Speaking on the occasion, Shri Aushim Khetrapal said, “Twenty-six years ago, we made ‘Shirdi Sai Baba’, a film based on the life of Shirdi Sai Baba, with the intention of creating awareness about his message and his vision of public welfare. Today, I am happy to see that the makers and team of ‘Hanuman Ansh’ have also created a film that inspires spiritual and religious consciousness among people. It is a deeply spiritual experience for me to honour the entire team of ‘Hanuman Ansh’ with the Citation of Honour. Cinema is not only a medium of entertainment; it can also play an important role in creating awareness about our spiritual and cultural heritage.” Shri Vijay Goel said, “A film like ‘Hanuman Ansh’ certainly contributes towards creating religious and spiritual consciousness. The fact that the entire team is being honoured today at Gandhi Smriti makes this occasion even more meaningful. It is encouraging to see filmmakers and artists bringing stories inspired by India’s spiritual and cultural traditions to audiences through cinema.” The felicitation recognised the collective efforts of the ‘Hanuman Ansh’ team in bringing a spiritually inspired story to the screen. Held at the historic Gandhi Smriti, the ceremony brought together filmmakers, cultural representatives and dignitaries in support of cinema that engages with India’s spiritual and cultural heritage. The event concluded with Shri Aushim Khetrapal congratulating the team and extending his best wishes for the film.
