The exact age of Lord Hanuman is a topic of debate among scholars and historians, and there is no concrete information about it. However, there are several references in Hindu mythology that suggest his age. According to the Ramayana, Hanuman was born to Anjana and Kesari, who were both Vanaras, a tribe of anthropomorphic monkeys. Hanuman Jayanti is celebrated by devotees of Lord Hanuman across the globe to commemorate the birth of Hanuman, who is also the biggest devotee of Lord Rama. It is also known as Hanumath Jayanti, the day when Vanara God is said to have taken birth. It falls on the 15th day of Shukla Paksha in the month of Chaitra. This year it fell on March 31. The appearance of Hanuman dates back to almost 2.59 million years before. According to Agastya Samhita and Vayu Purana, the age of Hanuman is one kalpa, which is 4.32 billion years. For this reason, he is considered immortal.
