Dacoit

Director: Shaneil Deo

Actor: Adivi Sesh, Mrunal Thakur

Rating: 2 stars

Must acknowledge, the lead actor of this film, Adivi Sesh, is an auteur, alright. In the sense, as in this case — he writes the films he stars in.

I say this from having watched the only other film with Adivi, that he also wrote — the underrated, Major (2022), on the life and times of Bengaluru boy, Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan, the NSG commando, at the centre of Mumbai’s 26/11 attacks.
