About Maa Inti Bangaaram

Maa Inti Bangaaram follows a woman, who arrives in a traditional household as the new daughter-in-law. She’s composed and obedient but the family doesn’t know that she’s hiding something.

When the past refuses to stay buried, she must protect the very people who don’t fully trust her, without letting them see who she really is.

Produced by Raj Nidimoru, Samantha and Himank Duvvuru, the film is directed by Nandini Reddy.
