Makers of Samantha Prabhu’s film Shaakuntalam announce that the film’s RELEASE DATE is POSTPONED; the flick is to be available in 3D
Samantha Prabhu has been making headlines time and again for an interesting line of upcoming projects she is part of. The actress is currently preparing for the India adaptation of Citadel which is directed by Raj & DK. Recently it was announced that Samantha’s most awaited project, Shaakuntalam which is a mythological film will be released on November 4. But today the makers of the film have announced a change in the release date. They have shared that the film's release date has been postponed and the new dates for the release will be out soon.
One of the reasons for the film’s release to get postponed is that the makers are now planning to make the film available in 3D. They took to social media and released a statement where it was written, “We aim to give a bigger experience with Shaakuntalam and immerse you in the World of Shaakuntalam, for which we as a team felt 3D would be a brilliant way. To facilitate this, we would be taking some time to put forth and so, will be unable to meet the earlier announced date of release. We thank the support and love showered upon us, from around the world, hoping for your support in this too! We will be announcing a new release date soon.”
The epic love romance between Shakuntala and King Dushyant is the theme of Shaakuntalam, which is touted as a delightful tale. The film's male lead will be played by Dev Mohan. The movie is written and directed by award-winning director Gunasekhar of Rudhramadevi fame and is based on the well-known Sanskrit play Abhijnana Shakuntalam by Kalidasa.
