Finally, the makers of Shaakuntalam have released the trailer of the movie starring Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Dev Mohan. The trailer also introduces Allu Arjun's daughter Allu Arha in a pivotal role. Helmed by Gunasekhar, the trailer opens with birds carrying a baby, while in the background, we can hear a voiceover introducing the abandoned baby girl as Shakuntala (Samantha), born to Menaka and Vishwamithra. In the trailer, they reveal that Shakuntala is born with a purpose. In the next scene, the trailer introduces king Dushyant (Dev Mohan), who falls in love with Shakuntala when he sees her in the forest for the first time.

The rest of the trailer offers a glimpse of Shakuntala's hardship after the curse of Rishi Durvasa, which made king Dushyant forget his love for Shakuntala. Towards the end of the trailer, the makers introduced Allu Arjun's daughter Allu Arha as Shakuntala and Dushyant's son Bharat. In the scene, little Bharat is riding on a lion's back.
