Adivi Sesh is back with Dacoit — a crime thriller packed with twists, betrayal, romance, and a whole lot of convenient chaos.
In this episode of Paisa Vasool, Sravan and Taran break down whether Dacoit lives up to the standard of Adivi Sesh’s earlier films like Goodachari, Kshanam and Evaru, or whether this one falls into more routine territory.
They get into the performances from Adivi Sesh and Mrunal Thakur, the film’s multiple twists, the COVID-era setting, the shaky logic in the final act, and why this might still be one of the better Telugu films they’ve seen in a while, even if it is not quite top-tier Adivi Sesh.
Is Dacoit worth watching? Does the big twist actually work? And where does it rank among recent Telugu releases? Tune in for the full discussion.
