Adivi Sesh is gearing up to entertain audiences with the romantic action entertainer Dacoit. Mrunal Thakur plays the female lead. The film marks the directorial debut of cinematographer Shaniel Deo and the Tollywood debut of Anurag Kashyap.

Ahead of its release on April 10, Adivi Sesh interacted with fans on X under the hashtag #AskSesh. During the session, a fan asked when he would move away from the thriller genre. Sesh replied, “Dacoit is that shift.”

Responding to other fans, Sesh shared, “Dacoit is a love story wrapped in an action film. It’s about feelings, not thoughts. Love is the core emotion of Dacoit.” The film is backed by Supriya Yarlagadda and co-produced by Suniel Narang, with Annapurna Studios presenting it.
