Her firm posture, intense expression and piercing gaze suggest she is ready to take on anyone who stands in her way, much like a lone wolf. The visual hints at an action-packed role for the actor. The poster also revealed that the film’s teaser will be released on January 9.
Fans were quick to react and showered the post with praise. One fan commented, “Finally, the wait is over.” Another wrote, “Lady boss is back.” A third fan said, “Mass comeback, Sam 🔥.” Others added comments like “Queen back to her business,” “Women power vibes,” and “Screaming!!

Samantha was last seen on the big screen in the 2023 film Kushi alongside Vijay Deverakonda. The film received mixed reviews from critics and performed moderately at the box office. After completing the shoot, Samantha took a break to focus on her health. She is now returning to the screen with Maa Inti Bangaaram, which also marks her first film after her marriage to filmmaker Raj Nidimoru.
