The action drama revolves around a woman who tries to protect her new family from dangerous figures connected to her past while keeping her true identity hidden. The cast also features Gulshan Devaiah, Diganth Manchale, Gautami, Sreemukhi and Anand in key roles.</p>

Maa Inti Bangaaram has crossed the Rs 100 crore mark worldwide and Samantha Ruth Prabhu celebrated the moment with her fans through a heartfelt post. Read on to know more.

Samantha Ruth Prabhu's Maa Inti Bangaaram has achieved a major milestone at the box office. The actress's latest release has crossed the Rs 100 crore mark worldwide, and it has emerged as the first female-led Telugu film to enter the coveted Rs 100 crore club. To celebrate the success of the film, Samantha shared an emotional message on social media alongside a candid video. Samantha celebrates Maa Inti Bangaaram's success Taking to her Instagram, she posted a clip that showed the exact moment filmmaker Raj Nidimoru surprised her with the news. In the now viral clip, Raj approaches the actor with an iPad and asks, "Do you want to see something cool?" After unlocking the device, Samantha is filled with joy to see the poster announcing the film's worldwide collection. "We did 100 crores," she said. Also Read: Samantha Ruth Prabhu's Maa Inti Bangaaram sequel in works, Raj Nidimoru confirms Samantha shares a heartfelt note Alongside the video, Samantha wrote, "Before the release of Maa Inti Bangaram, I remember obsessing over one thing: Were people even talking about the film? Were the assets we were putting out reaching people? Did they know this film existed?" She further added, "My friend asked, 'What do you think about Maa Inti Bangaram? How much do you think it'll open at?' The exhibitor didn't hesitate. 'Why would anyone watch a heroine film? If she's in a big hero's film, fine. People know her for the glamour. But a film led by a heroine? Who will come? Nobody.' That was the perception before Maa Inti Bangaram released." Also Read: Samantha’s Maa Inti Bangaaram becomes her highest-grossing solo film, crosses Oh! Baby's lifetime earning According to Samantha, "I think real change only happens when someone is willing to take a risk. Most of the time, those risks don't pay off. Every once in a while, they do. For us, this one did. And I hope this is the beginning of something bigger. I hope that the next time someone calls an exhibitor in a B or C centre and asks about a female-led film, the answer isn't an instant no. Maybe it's, 'Let's see.' Because the truth is, we will never really know." Also Read: Maa Inti Bangaaram director confirms Samantha Ruth Prabhu is expecting her first child with Raj Nidimoru

In the first one, she was seen posing beside him as the two smiled for the camera. In another photograph, the two were seen chatting&nbsp;</p><p>Samantha shared a long note along with the photos and said, “When I landed in Chennai today, I felt this immense sense of happiness. I was going to meet our CM. I’ve always felt that Vijay sir was never meant to be just a hero on screen. His energy, his presence, and the way people respond to him always felt like he was meant for something bigger."</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>She added, “What inspires me most is the courage it takes to step into a completely new arena. To leave behind what you have already mastered and take on a challenge where the stakes are so much higher. Not because it is easy, but because you believe you can make a difference.”</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Samantha also predicted that Vijay will continue to surprise people even now, and said, “I think all of us, at some point in our lives, are called to do more. To look beyond ourselves and ask how we can contribute. Very few people actually answer that call. I have a feeling Vijay sir will surprise even the people who already believe in him. Not because of the position he holds, but because of the intent with which he approaches it. Wishing him strength, wisdom and the courage to stay the course. And for every young person watching, may this be a reminder that life can be so much bigger than the dream you started with.”</p>

<h2>Vijay in the league of MTR and NT Rama Rao</h2><p>As Vijay was sworn in as the CM of Tamil Nadu in May, he joined the league of iconic actors like NT Rama Rao, MG Ramachandran, and J Jayalalithaa who were all big stars on celluloid and then became Chief Ministers of a state.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Actor Vijay, who announced his entry into politics in February 2024 and launched the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) party, actively toured Tamil Nadu ahead of the 2026 assembly elections.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Vijay’s final film, <i>Jana Nayagan</i>, is currently awaiting CBFC clearance.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>On the other hand, Samantha is gearing up for the release of <i>Maa Inti Bangaram</i> on June 19, marking her first theatrical outing since her 2023 films <i>Shaakuntalam</i> and <i>Kushi</i>.</p>

Ahead of her film Maa Inti Bangaram's theatrical release, actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu met up with her former co-star and Tamil Nadu CM Vijay in Chennai. Samantha shared photos of their meet up and penned a warm note for the CM. 

Samantha Ruth Prabhu is busy promoting her upcoming Telugu film Maa Inti Bangaram. The actress was in Chennai to promote her film when she made a pit stop to meet Tamil Nadu’s new Chief Minister Vijay. Taking to her Instagram account on Wednesday, Samantha posted a long note praising her former co-star and now CM of Tamil Nadu, Vijay. Samantha meets Vijay Samantha posted two photos with Vijay. In the first one, she was seen posing beside him as the two smiled for the camera. In another photograph, the two were seen chatting Samantha shared a long note along with the photos and said, “When I landed in Chennai today, I felt this immense sense of happiness. I was going to meet our CM. I’ve always felt that Vijay sir was never meant to be just a hero on screen. His energy, his presence, and the way people respond to him always felt like he was meant for something bigger." She added, “What inspires me most is the courage it takes to step into a completely new arena. To leave behind what you have already mastered and take on a challenge where the stakes are so much higher. Not because it is easy, but because you believe you can make a difference.” Samantha also predicted that Vijay will continue to surprise people even now, and said, “I think all of us, at some point in our lives, are called to do more. To look beyond ourselves and ask how we can contribute. Very few people actually answer that call. I have a feeling Vijay sir will surprise even the people who already believe in him. Not because of the position he holds, but because of the intent with which he approaches it. Wishing him strength, wisdom and the courage to stay the course. And for every young person watching, may this be a reminder that life can be so much bigger than the dream you started with.”

"Praise doesn’t move me. Trolls don’t either. But if you bring negativity into my home, I will block you,” she shared. "The same way I keep my space clean, I keep this page clean.

She also spoke about FOMO (fear of missing out), especially with the dominance of short-form content. "This is something I am scared of. I was telling Raj [Nidimoru] that when I was a child, I could set a timetable to study and just follow it, no distractions. I don't know if I have the same muscle anymore. The FOMO that reels create is wild," she said. "So I lock my Instagram, practice long-format books, one-hour podcasts and deliberately choose boredom. We all could use some rules."
