Dacoit Ek Prem Katha 1st day box office collection: Dacoit, the much-anticipated romantic action drama starring Adivi Sesh, finally hit theatres on April 10, 2026, after multiple postponements. Directed by debutant Shaniel Deo, the film opened to mixed reactions from audiences and critics alike. However, its box office performance on Day 1 has been quite encouraging.
The film generated solid buzz ahead of release, reflected in its advance bookings. Dacoit sold close to 100K tickets during pre-sales. Building on that momentum, the film recorded over 150K ticket sales on its opening day.
According to early trade estimates, Dacoit collected more than Rs 12 crore gross worldwide on Day 1, marking an impressive start at the box office. The weekend performance will be crucial in determining whether the film can sustain this momentum.
Alongside Adivi Sesh, the film features Mrunal Thakur as the female lead. The supporting cast includes notable names such as Anurag Kashyap, Prakash Raj, Sunil, Kamakshi Bhaskarla, and Zayn Marie Khan.
The film is produced by Supriya Yarlagadda under the banner of Annapurna Studios. It was simultaneously shot in Telugu and Hindi, aiming for a wider audience reach.
