Dacoit continued its modest run at the domestic box office on its sixth day, collecting approximately ₹1.55 crore net in India. This brought the total India net collection to ₹27.05 crore and the India gross to ₹31.49 crore after six days. The film, which has relied heavily on its core Telugu audience, showed a predictable weekday slowdown but held better than many similar mid-budget releases facing stiff competition from other releases.
Early estimates for Day 7 (Thursday, April 16) indicate collections in the range of ₹1.30 crore India gross, reflecting a further dip amid low theatre occupancy around 7-8 per cent across key circuits. Advance bookings suggest limited footfalls, particularly outside Telugu-speaking regions, as the film grapples with mixed word-of-mouth and competition from holdover releases. The overall trend points to a stable but unspectacular performance driven primarily by the Telugu version.
The bilingual action-romantic drama has so far delivered consistent but not explosive numbers, with the opening weekend providing the bulk of its earnings. As it enters the second week, sustained audience interest in select markets will be crucial for any meaningful growth.

About Dacoit and Future Prediction
Dacoit: A Love Story is a bilingual action-romantic drama directed by Shaneil Deo, featuring Adivi Sesh and Mrunal Thakur in the lead roles alongside Anurag Kashyap, Prakash Raj, and others. The film follows the story of a former convict who reunites with his estranged lover for a series of high-stakes robberies, blending intense action sequences with emotional drama. Shot simultaneously in Telugu and Hindi, it marks another ambitious outing for Adivi Sesh, who has built a reputation for consistent mid-budget performers.
The movie opened to mixed reviews from critics and audiences, with praise for the lead performances and action choreography but some criticism regarding its pacing and narrative complexity. The Telugu version has driven the majority of collections, accounting for over 75 per cent of the domestic business, while the Hindi dubbed version has struggled to gain traction beyond limited screens.
Looking ahead, Dacoit is expected to maintain a steady but low trajectory in its second week. With current weekday occupancy remaining subdued and no major holiday boost in sight, the film may close its first week around ₹35 crore India gross. While it has already recovered a significant portion of its theatrical business in key territories, stronger word-of-mouth and improved holds will be essential for it to achieve an average or better verdict at the box office. The film’s performance highlights the continued strength of content-driven Telugu cinema but also underscores the challenges faced by bilingual releases in the Hindi belt.
