Mrunal Thakur replaces Shruti Haasan in Adivi Sesh’s Dacoit, see first poster

Announcing the cast change, Adivi Sesh shared posters of Dacoit featuring both the actors, and wrote, “Yes, you loved.. But you also betrayed me. I have to avenge it.” These posters assert that Dacoit will be an action drama slathered with a strong romantic story at the core of it. 

Here’s the post:

Haan pyaar kiya..

Par dhoka diya..🫵

Badla toh lena padega..💥

हाँ प्यार किया..

पर धोका दिया…🫵

बदला तो लेना पड़ेगा…💥

Get ready for #DACOIT @mrunal0801 https://t.co/d3idXcfyY9 pic.twitter.com/Go13FLmtWQ
