Star actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu is promoting her upcoming release ‘Shaakunthalam’ in full force. She is interacting with the press and giving interviews to various media outlets as well. She is making sure that this mythological drama gets all the buzz ahead of the release this Friday.
In one of her interviews, she shared about the five crazy things she did for ‘Shaakunthalam’. The first one is about her floral jewellery. She said, “I have a flower allergy but had to wear flower ornaments on my arms and on my neck. I shot all day with no complaints. And then in the evening when I took it out, the imprint of the flowers was all over my arm. I had, like, a flower tattoo on my arm for six months. I thought it was permanent because no one was able to fix it. So, I would put makeup on top of that for like, six months and then finally it went away. So, yeah, crazy.”
The next thing she said was, “I dubbed for three languages in the movie. I really don’t know how other actors do it. My gosh, it is tough. I was saying the dialogue in my sleep. I hope I’ve done a good enough job.”
The third one on list is an incident with a rabbit. She stated, “I got bit by a rabbit on the sets of Shaakuntalam. They are not so cute, apparently.”
After that, she added, “Neeta Lulla (celebrated costume designer) ma’am had made some of the most beautiful costumes for Shaakuntalam. There was this song where I had to wear a beautiful lehenga. She had kept dancing in mind and hence, made some lehengas lighter and some heavier, like 30 kgs kind of heavy. But what was meant to be for the song, didn’t really happen, and I ended up wearing a 30 kg lehenga for the dance.”
She added, “And when I was spinning, the lehenga would take me out of the frame and the dance master Raju sir would ask, ‘Why can’t you stay in the frame?’ I was like, I am trying, but the lehenga is taking me out of the frame. So, when I would spin, the lehenga would push me out of the frame. So, we had to do like 10 to 15 takes for that. That was crazy.”
The last crazy thing is that she used a wig for ‘Shaakunthalam’ and the hair we see in the movie is not real.
