In just 8 days, Mahavatar Narsimha has become India's highest-grossing animated movie, earning ₹60.5 crores. Produced by Hombale Films and directed by Ashwin Kumar, the film brings to life the powerful story of Lord Vishnu’s Narasimha avatar from the Srimad Bhagavatam. It tells how Narasimha defeats the demon Hiranyakashipu to protect his devoted son, Prahlad.
The film’s beautiful animation and strong message have touched audiences of all ages. Its success shows that Indian viewers are embracing cultural and mythological stories on the big screen. Hombale Films celebrated the movie online, calling it “The divine roar that echoed across the nation.”
There’s also a deeper meaning behind the story. The Narasimha tale is linked to the Prahladpuri Temple in Multan, Pakistan, which was destroyed in 1992. Many viewers feel the film honors a lost heritage and keeps spiritual stories alive.
With voice actors like Aditya Raj Sharma, Haripriya Matta, and Priyanka Bhandari, and music by Sam C. S., the film has amazed not only children but also adults and spiritual fans. In a year when regional cinema is booming, Mahavatar Narsimha proves that animated stories with deep roots can still lead the way.
