Samantha Ruth Prabhu-starrer release 'Shaakuntalam’ postponed

The makers of "Shaakuntalam", the multilingual mythological drama starring Samantha Ruth Prabhu, on Thursday said they have decided to postpone the release of the film indefinitely.

The development comes a week after production house Sri Venkateswara Creations announced November 4 as the release date of the film.

In a statement shared on its official Twitter account, the Hyderabad-based banner said they have delayed the arrival of the film so that the audience is able to experience "Shaakuntalam" in the 3D format.

"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," Sri Venkateswara Creations said in the post. The new release date will be announced soon.

"Shaakuntalam" is presented by Dil Raju via Sri Venkateswara Creations in collaboration with Gunaa Teamworks and is produced by Neelima Guna. The film will be released in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada.
