Nandini Reddy's Maa Inti Bangaaram, starring Samantha Ruth Prabhu, has crossed ₹35 crore in its first week of release. The film, released on June 19, has seen a steady collection of ₹2.65 crore net on Thursday, taking its one-week domestic total to ₹35.85 crore.
The film's performance is a significant milestone for Samantha, marking her highest-grossing solo lead film to date. Maa Inti Bangaaram has outperformed its Tamil version, Engal Thangam, and is on its way to beat the lifetime collections of Dacoit: A Love Story and Kara.
Directed by Nandini, the film tells the story of Swarna, alias Jhansi, who must navigate her husband's family and a threatening figure from her past. With positive reviews and a strong opening, Maa Inti Bangaaram remains a contender for crossing the ₹100 crore mark.
