Samantha is headlining the film Shaakunthalam next and the film will hit the cinemas next month. The pretty actress took to her Instagram profile to share a shared video of her pet dog along with a throwback post of her which was clicked during the Shaakunthalaml shooting.

In the video shared by her, she was seen talking to her pet dog Sasha about grace and posture. Sasha was seen laying on its back and Samatha said, she needed training for grace and posture as she trained for Shaakunthalam or even more.

Recently, the Yashoda actress opened up about the toughest part of the film through an Instagram post that read, "The toughest part of #Shakuntalam was maintaining grace and posture while walking, talking, running… even crying! And grace is sooo not my thing...Had to take training sessions for it! Should have taken Sasha along… clearly so not her thing either! #LikeMotherLikeDaughter."

Shaakuntalam is a cinematic adaptation of the popular Indian play Shakuntala by Kalidasa, the famous love story of Dushyanta, and Shakuntala. While Samantha will essay the titular role, Dev Mohan will be seen as Dushyanta, the king of Puru Dynasty. Mohan Babu, Sachin Khedekar, Gautami, Aditi Balan, Ananya Nagalla, and Varshini Sounderajan will also perform prominent roles in the forthcoming drama, along with others.

Shaakuntalam is slated to be released on 17th February this year. While the film was initially scheduled to release on 4th November 2022, it got postponed as the makers wanted to make the movie bigger and release it in 3D.
