Shaakuntalam is a film Samantha has pinned a lot of hopes on. She met the press and boldly handled them even when some of the journalists took jibes at her in a big way.
There was a special show that Dil Raju arranged for a select few. Some family audiences liked the film but all those who saw it in the media did not like it.
Messages have started to come out that Shaakuntalam is not that great. This negative talk has now scared both Dil Raju and Gunasekhar and they have canceled the further premiere shows.
A show was supposed to be aired to the media and a few other shows were going to be premiered. But all that has been canceled feeling the bad talk will hamper the film. Samantha is shouldering this film alone and there are not many other stars to carry this film on their shoulders.
