Actor Samantha Ruth Prabhu looks like bappu Bomma in her latest Instagram post. She shared the pictures promoting upcoming film Maa Inti Bangaaram.




In the picture, Samantha is seen wearing a soft peach-colored saree sitting gracefully on the floor. Near her, there is a small Bappu picture book.




In her caption, Samantha explained the story behind the saree. She said the saree was made by skilled weavers from Venkatagiri. These weavers have been continuing their craft for many generations. Samantha also mentioned Maribel who works closely with these weavers through her brand Sarasatex tiles helping keep this traditional art alive.




She also gave credit to everyone involved in creating her look. The saree was from Sarasatex tiles, jewellery from Divas Mantra, styling by Open House Studio, and the styling team included Pooja Karanam. Makeup was done by Makeup and Hair by Jill, hair styling by Aarthi Shanmukhi, photography by Pranav Foto and art direction by Lakshmi.

This Instagram post also connects well with her film Maa Inti Bangaaram. Recently, the makers released the first song from the movie titled Thassadiya. It is a lively wedding song full of energy and celebration. The song is composed by Santhosh Narayanan, written by Rahman, and sung by Chinmayi Sripada and Punya Selva. Samantha’s dance and screen presence in the song have already impressed fans.

Maa Inti Bangaaram is directed by Nandini Reddy, who is working again with Samantha after their successful film Oh! Baby. The movie is a mix of family drama, action, and comedy. Samantha is not just acting in the film but is also one of the producers. The film also stars Diganth, Gulshan Devaiah, Sreemukhi, Gautami, and others in important roles.

The film is set to release on May 15, and expectations are quite high.
