While we do not know who has done the voice-over for young Hanuman, what made us really excited was the news of Salman Khan, the Bajrangi Bhaijaan of Bollywood, doing voice-over for the grown-up Hanuman. And by the way, the actor retains the essence of being Salman Khan in this role too.
For all those who are a big Salman fans, you are in for a surprise as you hear Hanuman saying, “Ek baar joh maine commitment karli toh main phir apne aap ki bhi nahi sunta.” His character is kept under wraps but as the trailer ends, Salman says, “Hata sawan ki ghata, what about my katha? Kahaani jisme tha action, suspense and emotion. And kaise bana Hanuman.”

The trailer ends with the dialogue, “Jahaan na pohuche Superman, waha pohuche Hanuman,” which seems to be an attempt by the makers to attract Indian kids who are obsessed with Avengers and Justice League. What makes this trailer interesting is that it is not serving mythology to children in language they have hard time relating to, instead the feel of the film is very contemporary.
