Actress Mrunal Thakur is set to embrace an intense and gritty avatar in Dacoit, an upcoming action-drama starring Adivi Sesh. Following Shruti Haasan’s exit from the project, Mrunal has officially joined the cast, promising audiences a never-before-seen performance. The film, directed by Shaneil Deo in his debut, will be shot simultaneously in Hindi and Telugu, marking yet another bilingual venture for Mrunal and Adivi Sesh.
A Revenge Drama with High-Octane Action
Dacoit revolves around an angry convict who meticulously plots revenge against his former girlfriend after being betrayed. The film is packed with high-octane action sequences and an emotionally charged narrative. Mrunal Thakur’s addition comes as an exciting announcement, as she steps into a role that challenges her versatility as an actor.
Speaking about her character, Mrunal shared:
“The story of Dacoit is true in its essence—a great mixture of rustic storytelling elevated with the stylized vision of both Adivi Sesh and Shaneil Deo. The character I’m set to depict allows me to explore shades I haven’t explored before as an actor. This proposition, mixed with the genre and script of Dacoit, will truly make it a treat to watch for audiences. I can’t wait to deep dive into the world envisioned by Shaneil.”
Stellar Collaboration and Creative Team
Produced by Supriya Yarlagadda and co-produced by Suniel Narang, Dacoit promises top-notch production value. Shaneil Deo, known for his past collaborations with Adivi Sesh, brings his stylized storytelling to the director’s chair, co-developing the story and screenplay alongside Sesh himself.
Currently, the film’s shoot is underway in Hyderabad, with extended schedules planned in Maharashtra.
