Adivi Sesh Talks About Dacoit Clashing With Dhurandhar 2 and Toxic
A big box-office clash is expected on March 19, 2026, as the Telugu film Dacoit, starring Adivi Sesh, is scheduled for release alongside Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar 2 and Yash’s Toxic. The simultaneous release of these highly anticipated films, which coincides with Ugadi, Gudi Padwa, and Eid, has generated huge buzz in the film industry and among fans.
During the teaser launch event for Dacoit in Hyderabad, Adivi Sesh commented on the emerging competition with Dhurandhar 2 and Toxic. He said, “I gave this statement in 2022 also. Back then, Major came alongside Kamal Haasan sir’s Vikram and Yash Raj Films’ Samrat Prithviraj. I faced the same question during that time, and my answer remains the same. There might be many big fish in the sea, but we are the goldfish.”
Dacoit stars Adivi and Mrunal Thakur in leading roles. The teaser, which was released yesterday, provides a glimpse into the film’s storyline. In the movie, Adivi plays a thief who develops a strong affection for Mrunal’s character. He faces challenges from a police officer, played by Anurag Kashyap.
Adivi shared the teaser on social media, writing, “A racy glimpse into the world of #Dacoit with a new twist to #DacoitTeaser out now.” Dhurandhar 2 will star Ranveer in a sequel to the widely discussed spy action thriller, directed by Aditya Dhar. The first part, which recently released on December 5, has been praised for its impressive scale and intensity. This film will also see R Madhavan, Sanjay Dutt and Sara Arjun reprising their roles from the first part.
Meanwhile, Yash’s film Toxic has drawn attention, particularly after the actor’s release of a poster featuring a dark and moody visual. All three films are slated for a simultaneous release during a festive period, which has increased anticipation for the upcoming box-office clash.
