Samantha Ruth Prabhu, in an interview, says that  Allu Arjun is not involved in the career of his daughter, Allu Arha. The six-year-old girl makes her film debut with Shaakuntalam that features Samantha in the lead role. Jisshu Sengupta, Madhoo, Gautami, Dev Mohan, Aditi Balan, Sachin Khedekar and Mohan Babu will also be seen in the film

In the film directed by Gunasekhar, Allu Arha plays the role of Prince Bharat while Samantha essays the titular role of Shakuntala. The film is based on popular ancient India play Abhignyana Shakuntalam that was written by Kalidasa. The film will release on April 14.

Samantha told News18, 바카라For some reason, she is her own person and she decides her own things. I don바카라t think her father is involved and is going to involve himself in her career because it바카라s going to kind of take off differently after this movie. It바카라s something to look forward to definitely to. When I say families and children are going to connect with this film, apart from the main leads, there바카라s a child who has a beautiful role in this film so it바카라ll be a massive connect there."

Samantha had recently told the news agency PTI that she refused to work in Shaakuntalam initially, as she did 바카라not have the confidence바카라 to play a princess onscreen. 바카라I had first said no because I was doing The Family Man 2, in which I had a real role. Since childhood, Disney has been my favourite genre. Irrespective of whether I am happy or sad, I would watch Disney films. So, I did not have confidence that I could play Shakuntala, a princess, a symbol of perfection,바카라 she said.

Samantha was last seen in sci-fi thriller film Yashoda that received positive responses from the audience.
