The much-awaited bilingual action drama Dacoit, starring Adivi Sesh and Mrunal Thakur, has been creating quite a buzz nationwide. Originally slated for a December release, the film faced a delay after Sesh sustained an injury during filming. It will now hit theatres on March 19, 2026, coinciding with Gudi Padwa, Ugadi, and Eid. Interestingly, this new date aligns with the release of other major films, sparking talk of a box-office clash.
