Arjun added that he’s glad his daughter was making her debut in Samantha’s movie.
“I had an altogether different journey with Samantha and am happy to watch Arha debut with her movie. My best wishes to the entire Cast & Crew of Shakuntalam (sic).”
Tipped to be a big-budget film, the project is being directed by Gunasekhar, who is best known for his epic period drama Rudhramadevi (2015), which starred Anushka Shetty.
Last year, speaking at the launch of the movie recently, Samantha said that this would be her dream project.
Shooting for the film commenced on Wednesday in Hyderabad.
