Nandini Reddy’s Maa Inti Bangaram, starring Samantha Ruth Prabhu, is gearing up for release on June 19. The film marks the actor`s return to the silver screen after a hiatus of three years. Interestingly, even before the film hits screens, it has reportedly recovered its full production investment. Reportedly, producer Himank Duvvuru of Tralala Moving Pictures has confirmed the news.
Maa Inti Bangaram recovers full investment
According to Maa Inti Bangaram ’s team, the film had strong demand for theatrical and non-theatrical rights, which helped it achieve recovery. The interest among buyers across territories and platforms has been consistent and competitive, they stated in a press release. In fact, all deals have been allegedly confirmed and closed ahead of its release on June 19.
“For a female-led Telugu film in the current market, this is a strong commercial signal. The rights were packaged early, buyers were engaged well in advance, and every deal was closed with the intention of making it successful together with our distributors and buyers. We hope to keep up the faith they have shown in our movie,” the makers said.
According to a Hindustan Times report, producer Himank called the kind of response they’ve gotten gratifying, stating, “Recovering our full investment before the film even hits screens is a testament to the belief the market has placed in Maa Inti Bangaaram. For a female-led Telugu film, this kind of response from buyers across territories and platforms is truly gratifying.”
He also added that Tralala Moving Pictures has stood strong behind Maa Inti Bangaram’s story and Samantha’s ‘powerhouse presence’. “To see that conviction reflected commercially means everything,” he said.
Director Nandini also spoke about the upcoming film at a recent event and said, “I have done three films with Sam (Jabardasth in 2013, Oh! Baby in 2019 and Maa Inti Bangaram in 2026). Out of those, she brought two of them to me. She brought it with trust in me; I hope I have lived up to it. You will all see the Sam you like, times 10, on June 19. That’s a promise.”
