Actor Adivi Sesh has wrapped up two upcoming films, Dacoit with Mrunal Thakur, and G2 with Wamiqa Gabbi. The two movies may be starkly different, with Dacoit being a romantic action drama, and G2, a spy thriller. But his takeaway from both projects is the same - that his two co-stars have helped him elevate his performances. The actor shares, "What makes the experience fulfilling is the exchange of ideas and energy that happens between us. We constantly discuss our characters and the emotional motivations behind them."

Sesh notes that Thakur and Gabbi have different approaches to their craft. What binds them, however, is how giving they are as co-stars. He elaborates, "Mrunal has this rare ability to listen as an actor. When your co-star gives you something so real, it forces you to elevate your [work]. Wamiqa is unpredictable [as an artiste]. She never repeats a beat, and you have to stay present because you don't know what she'll throw at you. That makes the work exciting."
