Today, multiple films have hit the big screens in the Telugu states, with the notable ones being Bad Boy Karthik, Thimmarajupalli TV, and Papam Prathap. However, Adivi Sesh’s Dacoit, in its second weekend, has once again emerged as the first choice for Telugu movie lovers.

Dacoit has managed to lead the box office charts despite two of the above-mentioned films having solid promotions. The occupancies for Dacoit are much higher than the new releases in all major centers of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.

Why this is concerning:

While this news might leave Dacoit fans and makers happy, it’s actually a concerning development when a one-week-old release outshines the new releases. It suggests that the theatres might face trouble in the upcoming days when Dacoit’s run is exhausted.

Tollywood missed the golden opportunity of not releasing biggies for Summer 2026, and the next two-month period doesn’t look very exciting, with no huge money spinner insight.

Producer Supriya has addressed the criticism surrounding Anurag Kashyap’s casting in Dacoit. While a section of the audience felt his presence did not add much and fell short of expectations, Supriya offered a different perspective.

Speaking in an interview, she revealed that Anurag was intentionally chosen for his freshness and the raw intensity he brings on screen, especially for the film’s crucial climax portions.

According to her, the team wanted someone unconventional who could deliver a distinct impact rather than a familiar face and that’s why they chose Anurag.

Supriya emphasized that his casting was a creative decision aimed at enhancing the film’s emotional depth, even if it sparked mixed reactions among viewers.
