In overseas markets, the movie collected around 700K dollars on day one including premieres. That number is more than some big recent releases, which shows Samantha’s star power. The film got mixed to positive reviews from fans and critics. This is her first big lead role after marrying filmmaker Raj Nidimoru in December 2025.

At the moment, the pregnancy news remains unconfirmed from Samantha or Raj. The actress is currently focused on the success of her film which is doing well in theatres. If the rumors turn out to be true, it would be a happy moment for the couple and their fans. For now, Samantha is receiving love for her performance and for taking on new challenges in her career.
