\tAnnapurna Studios\u2019 upcoming Indian action drama \u201cDacoit\u201d has cast Mrunal Thakur (\u201cSita Ramam\u201d) as the female lead opposite Adivi Sesh (\u201cMajor\u201d). <\/p>\n
\tThe film, which marks the directorial debut of Shaneil Deo, follows an angry convict plotting revenge against his former girlfriend who betrayed him. The project, produced by Supriya Yarlagadda and co-produced by Suniel Narang, is being shot simultaneously in the Hindi and Telugu languages. Deo collaborated with Adivi Sesh on the story and screenplay.<\/p>\n
\tProduction is currently underway in Hyderabad, with plans for an extensive shooting schedule in Maharashtra. Breaking from tradition, Adivi Sesh chose to announce his leading lady on his birthday, rather than making it about himself. \t<\/p>\n
\t\u201c\u2018Dacoit\u2019 is a solid action film with a touching love story,\u201d says Adivi Sesh. \u201cMrunal has brought some of the finest characters to life on the big screen, bringing a unique panache to each role. Her exceptional ability to elevate every character she portrays makes her truly remarkable. We are thrilled to welcome Mrunal to the \u2018Dacoit\u2019 team and eagerly await going head-to-head on the big screens.\u201d <\/p>\n
\t\t\t \t\t\tPopular on Variety\t\t \t \t\t \t \tThakur adds, \u201cThe story of \u2018Dacoit\u2019 is true in its essence, a great mixture of rustic storytelling that is elevated with the stylized vision of both Adivi Sesh and Shaneil Deo. The character I\u2019m set to depict in the films will allow me to explore shades of playing an on-screen character that I haven\u2019t explored before as an actor. This proposition mixed with the genre and script of \u2018Dacoit\u2019 is what will truly make it a treat to watch for the audiences. I can\u2019t wait to deep dive into the world envisioned by Shaneil.\u201d<\/p>\n
\tDirector Deo said: \u201cWe are delighted to have Mrunal Thakur join the team of \u2018Dacoit.\u2019 Her versatility and ability to bring depth to her characters make her the perfect fit for this action-packed drama. This also marks the first time Adivi Sesh and Mrunal are coming together for a film. With this unique pairing and the story we are bringing to life, I am looking forward to audiences witnessing her in this powerful and distinctive role, and experiencing the on-screen chemistry that Adivi Sesh and Mrunal are creating together in their first project.\u201d<\/p>\n
\tProducer Yarlagadda adds, \u201cWe are thrilled to welcome Mrunal Thakur to \u2018Dacoit.\u2019 Her phenomenal performances and exceptional talent make her the perfect choice for this role. It\u2019s exciting to have her on board as the leading lady alongside Adivi Sesh for this journey, and we can\u2019t wait to see the magic she brings to the film.
