Gulshan Devaiah is all set to make his Telugu debut with ‘Maa Inti Bangaram’, starring alongside Samantha Ruth Prabhu and R. Madhavan. Having recently made his Kannada debut with ’Kantara’, Devaiah said he was thrilled to join the project.
Produced by Samantha’s Tralala Moving Pictures, the film’s official muhurat ceremony was held in Hyderabad. “I’ve been waiting for the right opportunity to work with Samantha, and ‘MIB’ came at the perfect time,” he shared.
While details of his role remain under wraps, Devaiah said he is “deep in preparation for MIB” and described it as “a pretty challenging part to play.” The 47-year-old actor added he hopes to meet audience expectations for his Telugu debut, saying, “I’m putting in all the effort and hope I don’t mess it up.”
Samantha Ruth Prabhu, who is both producing and playing the female lead in ‘Maa Inti Bangaram’, described the project as “deeply personal,” according to The Hollywood Reporter. She said the film explores themes of “love, belonging, and strength” and expressed excitement about reuniting with director Nandini Reddy. “As a producer, it’s thrilling to bring stories to life with honesty and warmth,” she added.
Devaiah was last seen in Rishab Shetty’s ‘Kantara: Chapter 1’, a prequel to the 2022 hit, where he played Kulshekara, a king determined to destroy the Kantara forests. He recently appeared in the web series ‘Perfect Family’ and will next headline Netflix’s Tamil series ‘Legacy’, directed by Charukesh Sekar and co-starring Nimisha Sajayan, Gautham Karthik, and Abhishek Banerjee.
