The actor shared the news during the success meet of her recently released film ‘Maa Inti Bangaaram’, bringing an end to ongoing speculation about her pregnancy.

Speaking to the media at the event, Samantha said she plans to step away from acting temporarily.

“After ‘Maa Inti Bangaaram’, I will have to take a small break, given my condition. I will be on maternity leave. After that, I will be back with another film for my fans,” she said.

Rumours about her pregnancy had been circulating online for several days, particularly after videos from the film’s success celebrations went viral, with some fans speculating about a baby bump.

The film is directed by Nandini Reddy and marks her reunion with Samantha after their 2019 hit ‘Oh! Baby’. The screenplay has been written by Raj Nidimoru and Vasanth Maringanti.

‘Maa Inti Bangaaram’ also features Gulshan Devaiah, Diganth Manchale, Gautami Tadimalla, Sreemukhi, Manjusha, and Srinivas Gavireddy in key roles.
