Post Shaakuntalam's failure, here's what Samantha Ruth Prabhu is planning for her future

Shaakuntalam was billed as a pan-Indian film, which starred Samantha Ruth Prabhu and told the epic story of Shakuntala and King Dushyant. Despite a budget of over Rs 60 crore, the film only grossed roughly Rs 10 crore at the box office. According to film industry experts, Samantha has chosen to avoid similar movies in the future. Trolls on social media commented on Samantha's loss of celebrity status, and one producer, Chitti Babu, informed an online media station that Samantha's career was "finished."

Samantha put out a quote from the Bhagavad Gita on her social media on April 17 that said, 'Karmanye vadhika raste, Ma phaleshu kadachana, Ma karma phala he tur bhuh, Ma te sangotsva karmani'. Her fans and netizens thought this was befitting reply to those trying to write her off.
