The poster revealed Dev in a gallant avatar, wearing armour and riding on a horse. He has sported long hair, typical of ancient times. Dev can be spotted carrying a quiver full of arrows as he trudged in a dark, misty forest, lined with trees.

While one user wrote, “This King is going to rule the world,” another called Dev, “Oh! Charming.”
Shakuntalam is still in the post-production stage. Director Gunasekhar’s daughter Neelima Guna is producing the film under the banners of Gunaa Teamworks. Besides Samantha and Dev, the film also stars Aditi Balan, Kabir Duhan Singh, Madhoo, and Prakash Jha in titular roles.
Shakuntalam revolves around the enchanting love story between Shakuntala and King Dushyant. Shakuntalam will be released in five languages – Telegu, Tamil, Malayalam, and Hindi. Other details of the mythological drama are still kept under wraps.
