Impassioned director Gunasekhar is all set to carve yet another masterpiece with his dremel, the megaphone. Post the release of historical film Rudhramadevi, the director took his own time to launch his next offing Shakuntalam which is again a mythology mixed historical drama.
Top heroine Samantha's presence in the movie added more colour to the canvas. Well, having anticipated the fame she would earn with Shakuntala's character, Samantha has reportedly cut off her fee to Rs.50 lakh which makes a sum of Rs.2.5 crore to be taken by Samantha to home.
Samantha, however, hasn't offered that sort of discount to her next film to be directed by Nandini Reddy.
Shakuntalam is going to be a Pan Indian film which has the music to be scored by Manisharma. Neelima Guna is the producer.
