Dacoit, starring Adivi Sesh and Mrunal Thakur in the lead, will hit the cinemas on March 19, 2026. The Ugadi release is quite daring.
On the same date, Yash's Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups will be released. However, it is very much possible that industry insiders believe Toxic won't stick to the date. Which may have convinced the makers of Dacoit to pick the date.
Even if Toxic gets postponed, Dacoit will face unenviable levels of competition from two big-ticket, pan-Indian movies in a week's time: Ram Charan's Peddi and Nani's The Paradise are scheduled to grace the big screens in the last week of March without fail. Neither of them is likely to see a postponement.
Why has Dacoit been postponed from Christmas 2025?
Adivi Sesh suffered an injury and his recovery took longer than expected.
