Samantha Ruth Prabhu's 'Shaakuntalam' Gets A New Release Date

Hyderabad, February 10 - Lady superstar Samantha Ruth Prabhu's long-awaited historical romantic drama film "Shaakuntalam" has been dealing with multiple delays as far as the release date is concerned. The movie being VFX heavy is taking longer than expected time in the post-production.

Directed by Gunasekhar, "Shaakuntalam" is now confirmed to hit big screens worldwide on April 14, 2023, in multiple languages. It was previously supposed to release on February 17 but was postponed as it was revealed that the makers were having difficulties in getting a wide release in other languages than the original Telugu.



Based on a popular play Abhigyanam Shakuntalam by Kalidasa, the film features Samantha in the titular role of Shakuntala and Dev Mohan as Dushyanta, the king of the Puru dynasty along with Mohan Babu, Jisshu Sengupta, Madhoo, Gautami, Aditi Balan and Ananya Nagalla in supporting roles. Allu Arjun's daughter Allu Arha marks her debut and plays Prince Bharata.

"Shaakuntalam" is produced by Neelima Guna under the banner of Gunaa Teamworks. The movie will clash with Chiranjeevi's "Bholaa Shankar" which is also slated for an April 14 release as of now.
