SEASON 6 OF GRAPHIC INDIA’S HIT ANIMATED SHOW RANKS #6 ON ORMAX’S TOP 50 STREAMING SHOWS LIST FROM JAN- JUN 2025

What makes this feat truly notable, is that The Legend of Hanuman S6 is the only animated series to feature in the entire list. Standing tall in the TOP 10 the show shares space with Criminal Justice: A Family Matter, Paatal Lok S2, Squid Game S3, Panchayat S4 and ranking above titles like The Great Indian Kapil Show S3, The Royals, Black Warrant amongst high-profile live-action dramas and mainstream entertainment. The series also ranks as the #2 most-watched show on JioHotstar on the list, solidifying its place as one of the platform’s top-performing titles of the year.

Season 6 of the series, which debuted on April 11, 2025, has extended the franchise’s legacy, emerging as a pan-India phenomenon with strong performance in multiple languages including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, Marathi, Malayalam and Kannada. 

Since its debut, The Legend of Hanuman has consistently topped Ormax Media’s most watched streaming originals charts (debuting at #1 in Ormax’s weekly OTT rankings) and JioHotstar’s weekly rankings for every one of its six seasons—making it the first animated series in India to achieve such a run.  Season 5 reaching ~9.4 million viewers in its release window and Season 6 soaring to ~15.2 million over its first three weeks—clearly illustrating the series' escalating popularity.

Sharad Devarajan, Co-Creator, Producer, and Showrunner of The Legend of Hanuman, shared, "To see The Legend of Hanuman Season 6 rank #6 across all streaming platforms and as the only animated series in the top 50 is a profound moment for Indian animation. This milestone proves that audiences across India are embracing animation as a sophisticated storytelling medium, not just a kids' genre. When we first launched this series, our mission was to create a transcendent moment for Indian animation that would reshape how audiences perceive the medium—similar to how countries like Japan and Korea have always looked at animation as a medium and not a genre. The fact that Season 6 reached 15.2 million viewers and is standing alongside live-action giants like Criminal Justice, Panchayat and Paatal Lok, means that we've successfully moved animation from the margins to the mainstream. Hanuman's timeless story of courage, devotion, and inner strength continues to inspire billions, and through high-quality animation, we try to do justice to the visual grandeur and spiritual complexity that his mythic heroism deserves. This success belongs to the millions of fans who believed in our vision from day one and proves that India is ready for a golden age of animated storytelling.”

Season 6 is once again directed by Jeevan J. Kang and Navin John. Daman Baggan is back as Hanuman in the vocal cast, and Sharad Kelkar provides his epic voice acting for Ravan. With its amazing graphics, moving soundtrack, and intensely emotional narrative, the show keeps pushing the limits of storytelling.
