Veer Hanuman: Lord Hanuman saves Shree Ram by wearing the sacred ittar infused with harmful substances
Veer Hanuman, the mythological series that continues to touch hearts with its emotional storytelling, has reached a poignant milestone. The show stars Aan Tiwari as young Lord Hanuman, Sayli Salunkhe as Anjani, Arav Chowdharry as Kesari, Mahir Pandhi in dual roles as Bali and Sugreev, and Tanmay Nani as young Lord Ram.
The recent episodes featured the much-awaited first meeting between Lord Ram and Lord Hanuman — a moment filled with divine emotion and spiritual connection.
As Hanuman leaves Ayodhya reassured by Lord Ram's promise of Anjani's return, he finds his mother still missing in Kishkinda. This triggers confusion and heartbreak, leading him to question Ram's words and prompting a second visit. But it is during this time that a test of true devotion is secretly set in motion by Lord Indra (Meer Ali) and the Ashwini Kumars.
They infuse a sacred ittar (perfume) offering with a harmful substance, believing Hanuman still has lessons to learn about unconditional bhakti.
Before the ittar reaches Lord Ram, Hanuman instinctively senses danger and applies it on himself. Unaware he is being tested, Hanuman's act of selfless protection reveals his unwavering love. Taking the pain upon himself, he shields Lord Ram — proving that true devotion asks for no return.
Tarun Khanna, who plays Lord Shiva, reflected on the powerful moment, saying, 'Portraying Lord Shiva is both a responsibility and a blessing. This scene, where Hanuman unknowingly takes the pain upon himself, is not just powerful on screen — it moved me deeply as an actor and a devotee. I'm a staunch follower of both Hanuman ji and Mahadev. Scenes like these feel like Satsang to me. I never use glycerin — just the thought of Shiv ji and Hanuman ji brings tears to my eyes.
This moment truly captures the essence of real bhakti — selfless, unconditional, and pure.'
With Lord Shiva silently witnessing this act, Hanuman's spiritual journey takes a transformative leap — marking his evolution into the greatest devotee.

Hunar Hali Gandhi on playing Queen Kaikeyi in Veer Hanuman; says ‘Playing a mother to Lord Ram has been emotionally gratifying'
Actress Hunar Hali Gandhi has stepped into the majestic and emotionally charged role of Queen Kaikeyi in the mythological series Veer Hanuman, and the experience, she says, has been transformative. 'Playing a mother to Lord Ram has been emotionally gratifying,' Hunar shares, reflecting on her journey with the character. Portraying Kaikeyi—often remembered for sending Lord Ram into exile—was no small task. Hunar dove deep into the emotional complexities of the role, determined to break the one-dimensional perception of the queen. 'Kaikeyi is often seen through a one-dimensional lens, but she was much more than her one decision. She was loving and brave,' Hunar says. To prepare, she focused on embodying the grace, strength, and inner turmoil of a warrior queen. 'Mythology demands a sense of therav (pause), grace, and correctness in speech and movement. Fitness and poise were essential,' she explains. The emotional connection with Kaikeyi's intentions as both queen and mother came naturally. 'Absolutely. What resonates with me is that life often judges us for one mistake, forgetting the many good things we do,' Hunar says. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Beachfront Living in Mumbai at Sunteck Beach Residences Sunteck Realty Learn More Undo Her scenes with the young Lord Ram, filled with tenderness, offer audiences a fresh, heartfelt perspective on Kaikeyi's maternal love. Experiencing the grandeur of mythological storytelling on set was overwhelming in the best way. 'I was truly in awe,' she recalls. 'Kaikeyi's look and presence made me feel regal, strong, and connected from day one.' When asked what she admires most about Lord Hanuman, the central figure of the show, Hunar praises his timeless virtues. 'Lord Hanuman is the epitome of loyalty, selflessness, and humility. Sadly, these values are fading today. I've had close friendships fall apart unexpectedly—that's why I value honesty and loyalty so deeply.' Through Veer Hanuman, Hunar finds herself not only portraying a powerful queen, but also embracing deeper emotional truths about love, sacrifice, and redemption.

Fountain of fables: Aug date for light, sound show in Gurgaon?
Gurgaon: If all goes to plan, by Aug, Sector 29 might not just be known for its restaurants and bars but also for bringing stories to life through water, light and sound. As work on setting up the city's first-ever light and sound show nears completion at Leisure Valley Park in Sector 29, officials say the themes being considered for laser projections include Guru Dronacharya, the mighty Hanuman and elements from children's fantasy stories. The light and sound show — designed as a 10 to 15-minute immersive experience — is preparing to dazzle its visitors with a visual spectacle that blends mythology, fantasy and cutting-edge technology. A GMDA official says, "This will be the first project of its kind in the city. We are exploring several cultural and historical themes, but the final narrative for the laser show is yet to be finalised." While the final storyline is still being curated with inputs from the Indian Council of Historical Research and India Tourism Development Corporation, GMDA officials say the aim is to craft something that resonates across age groups — from children to history buffs. Spread across 25 acres, Leisure Valley Park has long been a haven for walkers, joggers and families. Now, many residents are hopeful it will become the city's cultural hotspot after sunset. With a modest seating capacity of around 100 people, the show is expected to draw more visitors once launched. Officials say the Rs 8.3-crore project also includes five years of operation and maintenance and could pave the way for similar cultural initiatives in other parts of the city. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo The show will use 3D projection mapping on a water screen, synchronised audio, laser visuals and high-pressure fountain nozzles to create a rich, multi-sensory narrative. Scheduled for Oct last year, the project was delayed by over eight months due to structural seepage detected in the fountain area — the very site where the projection screen was to be mounted.
