Adivi Sesh, who has carved a niche for himself with a consistent streak of successful films, is currently working on two highly anticipated projects, one of which is Dacoit. The film is particularly noteworthy as it marks the directorial debut of Shaneil Deo, who brings a fresh vision to the screen. Adding to the excitement is the casting of Mrunal Thakur as the female lead, promising a compelling on-screen pairing. The presence of anurag kashyap in a powerful, witty role as a police inspector adds a layer of intensity and intrigue to the film, raising expectations for an engaging narrative filled with action and layered characters.
The buzz around Dacoit has only grown stronger with the announcement of a massive music rights deal. Bheems Ceciroleo, who is currently in top form musically, is scoring the soundtrack, and his involvement has only added value to the project. In a landmark development, sony music has acquired the telugu and hindi audio rights for a staggering ₹8 crore. This is the biggest audio rights deal in Adivi Sesh’s career so far, a clear indicator of his rising stardom and growing market in both the telugu and hindi film industries. The investment reflects not only the expectations surrounding the music but also the overall appeal and reach of the film.

Further elevating the excitement, the makers have announced that a "fire glimpse" from the film will be unveiled on May 26th, building anticipation among fans. Produced by supriya yarlagadda and Suniel Narang, with annapurna studios backing the project, Dacoit is being simultaneously shot in telugu and hindi, positioning it as a true pan-India release. This bilingual approach, combined with a strong creative team and star-studded cast, signals the film’s ambition to capture a broad audience across regions. As Sesh continues his upward trajectory in indian cinema, Dacoit appears poised to further solidify his reputation as a bankable and versatile actor.
