How Adivi Sesh pitched Dacoit to Anurag Kashyap
While Sesh and Mrunal Thakur play former lovers in this "angry love story", Anurag Kashyap portrays a fearless cop. How did Sesh, the film's actor and co-writer, convince Kashyap to come on board? Well, he did it in the most unexpected place - at Sobhita Dhulipala and Naga Chaitanya's December 2024 wedding in
"I pitched the film to him at the wedding itself," laughed Sesh. According to him, the filmmaker-turned-actor was also the go-to person when it came to fine-tuning the Hindi filmy dialogues. "We'd go to him to check how something should be said. It was like having a master craftsman on set," he added.

With action, drama and face-offs brewing, the film is shaping up to be a tense, adrenaline-packed ride. The story combines elements of crime, action, and romance. The film marks a shift for Sesh toward a more commercial format compared to his earlier investigative thrillers.
Initially eyeing an Ugadi release, Dacoit - which is shot in Hindi and Telugu - is now slated to hit theatres on April 10. The actor explained that the decision stemmed from limited showcasing in Hindi due to the dominance of Dhurandhar: The Revenge at the box office
Marking Shaneil Deo’s directorial debut, Dacoit: Ek Prem Katha is produced by Supriya Yarlagadda, co-produced by Suniel Narang, and presented by Annapurna Studios.
