Based on the classic Sanskrit play 'Abhignana Shaakuntalam' by Kalidasa, this movie is an epic love story of Shakuntala and Dushyant, where the two characters' destiny intertwines in a mesmerizing tale. With a talented cast and crew, the movie is a perfect blend of ancient wisdom and modern storytelling, making it a must-watch for audiences of all ages.

The lead role of Shakuntala is played by Samantha, a well-known actress with impeccable acting skills and ethereal beauty. She delivers a fine performance, bringing the character to life in a way that is both mesmerizing and relatable. However, the portrayal's authenticity is sometimes compromised by Samantha's image and body language, which do not match the character's description. Nonetheless, she carries the film on her shoulders with great finesse and skill.
