Actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu is currently busy promoting her upcoming film Maa Inti Bangaram, which is set for release on June 19. Directed by Nandini Reddy, the film is being produced under Samantha's production banner, with her husband Raj Nidimoru handling the production responsibilities.

As part of the film's promotions, Samantha recently took part in a fun rapid-fire interview. During the session, she was asked to choose between some of the most important projects from her career.

The first question was whether she preferred Ye Maaya Chesave or Eega. Without hesitation, Samantha picked Ye Maaya Chesave. She explained that the film played a huge role in shaping her career and opening doors to future opportunities.

Next, she was asked to choose between Oh! Baby and A Aa. Samantha selected Oh! Baby. When given a choice between Yashoda and Rangasthalam, she picked Rangasthalam.

The most talked-about moment came later in the interview. Samantha was first asked to choose between Citadel: Honey Bunny and The Family Man. She chose The Family Man. However, the next question was even more interesting: The Family Man or Ye Maaya Chesave?

Once again, Samantha selected Ye Maaya Chesave. Explaining her choice, she said, "If Ye Maaya Chesave had not happened, I would not be here today. That film completely changed my life."

Her answer quickly became a topic of discussion on social media. Fans pointed out that The Family Man is closely associated with Raj Nidimoru, while Ye Maaya Chesave featured her former husband Naga Chaitanya as the lead actor. Because of this connection, the video has gone viral online.
