Based on Kalidasa’s internationally acclaimed Sanskrit play Abhijnana Shakuntalam, the film stars Samantha in the titular character and actor Dev Mohan as King Dushyant from Mahabharata. Mission Majnu, on the other hand, is a spy thriller inspired by true events. The film will release on Netflix on January 20 this year.

Meanwhile, in a recent interview, the Pushpa actress expressed her love for Samantha and said that she is extremely possessive towards her. Speaking with Gulte, Rashmika said, “Sammy is a wonderful lady. She’s graceful and beautiful at heart. She’s a person that I always want to protect. I am very possessive mama when it comes to her.” Rashmika also spoke about Samantha’s Myositis diagnosis. She said, “I came to know about Sam’s condition when she put it out. I didn’t know if she wanted to talk about something before the world knew. I only wish her the best. I’ve always admired her and looked up to her. When you look up to someone, you would want them to win all the battles. It’s the same for me. I am going to be this person who’s going to be extremely possessive of her. She’s a woman of utmost care, grace and love. I want the world to have only love for her.”

Besides Shaakuntalam, Samantha will also be seen in Kushi with Vijay Deverakonda. Rashmika, on the other hand, has Varisu, Animal and Pushpa 2 in the pipeline.
