if it means going against his father. Portraying this emotional clash was incredibly powerful because it reflects how true growth begins when the younger generation starts thinking independently. It’s a reminder that even in disagreement, love and respect can remain.”
