The first glimpse of the highly anticipated film "Dacoit," starring Adivi Sesh and Mrunal Thakur, has been released, offering a thrilling sneak peek into this action drama. The film is slated for a pan-India theatrical release on December 25, 2025, promising a Christmas treat for moviegoers.

The glimpse, shared by Mrunal Thakur on her Instagram, offers a blend of action, emotion, and drama, highlighting the fiery chemistry between Sesh and Mrunal. Adivi Sesh appears to be consumed by revenge, targeting Mrunal's character, his former girlfriend, who betrayed him. The tagline accompanying the video, "An explosion of guns & roses… betrayal & trust… and above all, Love & Loss. Witness a wicked FIRE between two EXES," sets the stage for a gripping narrative.

Directed by Shaneil Deo, "Dacoit" is a bilingual film being shot simultaneously in Telugu and Hindi. The story revolves around an angry convict, played by Adivi Sesh, seeking vengeance against his ex-girlfriend, portrayed by Mrunal Thakur, who betrayed him. The film also features Anurag Kashyap in a pivotal role as Inspector Swamy, a "fearless inspector who is a staunch Ayyappa devotee, with no tolerance for corruption. Sharp-minded, witty, and sarcastic, his character adds depth to a gripping narrative filled with action, emotion, and drama." Other notable actors in the cast include Prakash Raj, Sunil, Atul Kulkarni, Zayn Marie Khan, and Kamakshi Bhaskarla.

The film is produced by Supriya Yarlagadda and Suniel Narang, with music by Bheems Ceciroleo. "Dacoit" marks Shaneil Deo's directorial debut, after his previous work as the director of photography for Adivi Sesh's films "Kshanam" and "Goodachari".

Anurag Kashyap described his role as both fun and challenging, noting the complexities of portraying a police officer who is an Ayyappa devotee. He is particularly enjoying the challenge of delivering the same impact in both Hindi and Telugu.

The release of "Dacoit" is highly anticipated, particularly as Adivi Sesh has mentioned that he will have three film releases in 2025. Mrunal Thakur also has several projects in the pipeline, including "Pooja Meri Jaan," "Vishwambara," and "Son of Sardaar 2."

The first glimpse of "Dacoit" has generated significant buzz, with fans eagerly awaiting the film's release. The combination of Adivi Sesh and Mrunal Thakur's on-screen chemistry, coupled with Anurag Kashyap's compelling character and Shaneil Deo's direction, promises a thrilling cinematic experience. The film's Christmas release date makes it a perfect holiday offering for audiences seeking a blend of action, drama, and romance.
