Star heroine Samantha has wrapped up shooting for her part in Gunasekhar’s pan-India mythological magnum opus, Shaakuntalam. The actress took to Twitter and shared a few pictures with the film’s core team and posted a series of emotional tweets.

Sam said that Shaakuntalam will stay with her for the rest of her life. She added that, as a little girl, she believed in fairy tales and went on to call Gunasekhar her “fairy godfather” for making her dream a reality.

“When he narrated this film to me I was immediately transported to a most beautiful world. The world of Shaakuntalam..a world like no other.
But I was nervous and scared. Was it possible for us to create such beauty on celluloid?,” Sam tweeted.

The actress concluded saying that she has an immense feeling of love and gratitude to the “absolutely incredible human, Gunasekhar, for creating a world that has exceeded all her expectations. “The inner child in me is dancing with joy. Thankyou,” tweeted Sam.

Shaakuntalam features young Malayalam hero Dev Mohan as King Dushyant. The film also marks Allu Arjun’s doting little daughter Allu Arha’s silver screen debut. Neelima Guna and Dil Raju are jointly bankrolling this project.
