Samantha Ruth Prabhu’s latest action-drama, Maa Inti Bangaaram, has achieved a massive opening in its first weekend alone. Directed by BV Nandini Reddy, the impressive debut has already surpassed the entire lifetime earnings of Samantha’s previous successful solo-led ventures.
Maa Inti Bangaaram is off to a great start. The film featuring Samantha Ruth Prabhu in the lead has not only beaten the lifetime collection of Oh! Baby (by the same team) but has also become Samantha’s highest-grossing solo earner.
Maa Inti Bangaaram is Samantha’s biggest solo hit
Maa Inti Bangaaram grossed over Rs 43 crore worldwide in its first weekend. Director BV Nandini Reddy shared the news on social media, writing, “For making this story your own, for getting everything we tried to say and for celebrating it ….. this is truly the victory of the audience (folded hands emojis)….. so so grateful. This win hits very different.”
The first weekend earnings of Maa Inti Bangaaram has battened the lifetime earning of Samantha’s previous solo grossers, Oh! Baby (2019) and Yashoda (2022). While Oh! Baby earned over Rs 38 crores, Yashoda earned Rs 32.13 crores in total.
This makes the action drama the actor’s highest-grossing solo-led film in her career.
Samantha’s highest-grossing films, led by a hero, are Mersal (2017) with Vijay and Rangasthalam (2018) with Ram Charan, both of which grossed over ₹200 crore worldwide.

However, Maa Into Bangaaram’s collections are far from South India’s highest-grossing female-led film, Lokah: Chapter 1 – Chandra (2025). Starring Kalyani Priyadarshan, the Malayalam film grossed over Rs 300 crore worldwide. Keerthy Suresh-led Mahanati (2018), which also starred Samantha, grossed approximately Rs 85 crore worldwide.
