Adivi Sesh is gearing up for his next big project, Dacoit, following a string of pan-India hits. The film marks the directorial debut of Shaniel Deo, promising a dark, emotional blend of romance and revenge. Mrunal Thakur stars as the female lead, while acclaimed filmmaker Anurag Kashyap takes on a pivotal role, adding depth to the intense narrative.
Celebrating Adivi Sesh’s birthday today, the team released a striking poster that showcases Sesh in a raw, powerful persona handcuffed, holding a cigar, with a piercing stare. The bruises and rugged beard hint at a man shaped by violence, driven by unfinished battles. The visuals scream intensity, setting the tone for a dark, emotion driven thriller.
Tomorrow, the Dacoit teaser drops in both Telugu and Hindi. The Telugu version launches at an event in Hyderabad, while the Hindi trailer debuts in Mumbai, building anticipation for the film’s global release. Anurag Kashyap plays a crucial role as a cop, elevating the stakes in this gripping tale.
Produced by Supriya Yarlagadda, co-produced by Suniel Narang, and presented by Annapurna Studios, Dacoit is shaping up to be a must watch. Dacoit hits theaters worldwide on March 19, 2026, coinciding with Ugadi, Eid and Gudipadwa celebrations.
