Anupama Chopra Film Companion Shaankuntalam should have been a dazzling tale of dharma and karma, love and longing. Instead, it’s a crashing bore. Apr 14, 2023 Full Review Carla Hay Culture Mix The best thing that can be said about the bloated fantasy drama Shaakuntalam is that the costumes are eye-catching. Everything thing else is terrible, including the acting and fake-looking visual effects. It's too much money spent on hackneyed filmmaking. Apr 23, 2023 Full Review Dhaval Roy The Times of India Shaakuntalam’s cinematic experience will be best enjoyed in theatres. The opulent sets, elaborate war sequences, and ostentatious costumes will transport you to the abundant world of mythicism. Rated: 3/5 Apr 21, 2023 Full Review Devesh Sharma Filmfare Instead of going for a dubbed version, the director should have released the film all over India with subtitles. At least then the singularity of the film wouldn’t have been trifled with. Rated: 2.5/5 Apr 15, 2023 Full Review Nandini Ramnath Scroll.in With little attention paid to character development, the performances are as plasticky as the film’s look.
