Samantha is busy promoting her upcoming film Maa Inti Bangaaram and is currently in Chennai for the promotions of its Tamil version, Engal Thangam.
Directed by Nandini Reddy and the film is generating much good buzz everywhere. During her Chennai visit Samantha met Tamil Nadu C.M Vijay and later shared a photo with him which is good to see.
She also posted a heartfelt note expressing her great admiration for Vijay praising his courage to move beyond cinema and take on the responsibility of public service in a great way.
Samantha said she always believed Vijay was destined for something much bigger because of his strong presence and the love he receives from people.
Sam and Vijay have previously worked together in blockbuster films such as Kaththi, Theri and Mersal, becoming one of Tamil cinema’s popular on-screen pairs.
When I landed in Chennai today, I felt this immense sense of happiness. I was going to meet our CM.
I’ve always felt that Vijay sir was never meant to be just a hero on screen. His energy, his presence, and the way people respond to him always felt like he was meant for something… pic.twitter.com/I2QQIrrYlF— Samantha (@Samanthaprabhu2) June 17, 2026
