Ram Charan calls Samantha’s ‘Maa Inti Bangaaram’ a blockbuster as film opens big at box office

Actor Ram Charan has publicly celebrated the success of Samantha Ruth Prabhu’s latest release, Maa Inti Bangaaram, calling it a “blockbuster” as the film opened to a strong box office response.

Taking to Instagram, Ram Charan shared the official poster of the film and congratulated Samantha along with the entire team. In his message, the Peddi star said he had been hearing great things about the movie and expressed happiness over its successful start.

The gesture quickly caught fans’ attention, highlighting the strong bond and mutual respect between two of South cinema’s biggest stars.

Samantha was quick to acknowledge the support, replying warmly to Ram Charan and thanking him for his kind words.

Earlier in the day, Samantha had also shared her excitement over the film’s impressive first-day performance. According to reports, Maa Inti Bangaaram collected a worldwide gross of ₹13.15 crore on its opening day — a strong start for a female-led film.

In a heartfelt note on X, Samantha spoke about how meaningful it was to see audiences embracing cinema beyond traditional star-driven formulas.

She highlighted how encouraging it was to witness viewers supporting a film regardless of whether it was led by a male or female protagonist. For Samantha, the overwhelming response marked an important shift in audience mindset.

One of the most emotional points in her message was her appreciation for women turning up in large numbers to support the film in theatres — something she described as deeply heartening.

For years, theatrical openings have often been considered dependent on male audiences, but Samantha believes the success of Maa Inti Bangaaram reflects the evolving landscape of Indian cinema.

The film itself tells the gripping story of a woman entering a conservative household as a seemingly obedient daughter-in-law. But beneath her calm exterior lies a hidden past — one that threatens to surface and change everything.

As secrets unfold, she finds herself protecting the very family that continues to doubt her, creating a tense and emotional thriller built around trust, survival, and hidden truths.

Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Nandini Reddy, the film is produced by Raj Nidimoru, Samantha herself, and Himank Duvvuru.

The project also marks another milestone for Samantha as she continues to expand her presence beyond acting into film production.

With strong word-of-mouth, celebrity support, and a powerful opening at the box office, Maa Inti Bangaaram seems to be on track for a successful theatrical run.

For Samantha, this success isn’t just about numbers — it’s about proving that compelling stories, no matter who leads them, can connect with audiences in a big way.
