Dacoit’s Box Office Success

Dacoit box office collection day 7: Shaneil Deo’s Dacoit: A Love Story was released in theatres on April 10. A week after its release, the Adivi Sesh , Mrunal Thakur and Anurag Kashyap-starrer has fared better than other April releases. However, it is a long way off from catching up to Sesh’s hit 2022 film, Major.
Comparing Dacoit to Other Releases
If we look at the other films that were released in April, Dacoit is faring better than them. Sharwanand and Rajasekhar’s much-hyped Biker opened to lukewarm reviews on April 3 and collected ₹ 12.70 crore net at the box office so far. Sangeeth Sobhan’s Rakasa, produced by Niharika Konidela , also opened the same day to mixed reviews and has collected ₹ 13.72 crore so far. While Dacoit has fared better than these, it has yet to catch up to and beat Sesh’s 2022 hit Major, which made ₹ 41.03 crore in its lifetime.

Dacoit tells the story of a convict who escapes prison and commits a series of robberies to take revenge on his ex-lover. It opened to lukewarm reviews compared to Sesh’s other films.
While ‘Dacoit’ shows promise and exceeds the performance of recent releases, it still has ground to cover to match the success of Adivi Sesh’s previous blockbuster, ‘Major.’ The film’s fate in the coming weeks will be crucial.
