Adivi Sesh's spy thriller Dacoit is releasing on 19 March 2026, the same day when Dhurandhar The Revenge, sequel for Ranveer Singh's blockbuster film Dhurandhar is releasing.

Adivi Sesh speaking to scribes shared his thoughts on it. He said "Dhurandhar is clearly the &lsquo;movie of the country&rsquo; now... That said, I do believe today there's room for more than one film. For example, this Sankranti, three or four Telugu films have done really well. So I feel Ugadi, Eid and Sri Ram Navami coming together creates a beautiful opportunity, just like Sankranti, for more than one film to do amazingly well."

He added "Dacoit is an action film but it&rsquo;s also a love story. So think of it like an M&amp;M &ndash; the action is the shell but the heart of it is love; and I think that's what makes it special."

On Dacoit output, he said "We&rsquo;re on the last leg of shooting. But, there are certain moments on a set where you really feel that emotion coming through, and I've had quite a few of those on this film, especially shooting on top of a mountain for the huge, violent climax. It's been quite amazing. I&rsquo;m definitely optimistic."

On FX driven films not doing well in Telugu, he said "I disagree with that view. I feel anytime you tell a great story with soul, it does well, and if it needs VFX as an embellishment, so be it. But it has everything to do with whether it was a great story with soul or not. I think 2026 is going to be fascinating year for Telugu cinema."
