Samantha’s Shaakuntalam shoot was wrapped up last year and not much has been heard about the film ever since. The film’s shoot was completed in record time and director Gunasekhar seems to be quite happy with the output.
The makers of the film are all set to release the first look of the film and as per sources, it is going to be quite a feast. Samantha will be seen draping a white saree in this first look with the poster resembling a Ravi Verma painting. She will be flaunting her toned physique and the poster is going to be quite sensual.
Malayalam actress Aditi Balan, who earlier impressed the audience with her powerful role in Aruvi will be seen in a crucial role in Shaakuntalam as well.
The movie is based on the play Shakuntala written by Kalidasa and will be a pan-India release. The titular role is being played by Samantha while Dev Mohan will be playing the role of Dushyant. Mohan Babu will be essaying the character of Dhruva Maharshi.
This will be Gunasekhar’s first movie in 7 years after the 2015 period drama ‘Rudhramadevi’.
