Shaakuntalam
Dil Raju: ‘Shaakuntalam‘ is a movie produced by Neelima Guna under the Guna teamwork banner. Famous producer ‘Dil’ Raju acted as presenter for this film and supervised the production affairs. This movie directed by Gunasekhar is going to release on April 14 in five languages. The theatrical trailer launch of the movie ‘Shaakuntalam‘ in which Samantha played the title role was held on the big screen at Prasads on Tuesday. On this occasion, the 3D version trailer was shown to the audience as well as the media.
Chaitanyaprasad, who wrote the songs in the film, said that he was happy to get the opportunity to write songs for Gunasekhar’s film, and he wrote two wonderful songs in it. Praveen Pudi, who edited this film, thanked the director and producers for their cooperation. Lyricist Burra Saimadhav said that he worked for the first time in the production of ‘Dil Raju’, he also gave him the opportunity to work on Ram Charan’s ‘Game Changer‘, and Gunasekhar’s visual poetry of Kalidasa Virachita’s ‘Sakunthalam’. Producer Neelima Guna said that the idea of bringing this film in 3D came from Dill Raju and it was because of him that the production went smoothly.
Presenters of the film, Dil Raju said, ‘He did not come into this project to give Gunasekhar a hand as everyone thinks, but he came for his own selfishness’. Fifty films have been produced so far, out of which V.F.X. He said that he did not have much opportunity and also he had not produced a Pan India level movie so far, so he became a partner in the production of this film to get those two experiences. After watching the rushes of this movie, his brother Sirish suggested that it would be better to convert it into 3D, and we felt that 3D would be an additional qualification for this movie, which will come with children as well as families.
He asked them to support ‘Shakunthalam’ as they have supported the films ‘Varasudu, Balagam’ from their banner this year. Gunasekhar wrote that he was not under any pressure in terms of production due to the presence of a maker like ‘Dil’ Raju, but he focused on filmmaking to the full extent. Allu Arjun, who played the role of Gona Ganna Reddy in Rudramadevi earlier, said that he has sent his daughter Arha to play Chinnari Bharata in the film.

Samantha did not attend!
The organizers said that Samantha will attend the launch of the 3D theatrical trailer of ‘Sakunthalam’. With that, Prasad’s big screen was crowded an hour before the trailer launch. Most of them came to see Samantha! But they were all disappointed when they came to know that Samantha was not attending the event.
When ‘Dil’ Raju started his speech, ‘Sir… Why didn’t Samantha come? Some commented that they deceived us by saying that she would come. King ‘Dil’ had to do many tricks to pacify them. At one point ‘Dil’ Raju lost his patience… ‘There is Samantha’s manager. Ask him.’ Producer Neelima Guna confirmed that Samantha could not come to the program due to some reasons, but her whole heart is here. Gunasekhar jokingly commented that Samantha is not you…I am also missing you because you are not coming here.
