Dacoit X review
Many called it a technically strong movie, with a good screenplay, even though the writing felt similar at times. Despite the flaws, some moments with twists made it engaging. One called the film Adivi and Mrunal's career-best performances.
One wrote that the "twist is powerful and leaves a strong impact. It ends on an emotional high, with touching moments that stay with you."
Many praised the music and the cinematography.
"#Dacoit is a technically strong action-love story with uneven writing. Some engaging moments, but predictable screenplay and over-the-top climax hold it back. Adivi Sesh performs well; overall, good watch (sic)," wrote one user on X.
Here are netizens' reactions to Dacoit on X.
Dacoit story
Dacoit follows Hari (played by Sesh), a simple man who falls in love with Juliet (played by Thakur). Both dream of getting married and having children. But their relationship is forbidden, with caste as the enemy.
Juliet betrays Hari, and he is wrongly convicted of a crime he never committed. But he breaks out, and comes back with vengeance.
Earlier, while talking about Dacoit, Adivi had said, “I think it’s an extremely emotionally charged and angry story. Dacoit has laughter, there’s anger, there are tears—there’s every emotion that should be there in movies. The film is told from the perspective of a neo-Western.”
Dacoit box office
Dacoit has collected Rs 1.40 crore so far from 1,748 shows with 21% occupancy.
